Bot detection methods?

[gearheadalex]

Hey there!

I've used buddy bots a lot and I certainly trust them far more than any other bot, both from a functionality and "anti-banning technology" standpoint.

1. Does anyone know what Carbine does to detect botting?
2. Does WildBuddy have any kind of Tripwire-like system in place (if needed)?

Thanks for your time!

Unfortunately, from my understanding, Carbine is too smart to reveal their detection methods. I'd assume that it's just logging people's hours, and monitoring reports.

Since WildBuddy is being remade, and is still in Beta, I'd assume that only basic functions are being worked on. The best trip-wire that I could think of would be a timer plugin that automatically logs you out, then back in after a set period of time.
Revealing WildBuddy's detection methods would also be unwise. If it were to leak, it'd be easy for Carbine to find a way to detect.

Other than that, botting is, obviously, never safe. It's up to the user to set their own precautions. I, myself, only use the bots for Combat.

Makes sense. That's essentially what I was thinking would be the case.
