Yesterday ( 1-22-13 ) i was out lvling in Fairyland and was shocked to see NCJuji show up where i was lvling. I am sure he was out LF Botters, which was a "Breath of Fresh Air"...i can only hope this means NC is now gonna get "proactive" in the hunt for botters...and Umm Juji....those some really nice duals ya got there ( can i have em plz ) :D
He could not do anything about bots even if he was looking because therevis no in game GM command for banning somebody. As Peri said he was probably testing sonething on the live server to check something in the Q & A server.
Remember Juji has limited levels of GM access as does Sace. They are forum admins not GM to the game. They can do limited things. Banning and investigating bots is not one of them. They are responsible for other things. When you see them log in and buff in towns or communicate with players that's more of what they do. Bot control isn't one of them.
Dont they have a test server for that?
I suspect the test server has a "clean" environment, without the messed-up codes they put on the live servers (which also cause bugs to appear).
It's safer to assume that tests made on the live servers reflect what you'll get on those same live servers.

Remember GMSpam who actually hunted bots? And even trashtalked in announcement about bans.. :D

Correct, but he did not do it from within the game, he used what all high ranking GM's use and that us an external adminstration program.
As for making announcements he was using the same program, same as GM's use now which is why you will never see a high ranking GM in the game because they do not have to log in.
So as I stated already no GM can ban from within the game hecause no such command exists. This information I got from the Korean game masters themselves.

Well, who cares what program GM uses to ban someone. GM who runs around and see bot, he can use that admin program to do that ban.. Like Spam. He also PKed some ppl :D
Most likely this wasn't case when Juji was running around tho.

I'm not a GM, which is actually more of a customer support role. I do have access to all GM abilities though. As for the reason why the OP saw me, I was investigating the lag on the servers. We are definitely becoming more proactive against bots and RMT. You may not see it on your end as much, but things are getting better.

We still love you :) You just keep on doing what you do.

Let's hope so, the list of 128 spammers blocked fills up very quickly

Sorry to break your false beliefs, but there is more than one ingame command to ban a player on L2OFF.That even includes IP range bans.

You are wrong, but if you want to believe you are right then be my guest.

I see you're more knowledgeable than Korean GMs.
Well...the files that left russian PTS seems to be "offlike". So if there is a command...why not here? Ofc there is a possibility that we are the ones who are playing l2-demo :]

I have a command list up to Livindor from one of the Korean GM's and there are no ban command present. Whatever files the illegal server (s) are using are no doubt midified by whoever has them, like all junk private servers.

Juji, go sometimes on Bloody Swampland (near Altar area).
Few days ago i saw a party of bots for sure.
I will try to report that situations or submit ticket, but sometimes You can take a visit in Swampland :)

+1 on that
But I would guess there is a command to kick someone :D
I think some of us need to realize that this game is never going to be like it used to be. There isn't the customer support like in that past. There probably never will be. A nine year old game doesn't spend money on hiring employees.
