If someone needs the quest on an alt, and happens to be camping something off in the middle of nowhere, they won't usually be on LFT to find, and won't see Borealis OOC - even if in Bor, unless they are neutral, they will only see OOC for their faction. The same goes for offering loot rights (VTS or other city loot) in zones other than the last one you were in. The net bots serve in a critical capacity what with AOs lower population. Now, we may agree on the selling of loot rights and other points, but the removal of the nets is not a viable option in my opinion.
    Things worked fine long before there even was an LFT function or any of these bots, people have just become so lazy and dependant on these bots that the regular channels 'no longer work'

    You sound like the people who rave about how bad computers are and how slide rules "worked" just fine. Fact is, those bots provide a service that was not available before, and it is a godsend for all the reasons jorricane mentioned, none of which the "regular channels" ever could do. Those bots are another example of the players stepping up and providing services which have been asked for for years, with no comment by FC. What you think about lootrights is beside the point.

    It worked fine with a large population and when content was located all on RK. Since SL spread activity around and the population has decreased, the bots are now needed.

    Newer MMOs contain built in zone independent instance and encounter queuing systems for the simple reason that you NEED to encourage grouping and communication across zone borders. The bots do this without taking valuable dev time.

    The bots are a part of AO changing with the times and remaining viable. Get used to it, or if you refuse to use them, don't condemn others for living in the present.

    I was thinking the same thing, shopping would be appropriate, if only situationally (is that a word yet?). I'm still experimenting.

    Oh Anna <3 if this were a democracy, and it isn't, but if it was, you would be severely downvoted considering the more than adequate context (historically) in which one channel of a dictator sort is being cast in the mind of a majority of users, as.

    hope that made sense, maybe I'm not as sane as I think you am, is, are, be? I need an update.

    In this case, its also because we have an extensively documented history of accusations of Nazi-ism and bots going together, which have led into a significant amount of both forum-related and in-game harassment. Its been tamped down for a few years, but I prefer not to have to put out those fires all over again. So while in some cases I would leave it alone, I'm also not really in the mood to let people throw matches into the dry grass, k?
