RE: Splinterlands Fraudulently Issued Server Assets To Oblige Botters

in #bots3 years ago

Like others mentioned the ghost nfts only exists inside the accounts. Can’t be traded or sold. That clearly doesn’t make them valuable. New players have to get a start from somewhere so a starter set helps. If your so concern about duplicating cards then propose to aggroed separate ghost cards for starter set?

Regarding the bots I am not in favor of milking the rewards especially by bots. But this is apart of the dencentralized world. SL is not perfect but does a good job combating the bots. Dec energy bar % drop and lower rewards in lowest ranks reduces the bots from milking the rewards. SL will only get better from here and let’s be constructive by finding ways to better combat bots than to ban them. This will only strengthen the value of all SL assets. Right?

At the end of the day all assets will likely end up being zero but the friendships we forge and the bonds we create are priceless memories. It’s just fun watching assets we hold rise in price and won’t it be fun to have it as a way to earn a living rather than working a 9-5 job?

I appreciate how you wrote what you did.

I feel there are other problems with the game too, I could write a lot of posts and it would sound like I'm trying to bring the game down.

There are gov tokens, but no platform for players to DISCUSS these issues. There should have been a forum for debate LONG ago. Discord doesn't work well.

I don't like the presedents they are setting and brainwashing the new blockchain gamers with. You don't like bots, I don't like them. SL loves them.

I honestly feel if they could get 1m accounts next month and all botters, they would LOVE that. There's a lot to talk about the 'future' of this game.

I am honestly telling you, that after the CL comes, I believe that will be the end of SL. I don't think it will survive though all of CL. It will do 'okay' for the time, for some months.

When it crashes, you'll know it. Everyone will be trashing the game, pointing out the bots and such. They won't survive it. Whales will not DUMP their cards, so values won't tank, they will just do nothing but go down. This is some months after the expansion set comes out.

BOTTING is a big issue. SL bet the farm that 'players and bots can coexist in a pvp game'. They're mistaken, it will just take some time to see.

Your sentiment is warranted and I have seen it before. In fact a big whale complained right after untamed came out with similar dislike in the game. He was literally ranked 1st in card ownership and sold out his stake. The card market at the time was devastated by his flooding of max level cards. Time passed and here we are SL thriving better than before.

I know nothing lasts forever but as each expansion is introduced some how SL pulls out ahead better the the previous set. I don’t know what will happen when CL comes out but I’ll be sticking around since it’s my favorite game. If it crashes I am a buyer. If it does not I hold enough cards to reap in some gains.

I played some of the other so call popular games axis and alien worlds but I don’t like them the way I do with SL. The game is complex yet battles results happen pretty quick.

I'd be that guy quit out of PRINCIPLE and did what he did to make a statement. He saw that SL was corrupting the values of blockchain gaming and OWNERSHIP. He bought those cards thinking they would long term assets that were immutable and would not be diluted. The game is destorying the values of blockchain game, injuring ALL blockchain games by doing this.

They are doing things that will HURT the mainstream adoption of blockchain games by SPOILING it. And they are getting away with it! To accept what they are doing is a DESTRUCTIVE precedent. They are STEALING value from these cards by giving MORE THAN THE PROMISED to be used in game!

It doesn't matter that these are SERVER phonies, they do the exact same thing as the real thing. NFT items are going to be viewed as JOKE by the mainstream if gaming companies get away with doing this! The whole principle of this game is spoiled.
