I'm 110% against allowing botting and I don't even think it bring more players. Most people when they hear that botting is allowed they just quit. Who wants to play a pvp server where everyone uses dash so its impossible to run away from anyone. It doesn't help to stairhop either because the bots target lock. Bots even shoot magicwalls and trap for you. I'm almost sure not even a botter himself doesn't like that everyone else uses bot. When we allow botting there is absolutely no way getting away from your enemies thus pretty boring to play.
The player count has got lower since I stopped banishing botters yesterday, we only have 2 players online right now and its in the evening when its usally most people online thats a way less then yesterday. A whole lot of people with private accounts who play the server regulary quit when they heard botting is allowed, many old players refuse to come back because of this and none of my friends want to play a server full with botters either.
Pvping with a bot is not fun at all in my opinion, I enjoy playing tibia only if I do every move myself. I do think that even many botters dislike it being legal, the bot used to give you an advantage over others but you risked a ban. Now it only makes you equal and you get pissed because how easy you die.
It doesn't matter how I try to watch it I can only see this has made things worse. This used to be about skill, now its just who has the best bot and scripts.
I will still be there as a gm enforcing the rules we still have but I can't recommend playing it anymore.
These are just my opinions
