Hi Ender,

I'm currently wondering what your plans are when it comes to attacking your own bot.

In Bots][ we had to let someone log in to our account to make this possible due to IP restrictions. Since it is so easy to get pass, I was wondering what the plans are when it comes to attacking.

Need Kudos in the future ;)

Hi Ivo, I asked the exact same question the other day.

Wiggin's reply was:

"There's nothing done to prevent this at the moment nor do I have any plans to prevent it, but that could change."

Ah nice, now we need to make sure he doesn't change that idea.

It's a tough rule to enforce, so I'm not sure what I'll do. I could restrict based on recent IP(s), but then tech-savvy players will just proxy and I wouldn't want to spend resources trying to track them down.

I think the best plan for this is to just make it less lucrative to attack your own bots. Currently you can give a bot with a decent ratio crab whistlers and awful armor and attack it from any level. With some decent anti-whoring measures in place, the effectiveness of this would at least be limited.
