Please elaborate on how one would accomplish that? You’re talking bollocks.

Considering everything that’s come to light recently, actually no 😛 There’s individual botting, and organised botting. There’s PVE botting, and there’s specialised botting.

CCP’s been focusing on the individual pve botting. They gave you some flawed statistics, in the hope you’d bite down on that focus and ignore the rest.

Omega / Alpha isn’t the demarcation line indeed. But the difference in focus against botting, that however is.

Also, it’s become quite popular to run accounts on the side, via AWS and other such services. Ignored by CCP, even though it has become quite the topic in the industry itself.
