Thank you very much! I'm hoping the new rules they are implementing will help, but this will stop bots from accessing the website entirely. I hope that the tools listed here are being used, or if not they are implemented as this will help dramatically.
I also like the changing of html element names, classes etc. as this will require the bots to be reprogrammed often incurring a cost to the bot developers, plus a lot of downtime for the bots annoying their customer base.... Plus on top of this they could track the accounts which are instantly stopping playing once the classes and names are changed, thus finding names of bot accounts allowing bans to happen.
We definitely can stop the bots and I think once they are stopped that the game will grow organically again, it's just a case of implementing multiple catches for the bots and paying for one of the many bot protection services... the 2 listed here are amongst the best.
