As the title sais, this is not a whine just a request even though it won't make much difference, here it goes.

Please unless you are in a grp please don't bot. This is mostly focused towards stealthers. I understand that you want to make a name for yourself and stuff like that but couldn't you try without a bot? Me (damindeyon) and my friend (Vluwi) did pretty darn all right yesterday without any bot.

Please don't flame, i'm just kindly asking people to either put their bot in to play or don't use it at all, bg is not lvl 50 RvR.

makes no diff m8
look at it this way
assume eveyone didnt use a bot for a second, then one person does..
he/she will win hands down (unless a complete gimp), then the person who just died wil bring on their bot so on so forth

Then i have a request...stealthers..please dont stealth or apply poisons to the weapons...savages..dont hit so hard...BD's..dont summon pets..etc...asking somebody NOT to do something (when the reason they have a 2nd account is for a BB) is the same as saying, dont use any advantage you can to win a fight. It is not going to happen..the reason is simple "If they have one..i am going to use one". Been like that for a long time now.

I understand your arguement but telling a nightshade not to use poison or savage not to use ... dmg? is not the same thing as telling people not to bot. To be quite frank I think you know the difference is major and just don't want pun because you use a buffbot

stuff > 1 account

buffs that can not be touched (exploit is some people arguement) > 2 accounts

No offence, but saying that you shouldn't use bots in bgs is like saying you shouldn't duo in bgs. I use a bot in bgs because I'm always solo ( if I don't duo with some random mate which I rarely do, did duo with Salv last night though ;) ). When you're jumped by 2 infs / ns's / scouts etc it's damn hard. And far from everyone reads FH, so posting anything like that here wouldn't help. Someone would use a bb, when he gets killed and the stealthers see it they go mad etc and getting their bb.

I don't care if you want to grp with loads of ppl :) heck 90% of all the infiltrators stay very close to the zerg or other infs, like today me and vluwi (<3) totally raped 2 infs (who were buffed FYI) and what happens 2 sec later? fg running towards us but we figure HEY we can escape, we got stealth but then my friend gets arrow pelted into her back, CRASH OUCH AUGH sorry but anyway, THERE IS A HUGE DIFFERNCE BETWEEN GRPING AND NOT BOTTINT. There, you know it, I know it, everyone knows it, the difference between botting and grping is that, the advantages of a grp can be removed (i.e killing) but the advantages of a bot can not be removed, and you can STILL grp with someone else AND provide that person with buffs, don't compare grping with botting please, they are very different no matter what arguement you choose to pull.

:touch: <<< unbuffed inf

:twak: <<< buffed inf

you yourself just said that you were a duo...isnt that an unfair advantage to my Theurg??...combined with stealth...and poison = /release and report....of course i will use a buffbot to level out that playing field. And, just because somebody recieves lvl 20-24 buffs does not make then indestructable. I know it..you know it. I took my Infil through the BGs totally unbuffed. And he managed quite well. I did team up a few times with Kougar (really good scout) and we did hold our own. basically, shit happens..zergs...duos..getting outnumbered and buffbots. pretty soon most people will have them. And to be honest, if you don't go with the flow....you are gonna drown.

Sorry about your theurg and I doubt that even if you soloed botted (which you shouldn't) you would still get your ass handed to you by any stealthers. Yeah ofc you can go thru bg without buffs its totally viable but that does not justify why people should have to use buffbots in bg, I mean cmon bg? The place everyone reffers to as n00b training grounds? It seems to me you people are trying to tell me that because you solo you deserve a buffbot? well fyi there are loads of other soloers out there.

Buffbots don't remove ANYTHING that you might want to get, they ONLY give unfair advantages over someone else because of the IRL status etc. I'm not saying remove buffbots (that would be sweet) because i'm realistic enough to know that will never happen but all I am saying is, couldn't you keep it to your lvl 50s instead? Or put it into play? The reason I came to bg is because I thought it would be more fair (which it is) and I stand a chance (I do) but it would be paradise without buffs, note also the difference between buffers and buffbots.

Thats an odd request since I believe that a lot of peeps have 2 accounts and can use /level command to get a bot really quick to bg1 atleast.

Anotherthing is that if you had 2 accounts your self, wouldnt you have/use a bot in bg aswell, regarding that you pay for both accounts? And when im in bg (wich happens from time to time, soon there with yet another sb, most stealther i put down is buffed to kingdome come, goes for me aswell so im not complaining, and what is it that say that they havent been buffed by an active player? Nothing so yeah you can ask but still its like saying dont get crafted/sced gear to your toon, it gives you an advantage to players who dont.

I do get crafted/sced because i can/cares about it and i use a BB because i have 2 accounts...
Look at BG as a warmup for real RvR :) in real RvR ppl use BBs with much better buffs mmkay ;)

You whine about bots?

Well if you don't like bots then why do you duo, duoing is far worse than bots if you ask me.

Even in big boy RvR the whole stealthzerg thing gets on my tits. I go to the bg's to get away from that. I like running solo (botted or unbotted I don't care depends on whether I have a healer or shammy of the right level) and the bg's can be fun, but even in the bg's i know if I get attacked by an infil there is bound to be a second or third about somewhere.

And that's not even considering the times when I've been wandering round and suddenly about 4 or 5 scouts pop (usually only when i'm engaged in battle with someone else)

I don't choose to grp more than 1 person, but the last few days its been pretty sick when it comes to stealthers, all infs running around with alb zerg and all shadowblades going in numbers of 3+ (if you are are hearing this Emmah or visznu I lub you guys :p). Anyway as I said you all seem to think its perfectly fine so I can't do anything, as I said it's just a request and to be honest I was not expecting a single person to listen. And no even if I could have a 2nd account which FYI I can I just think it is wrong, like today me and vluwi were grping as usual then a 3rd member joined and buffed us. even though I did keep the buffs because of emmah and vizsnu and gang I did not feel powerful nor happy with it.
