Perhaps it is a sign that the " Are you there" Messages to stop botting are really not working at all, and it isn't even stopping actual botters, It isn't hard to get a Aimbot or something as the sort to tap on the "Are you there " message. Or hard to get your bot to probably tap all over the screen where the "Are you there" Message can occur. And probably the only reason botting has even became a issue to begin with, Is because of things like absolutely nerfing how much loot someone can get got ridiculously low to only 200, Also nerf the prices of loot, Crippled farmers by removing explosive arrows. And limiting how much bugs someone can get and probably nerf the price of bugs as well. Making every form of gralat income players had before less efficient than ever had been.
How would you not expect someone to go so far as using bots and macros to do their work instead at that point? Of course people are going to try To do something else instead of farming and looking at a screen for hours on end and hitting a sword. That's why people probably end up watching movies or do something else as they farm. Not sure why he needed multiple accounts to farm, but regardless someone should be able to farm while watching a movie at their leisure without having to worry about something like getting banned because of a faulty bot detection system because they wanted to so something else

Well first off, it's working fine at detecting botters. The fact that he got wrapped up and detected as a botter just means he didn't pay attention, I don't understand how you think it's proof the system isn't working. You don't get automatically banned by any systems so that means a staff member personally checked to see if he was botting and there was no response. Our automatic systems attempt to deter incidents, we don't rely on them for banning.
Second.
Doesn't matter if you don't like how gralats are earned. Don't like it? Don't play the game then instead of trying to justify breaking the rules. And no, botting has become a big issue because the game is no longer mostly iOS players. When 90% of the server was iOS players it was a lot harder to do things like macro/botting because not everyone jailbroke their phone. Now only 10% of players are using iOS... and it's very easy to use third-party tools on Android and even easier on computers(Flash users). Thus, botting/macroing has really become much more accessible and rampant.
Sorry if you don't like it but practically all of the game is free to play. I suppose the easiest way to actually keep things running is to make it all pay2win, but we try to avoid that yeah? It's really surprising just how many players on the forums act so passionate about the game and its changes, and are so quick to voice their criticisms while adamantly being against actually supporting the game and trying to find every way to undercut it.

Can implement an annoying prompt message at your house, can’t do anything about cheaters or hackers everywhere else. Congrats man.

How surprising, detecting if someone is actually paying attention or just using a program to mash the same buttons over and over is
a lot easier to detect than players using the various multiple methods of modifying the game memory to hack many different things. And like I said, we don't use systems to ban. There
are systems that are in place to detect hackers as well, and they do detect them and notify staff. Though, I guess we can just put up a pop up message that asks if they're hacking. Problem solved, right?
