> Trying to talk people out of botting would just give them the disadvantage of being a decent player. So probably I would tell them something along the lines of that: “Botting is bad for EVE, but if you don’t bot, it’s bad for you.”

This is basicly telling yourself commiting a crime is okay because others do as well. I don’t bot, don’t see any reason to ever bot; also not as a new wanting to be a “decent” player. Nobody needs to bot to have fun at EvE. Comments like yours are just an excuse to make yourself feel better doing the wrong thing.

PS: botting is bad for the game.
