The Lack of Bots. Simple as that. Hat’s off to CCP for pulling out as many stops as they can to fix things but the BEST thing that happened to EvE over the last 7 days is the lack of Chat/Local and the POPUP of random windows that BOT’s cannot deal with. The unpredictability of (Chat/Local) has produced something good that Team Security need to react to. I truly hope they get the resources within the company to build on and learn from this since it is not often that events like this happen, but when they do……………… OH BOY does it expose the cheats, ---

So let me get this straight… You think that the guys making thousands of dollars a day fapping into socks while their code kill regions worth of anomalies afk do not have the bot written to automate notification of any unexpected situation so that they can immediately modify to suit? You really are cream of the crop man in all likelyhood this only caused proliferation, as the botters downgraded to hyperions or VNIs to afk in instead of Hel’s, and added more accounts to compensate ---

So watch and see which accounts of the “bot” toons are not there and when they come back. This will help I.D a lot of them and then they can be dealt with. Also we as players need to start pointing out bots even those players in our own corp/alliances doing it. If more ppl did that maybe we could cut out a lot of the bot in game. CCP sshould make a BOT reporting post and then watch it the ppl who abuse that chanell also should go along with the bots but really there is no way u can totally elimte all the bots in game ---

There is no guarantee you won’t just get scammed in some way anyways. Exactly the same goes for drugs but that logic doesn’t stop any addict getting their fix. Also it is possible the botsoftware ironically has a module of the DDOS botnet code in it. ---
