[Announcement 12/16/08] Public Ban List and more

It looks like this time NCSoft is going much stronger against bots (luckily!)...

Not just that they announced the recent bannings, they also made the list of banned bots public

You can find the translated news and list here: Übersetzte Version von http://aion.plaync.co.kr/board/notice/view?articleID=240&page=

Also there are several other news regarding on how to report bots, how you can help etc. ! They are even banning IP address now of bot users...

Looks like they really want to avoid the problems they had with L2, even though Aion doesnt cater much to bots anyway due to the game mechanics.

Hopefully they really continue this trend... but I really think so, because if you see on how much detail and love they put into this game, I would really wonder if they would let it overrun by bots

Kind regards,
LD

I still see them in the game, mostly in passive mob area's and they are like 3 lvls higher than the mobs. Will see how it goes as time passes.

This is certainly good news! This is the first time I've ever seen a company publicly announcing their ban list, and I completely support it. Not only will this "threaten" current bot users, but might prevent a handful of future bot cases by disencouraging players who have been looking for ways to cheat.

Bots banned, that is allways good news, no matter the quantity, that will make people think twice before go into botting.

Really great news. Seems they have their own "Task Force" focused on this issue, same as SE did in FFXI to ban all the Gil sellers and bots.

I'd like to encourage you to turn up the intellectual content of your posts. Seriously I think my brain is leaking after reading this.



TL;DR version just for you in case one sentence is too much for you to absorb in one sitting:

Less dumb, more smart.

Atleast it's a start and we'll see from here. Botters will allways excist, but them finally showing signs to lower botting can only be seen as positive.

If you're playing on an IP that is associated with the Bots, you should probably be banned...

If you're concerned about things like that, I'm concerned what programs you will be running.
