Holy shit,I'm gonna lose so much sleep because of this...
Personally I've never really seen the point of botting; I thought part of the fn of these MMOs was that you earned the leveling up.
I've always imagined my last few days on earth as being in a nursing home playing Runescape Classic (2001-2003 runescape) with just me and a bunch of bots, recreating the glory days.
was working on an openclaw bots only game called arenaclaw this weekend, runescape auto battler fighting game spin-off.

I mean, I guess you won't, because the bot can play the game for you while you sleep. Personally I've never really seen the point of botting; I thought part of the fn of these MMOs was that you earned the leveling up.

Open RuneScape Classic[0] literally has a live server with hundreds of bots for you to do that.. today! [0] https://rsc.vet
I used to play on the regular world (RSC Preservation, non-bot). There's not enough people. And probably won't be hardly anyone there when I'm old enough to be in a nursing home. I could join the bot worlds, but I'm fairly certain that they don't talk much or behave like a normal player in general (stumble through quests, make friends, trade with other random players, etc.). They probably just grind skills in some op…
I think optimally, you'd do something more akin to a "group ironman" with some friends. This guarantees you've got others around.

for me it was autoHotKey, amazing programming language with a built in recorder!
Great scripting language, but has a pretty troubled past. Once the original creator moved on from ownership, the new owner also had a business with Runescape botting. The story is that it didn't go well for the maintainers of Autohotkey until another person took the reigns.
The direction RSBot took under his leadership was less than ideal. I lamented the loss of RSBot 2 and local scripts. The subsequent versions, dependent on the SDN, were never as good.

A lot of tedium is added into these games to force the player into spending real money for skips & access to content. It is a valid way to incentivize customers into paying for given service, but also means there are many time wasting repetitive tasks that can ruin the experience if one does not grasp the concept of "when the game starts getting tedions, you are supposed to pay"
