I really don't get the reason for this thread. OP states that the game is ruined and that bots provide the player counts that make game look populated, then in the next breath states that he is still making money hand over fist. If OP is making that much money that means there are lots of players, so that makes the game healthy right? Also bots would never do anything to make the game look populated, they never play public.
5000 hours on 200 bots, that does not sound like a lot for a 24/7 operation.
$5 or $6 dollars for reasonably rare items does not make sense either. That is a lot of electricity and infrastructure for 5 or 6 dollars. How many hours on average does it take to get a Thunderfury or SoH. That made sense in the old AH when BiS gear sold for 50-100 and you could sell whatever you found.
How is a post like this ever going to make the game better? If the OP is being truthful he is delusional and if he is lying he is a douche.
I said well over 5000 hours I did not give you my exact play time because if I did you could easily locate my accounts. Also I said the game is dead by players I didn't say that there were none at all. Please get your points right, you act like it takes 100s of computers to run my bots. I do it all from 1 computer. That is not what the thread is about, the thread is to provide users information on how shady blizzard is. This is an attempt to get blizzard to wake up.
So, well over 5000 is that like 6000 or 10,000. I have 2800+ on a non-botted account, so forgive me for not thinking that 5000+ is that much for 24/7/200 operation like yours obviously is Just a hint when you are making up numbers, just run a few calculations to work out what is feasible. For you to be making the most of those 200 bots and making the big bucks you must be servicing a lot of players at 5 bucks a pop.
You have 200 bots running on one computer that is a mighty effort, well done.
Now back to the point of the post. You are trying to provide a public service by telling people on a 3rd party site about how shady Blizzard is for not putting enough effort into shutting down more botters and getting Blizzard to wake up? Right.
Now that gear is BoA and there is no AH I could give two shits what botters are doing. If your bots got banned tomorrow or run for the next 10 years I would not see an impact. So once again, what is this fantastic public service that you are trying to provide?

Haha yeah.. well over 5000 hours.. that means he has been running his 200 bots for WELL OVER ONE DAY! What a hero!
...Well i am curious about how this problem that truly exist in D3, booting is not taken serious about many of you guys!Don't we have google search for proofs or youtube?It just don't mater if this guys its 100% acurate in wot he is teling us.What it mathers its that this problem its real.
Some of you discredit him on the mather ,realy?....Leme ask you wot its the moust important think the new patch will bring?The new ladder sistem on seasons?
So they will ad to the game a "real" competitive gamplay as wot they say.How you will compete with a person that bot?
Or maibe you dont care about the new sistem Blizz will ad!I dont personaly ,but many do care and will only drove them away when the competition its not fair...but wathever.
Personally I really don't care what the top players are doing. I am interested in what I can do, so yes I will look at what my clan mates are doing but I don't see this as a competition. I mean do you really look at the paragon and elemental/elite damage rankings on DiabloProgress with anything more than slight interest? Any player who gets to the absolute top will most likely do so by playing the game in a way that is more achievement based than fun based. I prefer D3 to have a little fun thrown into the grind.
It is not a single player game. If it was a single player game we would have offline mode and not require internet connection. Sorry that Blizzard has brain washed all you fanbois in thinking this is a single player game.
My point was that this guy could bot, hack, do w/e the hell he wanted and it would have 0 effect on my game because this game has 0 online-interaction... It may be online, but it barely benefits from it.
As a side note... How is me saying this game fails at utilizing the fact that it's online me being a "brain washed fanboi"? Surely it would make me the opposite, seems your just spouting out random insults there :S.

So, I told you that I had well over 5000 hours played on each account I did not provide you exact amount because im not stupid. I am sorry that you and everyone else thinks because of BOA that it wont effect you but I can still sell items/gold/and powerlevel in seasons and you wont be top of charts botters will.
I have to thank you so much for informing me what is truly important to me as a D3 player.
You really don't see what an average player sees in the ladder system, it is a way to see progression beyond T6 and allow others to see it as well. Personally I will not spend much time watching the world leaderboards, much more interested in my friends list and clan.
Do I really care if the top of the chart is some botter or a nolifer that plays 15+ hours a day? The top of the paragon charts are human players that stream everyday, I am not sure if the botting scripts could even keep up with them but who cares?
BoA means that people in my clan are finding there own gear and having fun doing it. That is all that matters and was not the case before BoA where you were much better off spending time playing the AH than the game.
That is why I say botters do nothing to affect me.
