Does Shiva server have any linkshells which use botting to claim HNMs?

To answer this question, is to stir up a barrel of monkeys.

But to be honest, I don't know. All I know is rumors.

Actually, botting is not only 100% possible, it is still widely used. They are used for "big" things (like claiming HNM mobs), as well as "small" things (like fish bot). And yes, fish botting still exists.

Only way to get rid of it is to get rid of the vulnerabilities which allows programs like Windower to work. Somehow I doubt many are willing to give up their windower just to get rid of some pesky ol botters.

I talked my wife into fishing for me for about 45 minutes, does that count as a bot?

I know of one HNMLS that has admitting to botting kings recently, but don't really feel like adding the drama of naming them.

But to answer your question, yes.

Umm no. It probably wasn't worth it in the end. She fished a bit for me, maybe 2 stacks of moat carp and I ended up mowing the lawn (this was last summer). Not only is mowing the lawn a pita but I also had to listen to her about how fishing was boring...and she only did it for 45 minutes.

I only know of one LS that does for sure, the most known botting LS on the server, Xtreme.

But there are a couple others I suspect, though nothing can be proven about them, at least by me.

The most obvious 2 are Xtreme and Integration. I know that Nano isnt all to against it cuz they considering letting in people i know that bot **** hardcore for that reason alone. And theres more weather people want to admit/accept it or not.
