What do you think about anti-bot monsters? - Combattente - 2008-07-31
As title, what do you think about anti-bot monsters?
Should they be implemented on GMS? Would they affect somehow people's training?
I personally would like having them implemented, because I think it's funny dropping something on an "altar" or clicking on a NPC to make the anti bot monster killable, then killing it.
Do you think NEXON will ever implement them on GMS? The last time the Anti-bot Witch of El Nath was implemented for a mistake.. but that doesn't mean they're going to implement those soon. We have the platforms where we can drop the Zombie teeth to make the Zombie maps' anti-bot monster killable, but we still don't have the anti-bot monster itself..

I sort of do, sort of don't. I don't because there are hardly any botters any more, and with all Nexon's mess ups and glitches, they may autoban you or disrupt your training. But I do because it will catch whoever's left for botting, and it'll be fun to kill. But seriously, implementing it at skelegons will piss off Bishops, etc. And they can't put them on every single map...

We don't really need them but we probably will get them because they're in the monster book.

Well, actually they're not on every single map on KMS. They are just in some of the "most populated" maps, like the Wraith place, Zombies place, etc.

It'd be funny to collect Pink Bean's card, too.
Yeah, there's Pink Bean in the Monster Book. Lols.

They're not in the maps that need them now.
Like most of the Ludi maps. o_o
And that one Birk map.
But otherwise they're pretty cool, and I would like to stumble on one every once in a while.

It would slow down people's training and some people would complain about it "hindering" their "grinding".
That being said, MS has given us the freedom of not having them there and they've been abused at times. I think maplers have no one to blame but themselves as a group for this (I know its mostly the meso farmers/hackers who are at fault but... yeah >_>).

Really, the bot-catching monsters aren't so annoying. IF they are there, though they usually aren't, they appear as soon as you kill the first monster. If you attack indiscriminately then yeah, you'll probably get sent back. It announces when they spawn in blue text, like Snowman, so if it does spawn you'll know it. As soon as you see the blue text, just go through with the procedure and continue training. From that point on the botcatching monster just becomes a normal mob.
Also, they spawn in sparsely populated maps. The last map of Wraiths on both ends, the second map from El Nath and the map of all pangs, KFT (Lol). The only place that it might be annoying is STDs, and there's still dozens of people botting there in KMS so it must not be that annoying. >_>
They are all over the place in Magatia however that town is so popular I rarely see them. In fact, I've never seen the Security Camera monster, I don't even know where it spawns.

I don't mind Bot-catching monsters. They don't affect me. I would want them if Monster Book came, though.

[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]They'll prob help breakup the monotony of grinding
Of course, you'll have some idiots running around logging tickets about how getting rid of it wastes 2 minutes of their oh-so-precious training time.[/COLOR]

Oh, I meant
Hackers/botters don't really exist in the places anti-bot monsters are.
I mean I haven't really seen any in the Coolies map.
Either that or I'm just plain blind.

They are completly useless for me,since no one hacks in the map they added it =)
Whats the point to hack on,hmmm,that El nath map where the queen respawn?
With a good hack,you can train in another place =)
So,they are COMPLETLY USELESS =D

If I am a botter-
and I have half a brain-
I would just NOT bot on that map.
I'd go somewhere no one trains too.
I remember Back in the beggining of the year I was looking around drakes being dumb..
And on one of the latter maps
EVERY CHANNEL had hackers.-One tried to mob kill me. Thank god for Door.
But really... I don't see too many either- for now.:f6:

Once again, not to stop hackers. It's to stop botters. And no, apparently they aren't smart enough to find other maps because almost all the maps they bot on have bot-catching monsters. It doesn't even stop them any more, they're that advanced.
