Journey from Botang to Lagan over the Inspectionroad

Welcome to our journey Botang to Lagan over the Inspectionroad!
Get into the timemachine and set as destination China and as year 99 a.d.
Now we start your time travel to the silkroad. But wait, we have chosen the wrong reality.
Please wait, while your guide is correcting this mistake. So, now we can start our travel.
The system is creating a connection to the loginserver. Please wait, this can take some time.
Look! There is a nice image with random letters. Let's send the confirmation back.
Hmm. We crashed into a servertraffic. Sorry. Now we have to reconnect.
And then: The nice image again. Insert the code and wait.
Now the transmission starts. Soon we are numbers in the database. Next step, choosing a character and a characterclass. The guide suggested to take the Europe part, because it's faster.
Ok. Now we have to set the appearance of our character. Done! Look at this. That's you!
As weapon you have chosen the One-Hand-Sword and as armor a light armor.
But wait, we are not in Botang, we are in the wrong part of the road.
Please wait, the explanation will follow soon.
At first, it's fun, killing monsters, lots of monsters. Then, level up. Now you are level two!
While you fight, there was a strange feeling. It was like an interferance between your brain and your body. Really strange. But then, everything went black.
When you get up, you are at home.
What happen?
This is just a disconnect. Don't worry. Disconnects are your best friends.
Now, the guide left and we try again to get on the silkroad.
And, welcome back, the nice message said.
While you are leveling, I'll have a watch other players.
Hmm, some of them are strange. Like Robots. Do you share this feeling with me?
If not, you can leave now!
And then, there is an Disconnect.
And again, you try to reconnect, but it was impossible. A Inspection happen.
And this was the beginning of your horrortrip on the Inspectionroad.
And now, the powers of evil get stronger than ever.
And you won't believe this truth.
You are on the silkroad again, and then, suddenly everything was black and there was a silence.
This was only the beginning of a interesting journey on the inspectionsroad.
I'll tell you more about this, when the inspection ends.
So, keep on waiting

SOS found, again

Hello!
And again, there was an SOS in the inventory.
So, this is a strange thing. More than 2 SOS in a time < 1 week on the europe side of the silkroad.

Botting is boring

you just have to look on the screen and reconnect.
But playing sro is not better. you also ruin your mouse, while having boredom
at least, the bot is faster

SOS found

I was really happy as i saw the sos in my inventory. You can see now that the bot is a good thing.

Honeypot Silkroad

A long time ago on the Silkroad, far far away.
There was a fight agains the botusers.
The good side in this war is, or even should be, the joymaxteam.
But, they had strong enemies. They had to fight a few hard fights.
In regular periods, they have banned all the bots. Every time, but then
there was a problem. A long period of time, they don't ban botusers, in
this timeperiod they have make some nice events, which are really invite
to start a bot. I can't think, that they have given up this fight. This way is too easy.
So, I think, this is a trap. They wan't to monitor the gamers, and detect the way,
bots are using. And then, there will be a massive bantime. For a lot of botter, this
will be the apocalypse. And then there will be a clean silkroad. But just for a short
time, because the spirit of botting will never die on silkroad.
But, when they have given up the fight, I hope, they don't use this sentence as their
new rule for botters:
"Suum cuique per me uti atque frui licet."

The bot is very good

The bot runs and runs now. In a short time the bot lvls the cha from 10 to 20 and in the inventar the bot have a lot of money and items. At lvl 20 he have about 150k gold and equipment. I hope that the bot are not in the botters list and that he lvls me so fast to lvl 80.

20070830

Situation normal

Hello again!
Now I've found a bot, and it works.
Leveling is really fast, in a very short time, you can get up to level 5.
After a hour the char was level 10 with much money and a lot of items

Problem 2: Use the bot

Hi!
Now I have found a good bot (name removed). And then the next attack of problems. Install it, Start it and work with the bot.
Ok, Installation was quite easy (just copy files and excecute them) . But run the bot was a big problem. How to configure the bot that it can level properly, how to hide the bot from nasty players and don't run against a GM :D.
After 2 hours of research, the bot run. Yeah!


But then
DEATH

Reconfigure!
Rerun!

Death!


And so on...


....



But then!


It works.!
Ok, just for a short time.


But, I will keep trying

Problem 1: Find a SRO Bot, not a virus

After planing and registering at SRO, I start the experiment. And there cames the first problem: Find a bot, not a virus. But first things first.
I tried the googlemethod to find a bot. I got results, a lot of results. But your antivirus made a message firework. So I can say, viruses and their friends are the punishment for botting.* So I switched to a full linux machine (no vmware, and similar programes). It was a war against foregin languages, registrations, anonymity, and trojans, and other nice programs.
I have downloaded 200 MB of files. After the viruschecks (clamav,virustotal.com and lokal scanner) whe had only 25 MB. But I had botnames, i can use for an ohter search.
At the end, I removed all files, and used the botnames for querying google. Now I try to get some "good" bots. The next step is testing the bots and inform about detectability.
To manage this point (finding a bot), I need about 12 hours on a sunny day


* If you want to ruin your system, try this... ;)
