I botted semi professional in wow. They took down the bot with lawfare nowadays there would be no central entity to go after.

If a serious black and grey market develops on the pocketnet I'm game. Sold already ad clicks there and local upvote services for native currency. Extremely hard to litigate against without central legal entity if the corporate fags want to shut it down.

....my runescape account is like one of the first 300 to 1000 made.
I was around for every rare drop.
Because I never could have fathomed them being worth anything I gave away all of them, since my parents would lock me out of the computer room for playing that game.
I had literally hundreds of party hats, crackers, masks, discs of returning, pumpkins, santa hats, etc.
I also missed out on the original scythe and bunny ears because the like 3 or 5 servers they had were maxed out and I couldn't log in.
My account is maxed but i am perm muted.
My only revenge is making fire swastikas on the map or dropping ashes in the shape of swastikas.
But i did leave my mark on the game...
Because i am the reason you cannot light fires in certain areas of the map.
For example you can no longer light fires in player owned farm pens.
I would go in the pen light my fire and surround it by planting flowers so nobody could ruin it. And since you can't see who is in the animal pens they couldnt report me.
I kept changing my name to holocaust references so many times, they now have blocked me from changing my name, and assugned me the name Art Mink, which i googled to find out was a founder of the communist party in the USA.
This is my story.

social media completely on the blockchain without corporate entity with native currency all in Beta some dedicated anons and we would have a vibrant black and gray market with all early adopters getting filthy rich at least in my estimation
>>15162675
I had everything but the delivery automated. 10 -20 accounts running parallel. Wow gold sells like hotcakes at high rates don't have figues but some hundred euros per day back in the day were possible.

If I had a decent wow classic bot I would probably start again to sell for crypto on pocketnet.app. Double dipping into native crypto shilling and the bot business.

The now coming wow classic server would be a golden opportunity for gold selling if you could get a decent bot. Auto Login, randomized name on start, multi window and custom profiles.

They won't ban cursed energy bots, and someone made a program that automatically detects skulled players and makes your bot log out and hop worlds.
But you need something like 50 bots to farm cursed energy because RS3 GP is cheap as hell, like 20 cents per 1 mil.
You're also going to need to modify the program so the bots log out instantly and scouter bots communicating to the other bots if someone is camping at banks.

for those of you who dont know about oldschool runescape let me give you the conversions

1mil osrs gp = .70 - .80 USD
1mil sounds like alot, but trust me once you invest enough time into the game id say earning .75 USD is about how easy it is to earn 1mil. you can easily earn multiple billions, even hundreds of billions from single item drops just from playing the content. you can do the math from there

the thing is, it is in fact mostly a pre teen / young adults game, and most of them dont have the attention span to reach the end content and end game levels of the game, but they do have access to mommies credit card and their allowance, and its a prime way for them to spend that up

its a legitimate side hustle if you make less than 100k a year. its a hell of a time investment though, but its counteracted by the fact you are meant to play the game in one window while browsing the internet in another.
