I parked my ship near Urlen solar system to scan haulers so can gank them if they have something valuable in ship. I noticed that same haulers passing over and over again so I have added them to watch list to avoid scan them again . Now I have 107 haulers in my watch list that doing courier missions 23/7. All day they behave same ... I tried to follow one of them and noticed : each time they dock ,finish mission , they log out then log in and continue doing that 23 hours per day:
I will mention their names and apologize in advance if I said player name who really plays eve 23 hours per day

You really should use commas for your list; difficult to tell when one name ends and the next begins.

Clearly you're wrong. Only nullsec has bots, the deadly nature and complex PvE of highsec is impossible to bot. |

ffs, what is this? Junior detective week?
WUT DID YOU SAY TO COLE PHELPS??!!??! The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy |

If you have evidence of botting report it to CCP with the report bot function.
Just remember to get details details DETAILS! Many people do distribution missions at work because it is a slow but little risk way to make funds and raise standing. That is not botting but easy to look like it is.
Just remember to gather as many details and behaviors that can help CCP identify them as a bot. They need evidence to use the ban hammer. |

Someone should remind those hi sec bots, that this is a social game and a pvp one. It is unnaceptable to always be in hi sec. All those bots are ruining this game by not participating in null sec pvp. Threads like this generally result in anything positive.

Funny. First you get a fusillade of griping about botters. Then, you get a list of offenders and how the tune changes. Bot spotting. Should be the title of a movie.

Umm ... I have run bots before in a game, to test the NPCs before implementing them. You don't need 4-5 computers.
All they are is scripted code that can run in a .bat file and looks like a DOS window scrolling through code. They don't load graphical features and all sorts of code such as UI and object interaction gets thrown out. For the purpose of that NPC, it knows what it does and only needs to code to do that job.
Edit: To have some idea easily, load bots in a LAN game of Counter Strike. All those characters are doing roughly the same things as players but they are running on a single client. Ideas & Stuff EVE - the game of sand castles, either building them or kicking them down. -áStatus: Going phishing. |

Add me to the list then. I don't bot, but I dislike the idea of this type of vigilante justice where somebody simply posts an accusation and names a bunch of players. They may all be bots, but there are channels for dealing with this type of ****. |

If you think they are bots, report them along with supporting evidence. If you don't care enough to do that, don't post it here. |

Nowhere in the game description does it say that this is strictly a social game based entirely on PvP.
People have the right to play this game the way they want to play. Whether it's doing PvE in high sec or PvP in nul sec.
For the first year or so of playing this game, I was on-line 23/7 doing missions in high sec. As for there being bots in-game, gather evidence and report it.
Funny how the OP states that he tried to follow one of them. I say that his evidence is inconclusive and circumstantial at best. |

Did you perhaps log out then log in after each mission 23 hours with over 100 accounts ??

If there are GM's in-game, I'm sure CCP would not find it difficult to script a simple "signs of intelligence" challenge request. In other words, should they suspect player A is a bot, the GM could fire-up a command, target the suspected bot, or simply type-in suspected bot name.
The bot would get a pop-up on the screen, something along the lines of those authentication letters/numbers one finds on forums when signing-up for the first time. If a reply was not forthcoming within a set period of time or the wrong challenge code was sent back, another test goes out with a different challenge code. Failing this one, one could surmise it is a bot. It could be made so that screen-scraping would fail.
It may very well be someone AFK, but would they then be flying around, jumping gates and doing missions, all while AFK?
Just a thought. GM's probably (hopefully) already have something along these lines at their disposal. The problem of course is identifying possible targets.

All bots must die. They screw the live player who devotes time and effort to playing the game and earning isk. Or, we could just make this game into a giant script vs. script MMO. Could be interesting, like AI chess program vs. AI chess program. (In other words, don't understand while people are flaming OP for reporting what looks like a game exploit). |
