Lysa has been permanently banned for botting. She/he may ask for a reset if she so chooses.

i dont wanna protect botters but protect the innocent!
i cant see any reason for banning lysa....
the picture shows no botter and no evidence !
there is no time left....
everything plays within 1min(22:43)maybe in some seconds?

it shows injustice and misuse of gamemasterpower

But thats the problem of the gamemaster noobs

bye

There is a protocol. GMs ask for 5 minutes continuously for answer. If the player is not at the keyboard, he/she will be banned. Simple and linear. Not an abuse of power. Anyway, the screenshoot is not a proof, but it is the GM's witness. Please think before posting.

where is the protokol??

Ask GMs for more information. They are also the moderators of this Section of the forum, they will explain you for sure how a player is recognized as a bot. Have fun.

The protocol exists and will be publicly accessible by tonight.

So if the respective GM did log what he said, you will be able to check what he/she did.



It is actually very easy to identify a "primitive" botter. The accused is standing somewhere fighting monsters and NOT moving. He/she doesn't resond to anything. He/she doesn't use emotes. And he/she doesn't pick up drops.
Every movement, every smiley and every "hi" will be treated like an answer in this case.
To normal players something like that might happen quite often. But since the rule about botting should be clear, very (!) few people will try to not respond to a GM. If that is indeed so, not-answering is their own problem, cause they should have known better. That doesn't sound very nice, but this kind of handling is necessary to provide a good anti-bot-system with the help of every single player.
Besides, it is the wish of most players that something is done against bots in the first place, not the GMs'.
