I dont understand, are the public meant to believe you are not botting simply because you claim not to be botting. Now i am not claiming you are botting, it hardly matters what with how well you are performing.
But lets say you were, would you really come on the public forums and admit to botting.
So there is no point in claiming not to bot, because you are hardly a reliable source on the matter, given your history no?
I'm sure the rest of my tribe will be more than happy to inform you of how inactive I am... srsly, if I was botting, I certainly wouldn't have such a low total hauled.
Plus, by your logic, anyone that knows how to bot may be botting for all we know. They have never been caught at it, but I would wager there are people who ARE botting on this world, and indeed, I'm certain there are certain players in Pandas (and probably a few in evoL) who are well aware of how to make/use bots... and indeed we have no way of 100% determining whether they are using one or not, beyond their word.
So yeah, if you choose not to believe me, I really am not too fussed. Botting on not,and despite how inactive I am; I'm still just chugging along, and until my university started, I was matching Nauzhror's daily haulage rate (hence the daily conversations along the lines of "How much have you hauled?" etc). There came a time when Nauz and a few others in Pandas were working out the rankings as to who had hauled the most in the world; I believe I was put in 5th place, which considering how nooby I consider myself at startup, is not really too bad at all.
Naturally, Nauzhror had the advantage of LC as a pose to my HC, so it was inevitable he would overtake my total hauled at one point; but I think this proves that just because I do not bot does not mean I'm entirely useless. I'm sure players such as yourself (Wardy) or Tom (Nauz's co) would like to think otherwise; Thus I will enjoy seeing whether you manage to get close enough to myself in K44 (or vice-versa, if I get near there), maybe then you can put action to your words. I look forward to it.
