higher EPH during online time.
i think that bots that are online over the hour point for EPH should recieve higher EPH that bots that are offline.
this would promote activity for clan competition and would also stop bots simply idling and gaining loads

Might encourage auto-refresh scripts. In any case, one extra link to click while dumping energy.

All he said was higher EPH during online time, doubt he meant multiplying it by one hundred thousand percent..

Although 100 thousand percent would be interesting....

even just an extra 50-100 EPH for online players would make dumper clans abit less prominent in the leaderboard

neps pointed out the inevitable flaw with this:

Might encourage auto-refresh scripts.

It certainly would.

You have weeded out auto clickers though. I remember one where people noticed that he was never idle and it was brought to your attention

At the moment, I don't believe that auto-refreshers provide any in-game benefits to players. The only thing it would affect is total amount of online time. If you change the EPH calculation to include a factor of online time during the month. Then online time suddenly becomes important to players competing for monthly energy and if players use auto-refreshers, then it just requires the administrator to punish them based on #2.

I think the major factor would be whether Ender would be available to monitor for cheaters.

I mean what kind of benefit are we talking here?

Because, if auto-refresh is that beneficial to make your EPH skyrocket, or if it out plays actual scoring, then why does it matter?

Here's how you stop that. Simple and easy.

  • Make it so that you EPH online time can only go up > IF you are at the fight page with a fight going on. You can't refresh the fight page without some scraping and such.

This is a great idea, just make it where it only raises IF you are actually fighting, not refreshing the online page.
