I would call them. They are most likely closed on sundays, so you wouldn't be able to get a hold of them today.
Support tickets can take upwards of a week plus.

Thank you, I was looking at their contacts page looking for working hours, and a phone number I could call, but I couldn't find anything, Somehow I was still able to access the forums before they locked me out of there, and I was reading a little bit about their banning procedure. Unless I'm mistaken, they said an actual person comes and looks at you before deciding to ban, and this is highly upsetting.

it would be one thing if some glitch in the system caused be to be auto banned, which I wouldn't have much of a problem with, things happen, but knowing that an actual person came and looked at me, and judged me as a bot just stresses me out.

It was my first time farming sparks for charged loadstones, and I was directing my pet, evading, changing weapons, and just everyday general play. I don't think i was exiting any bot like behaviors afaik, and yet I was still judged as a bot, even if I do get unbanned, I'm worried that this will happen again if I ever decide to farm lodestones or something similar.

Maybe it had something to do with me being a ranger seeing as every time I see pics of bots they are rangers. The reason I'm assuming I was banned sometime while doing sparks at lyssa is because previously I was doing meta events, guild bounties, the daily, and crafting, and I don't see how any of that would get me flagged for a ban as a bot.

When I was casual, I got my exoctic armor through crafting, which required 5 ectos per piece.

Rough learning curve, but I wasn't doing dungeons in the first place, so meh.

The only reason anyone should have a reason to go into low level areas is to map it, or to help friends/guildies with a hard quest. Otherwise you're just going to be sitting there facerolling the mobs and filling up on low level loot. As it is, rares and dyes drop often enough and with easy enough enemies that botters are drawn there to farm exactly those things. I often see bots in the grub cave and bandit nook outside the ranch farming the fast-respawning easily-killed enemies. I myself take my thief (non-botted) and camp that bandit spot for the DE, getting as many people to do the event as possible while I'm killing the constant large waves of bandits from the opening. I get tons of T1 mats, dyes, the occasional rare drop. not max, but high enough for ectos and to put into the forge if I get the right type. Now for a toon with heavier armor and aoe (cough Guardian staff cough) you can just stand there and spam skill 1 for hours and not have any issues.


The point is that low level areas are for low level players. If you make rewards in low level areas better, you run the risk of botters moving in full-time. If you're meaning just for unique drops from the low level champs...that's also a mistake, because even the champs are a walk in the park for a few level 80s. And are those unique items going to be your level, or the area level? If they'll be your level, why should low levels even try?

Though I'd like to see better drops from those queensdale champs...tired of helping out the newbies and getting a rainbow 5-slot bag collection.

Seems like it would be annoying, but not as annoying as being 1 of 5 players in a zone. (in the mid level zones) I started playing back during Christmas and Queensdale was pretty populated, Kessex hills was okay, after that it was off and on. The majority of mid level zones were dead most of the time.

Thank you all, I'll probably try to get into AC or CM when someone in my guild starts a story mode run, but in the mean time, I've been messing around on cursed shore.

I have around 135k karma, should I buy 3 pieces of exotic karma armor, or is there something else I should be saving it for? The karma armor would probably be just until I have the armor I'm aiming to get, since it doesn't have the stats I want, and I can easily buy the other 3 pieces of rare, can also switch up my trinkets to make up for the stats I lost.
