You disagree? I see multiple games with multiple bots going 24/7 with 2.5-3 minute games yet if we are muling, xferring or just playing normally we get realmed sometimes for up to 12hr even if game times have been long.

Bots have clearly kept the game alive

First, bots have provided the majority of the income that blizzard has made off the game. Without the money from cd keys, blizzard couldn’t justify keeping the game servers up

Secondly, bots have kept prices low for everyone to be able to play the game. Without these lower prices, people would fall off the game due to the intense grind because of the itemization concepts around this game make it virtually impossible for a legit person to gear a character without the help of bots

Thirdly, bots have made leveling easier, even if you don’t not yourself. The good runs with minimal deaths that are fast gets people able to level up quicker and able to start finding their own gear quicker.

Fourth, bots enable pvp to happen at a large scale every ladder season. Even with mass bots, it takes 1-2 months for pvp to get off the ground. Without bots, it would take longer than the ladder season for pvp to become viable. And with pvp being viable, it gives the small amount of pvm only people a market to sell to. Without the pvp people, the game dies.


This game is just incredibly to much of a grind without bots to hold peoples attention for a long time. Thank god for the bots.



exploiting real $ loopholes on jsp has kept BOTTING alive, and d2 just happens to be the easiest to bot because its old and blizz doesnt put any effort to stop it

most botters wouldnt bot if they lost their little side $ hussle

IMO blizz should publicly shame botters on Facebook.

When they do a banwave take the associated user name, and use it to run a script that publicly post on the user’s Facebook and shames them that they have been caught botting.

That will reduce botting significantly
