I was making a generalized statement about my experiences with bots in all the other games I have played.
Also, tracking everything every player is doing everywhere at any given time is impossible.
Tracking the results of what they do is not.
Example:
"The average miner is online for 6 hours and mines 1600 nodes for a downtime of 20%, you account was on for 18 hours and mined 5900 nodes, the maximum amount of nodes possible in a 6 hour time frame is ~2000 with no interruptions what so ever. Maximum possible nodes you could have mined in 18 hours is ~6000. This means in 18 hours you only had a 1.6% downtime."
Metrics man, they are not even hard to generate either and most databases can have statistical tracking for a character added with very little effort.
i guess i should of used a /sarcasm