So again, what are you doing here? If you have a problem with the game, the fact that you are possibly running 200 bots and making money has nothing to do with it. You are just playing with your epeen.
@OP
You can bot on 10000000 accounts and 99,99% of the community doesnt give a #$%&.
Bots are worth nothing in a game without economy, you can bot for your own satisfaction tho.
Any chance you could share some more info on your server theory?
What type of information are you looking for? I can provide you what I think you are asking but let me know if you have specific questions.
So what I am going to do is give you a table of items
1.Head5. Amulet
2.Chest6. Left hand
3.Legs 7. Right hand
4.Ring8. Gloves
This is not a full table but an example I hope you can follow along: So we take the above table and we make 1000 iterations of it to cover all items. These tables are selected when you start a game. The table is determined on the server you are on. So lets say you get the following server numbers
215, 185, 144, 224, 185 & 111
These servers all have the same loot table, when you create a game (server 215)and start farming you find a legendary! Well say its WoH wand and you are done with the run say greater rift. You leave game join another and the server you get on is 185. You grind and boom another WoH, some people say this is RNG. This is not RNG, people all the time on Diablo 3 forums bring up questions of "why do I find the same legendary all the time" prior to 1.8 I had this issue with Hellrack crossbow where I couldn't seem to get off the servers that dropped it ended up with 1000 hellracks before it finally put me on a server with different loot tables.
Edit #1: If you want to find out what legendarys drop from what servers it is easy. Make excel spreadsheet and everytime you find legendary add it to the server # after you find all legendarys you will see in plain view of excel spreadsheet the loot tables. I would provide mine however I think they would frown on me here if I gave you Blizzards Server Loot tables.
Thanks for that info. How do you determine which server you're currently connected to?
Also I don't think anyone would frown upon you at all for sharing which servers you've found which loot on. Infact I'd say it would be highly valued in the community.
If nothing else, shoot me a PM on which server/IPs you've found Wand of Woh and SMK!
You know your contradicting yourself? Right you say you want blizzard to care more about botters and yet you yourself provide the botting service? Isn't that a bit hypocritical?
That's like saying "Hell, since blizzard doesn't care, I might as well add to the problem and bot as well." Then again blizzard wants your money, you want money for your botting services, what's the difference? In the first place you wouldn't have your so called service if D3 wasn't made in the first place. You should actually be grateful you can pay bills off D3.
IMO there will probably be botters in every RPG, be in D3, WoW, Guild Wars. Which makes it harder for blizzard is that it has the largest consumer base across 4 games and even an up-and-coming Heroes of the Storm. WoW alone has at least 7.8 million subs + 2.7 D3:ROS subs that already 10million. Try running a scan on all 10million of those players while running Customer Complaints to GMs, Server Maintenance etc. And trying to please every single player in the consumer base.
Be real, no one can ever please everyone. So your cause of concern wouldn't really be a real concern unless like 30% of the consumer population thinks it's a problem.
Isn't it funny that the OP has answered everything else than mine?
I say this again: I lost over 2000 bot accounts to Warden.And most of them were on regular days, not on ban waves. So Blizzard care about bots and ban them regularly. So either you are extremely lucky, or lying.
Edit: Oh, and no, there is no loot server or anything like that. I can say this from the data I've gathered so far.
Dude, this is nothing. We know that blizzard does not ban botters as often as they could. It's been like this since day 1. And, we all know about the loot server theory so you didn't exactly provide us with new info there either. So stop talking about proof when you have absolutely zero of it.
TLDR of the thread: OP claims he bots and that loot servers exist... yeepeey!
ITT: Idiot who refuses to supply evidence not understanding the irony of everyone else debunking his theories with the same inside-out logic.
For the record, I know for a fact that Jesus was actually a Korean zombie who had a foot fetish and liked to be cuckolded while listening to Hootie and the Blowfish CDs because Steve Jobs went back in time to invent the CD player for our Lord and Savior. Furthermore, his mother, Mary, was actually a transgendered Puerto Rican rococo dancer whose stage name was Slutty Miguel whose favorite food was sushi and was also an avid fan of the WNBA. Jesus also had a half-brother from a legal adoption his father and gay life-partner (Stephen) had before Joseph realized he liked unshaven women more than oily men. His brother, 34 years his elder, and in fact older than both his parents, was named Evgeni and he liked to play Nintendo but never really understood why the fuck Battletoads had to be SO FUCKING HARD.
Don't ask me for proof. Just believe. Inhale deeply and believe.
