This does nothing to stop the largest bot farm. The largest bot farm has a holding account with over 45 million Collection Power just ready to be delegated at any time.
Let's stop fooling ourselves here. Vote this down and get an outright ban on bots. All bots do is make it tougher to understand where the team is at from a marketing perspective and it makes the game a mining operation.
There are people who want to keep the bots going out of self-interest hiding behind "decentralization", when this ecosystem is clearly not fully decentralized as-is.
Why tip-toe around the issue?
how many accounts does this farm currently operate? and how many could it operate after the change?
this is about a deletion of the farms that do not have cards and a massive reduction of the botfarm accounts of the farms that have cards. simply showing an account and how many cp the account has is quite misleading and unfortunately does not help here!
They have over 50k accounts, they win trade, and cycle through accounts. With this holding account alone, they could support 2,372 accounts. You might think, "Well that's great we're minimizing harm!" However, that's still a lot of accounts engaged in activities that deteriorate the ecosystem.
Just ban it outright. What are we so afraid of?
The game that's so great that nobody wants to play it.
so you see it's a huge reduction and a huge win for our ecosystem. i think you should know that i would also like to ban all bots. but since this is unfortunately not within reach, it doesn't help us if we continue to let ourselves be robbed just because we are waiting for a dream that will probably never come true
It can absolutely come true. Of course, we know that the modern mechanic to stopping bots is not foolproof. So this proposal could use some alterations, it needs more teeth.
If you want to reduce the harm further and make sure that the mining operations come to a complete halt (just to make sure that there are no workarounds on a ban), why not add an amendment to the proposal or a separate proposal that removes CP from Chaos Legion Rewards cards? We're going beyond soulbound here, we're talking all Chaos Legion Rewards cards. They lose their Collection Power altogether. This creates the system block that is necessary on top of a bot block.
Is the issue about the concern that bot farm operators may find workarounds to still be able to infiltrate?
Or is it just a few people who want to protect their mining operations?
