So will continue this discussion under the assumption that your original claim that Iryont places characters in unreachable locations to spoof his online list was just a baseless speculation – and that you agree with that. Moving on to the topic of rune farms etc...
You continue to claim A and backing it up with evidence of B. But let's look at some other examples first:
Note that this claim is only a speculation because the online list is only an indication. It doesn't directly prove your claim.
If you wanted a stronger indication you could cross-examine e.g one month of online list data with additional data from MediviaStats to show how big amount of the rune makers are online for inhuman amount of hours (e.g not many people would sit on one character for 10 hours every day for a month).
If you wanted an even stronger indication you could take your extracted data of probable rune makers and start collecting in-game data of how many of them are botting. If you found that 25% of the bulk of players collected are rune makers with macro-like behavior, you could go on to checking up a sub-section of these players. If you found that 99 of the 100 players you checked up were macro rune makers who auto-logged as soon as you entered their screen, you can safely assume that the next 100 or 1000 players on your list will behave similarly. If only 25 of 100 players were botting; maybe you weren't precise enough in your estimation? Perhaps you didn't limit the players' level when sorting for macro-like behavior?
I'm not saying you have to do all of this. But until you do, you have to realize that your speculations are fairly baseless. You say a big percentage and that's all there is to it really.
QUOTE="robbydeath, post: 2485142, member: 5942"]I'm saying either way it's BS and Iryont knows about it but doesn't want to fix it because he wants to trick people like you and worr into believing theres a lot of players when there isn't.
Like I said, you claim A and backing it up with evidence of it. There is no doubt that there are rune farms but your claims go way past the facts. In our example, the fact that there are rune farms doesn't prove Iryont's intentions -- a dead body doesn't prove there was a murder. If he doesn't want to fix it, how would you explain his staff banning botters?
Legacy: MediviaStats
Spectrum: MediviaStats
Pendulum: MediviaStats
Destiny: MediviaStats
Of course there are still possible explainations to why he would ban botters despite not wanting to ban botters, like "he is doing it in small scale to hide his grand operation." However, you should note that at this point you are entering conspiracy theory territory. You're the Tibia version of taking the fact that "some people benefited from the wars in the Middle-East" and use it to prove that "Bush did 9/11."[/QUOTE]
??? 9/11 not inside job???
