WAY more skills.
Maybe it works like a skill bonus on weapons until QR is "maxed"?

more skill messages or _TRUE_ skill gain ?
I scan my skills quite often and can not confirm, that a lot of skill messages on a low QR BP gives more skill gain only more messages (tried a low QR filters some time ago).
Highest skill gains were with SiB BPs.

More "green lines" as I stated above, i.e. more skill messages. I don't track crafting skills since I'm a hunter and craft only occassionally in hope of big hit , I just found it interesting how significantly big the difference in the skill messages amount with a high and a low QR. Maybe it's just for me .

Since I did not want to create a new thread....

Looks like Bot action in that area is still ongoing.

I tried to communicate with both of them with no responses, and they were constantly running northwards from the revival for the 2 hours I was hunting there.

MA has been informed and am awaiting a response from them.

Personally I think that EU, as a Science Fiction world should have: automatically working crafting machines (no matter if they just keep clicking or you click once to craft all your resources), automatically working resource excavators (every claim working like small drill tower and excavator as a controller of it - you have to use excavator to get your resource, but once only), automatically working healing systems, with adjustable settings (heal me when I'm on 75% of my health, 50% of my health and so on. You could equip weapon anyway and just keep shooting while being healed), weapons with single and burst modes (you use single for tagging the mob and then switch to burst when mob is close). If it's going to be a long term project, as MA claims it to be, something has to be done to protect players from injuries. I understand that storyline of this world presumes, that machines are evil and rebelious, but Robot Wars happened years ago, mutinous computers were destroyed, it's time to introduce new devices that are created to help humans in their life. Such devices should however check from time to time, if there is a human being by the keyboard to prevent ppl from autoskilling (like randomly required typing code displayed on the screen for crafter/miners, maybe necessity of changing the body part you aim at when hunting). And until such solutions are introduced in game, all avatars cought on using bots/macros/autoclicker should be locked/banned without any exceptions. I'm not a crafter myself (yet), I'm mostly hunter/miner myself, but I happened to sit by my keyboard and click 1k times crafting something or excavating big lyst/oil and such, so I know it can be annoying. But I see no reason why I can be annoyed by this when someone can just use autoclicker without being annoyed.
I used to do similar thing, as bots in this thread, when I was bored/without ped/waiting for auctions to end up. But I did them manually. It's not that bad activity to kill time, much better then sweating for me, as I can talk with people at the same time, take part in soc channel discussions and send congratulations to ppl on my FL for their globals/hofs. I've met several bots, doing the same and in the same place as I did. They never reacted on anything I said or I did, just kept running/dying procedure. One time during hunting expedition I cleared with my sco mate a path to pvp4 for one of such bots, unfortunately he had no antitoxic shot on him, shame, would be fun
Skills gained with such activities are rather small if you spend 30 minutes or even hour doing that. But if someone could stay there for hours or days, it could be possible to make some peds on selling skills gained this way. There is no decay, which is good, but I used to do merge this with skilling my medical skills (here comes decay). And I did it only when I was sure I'm not ruining someone's else's experience. Bots do not care where they run, if there are people mining or hunting there, if the mobs are being trained to other players and so on. And they do harm to other players, either by aggroing mobs or getting easy skills when others have to work hard on theirs. So once again: ALL BOTZ MUST DIE. For this universe being fair and honest.

good job to stop this !

I did saw that guy last night, while hunting Argos, going NW, dying and reviving over and over and,... tried twice to clear a path for him, but the Argos managed to get him in the end!

Psst, Svarog, do you still have that pet of yours? lol

Did that not only with filters!
Also with dampers, auxx sockets and several other BPs I am at QR100 now.

All without the use of ACer, oh and my hand is still ok.

Made a 60 PED hunt using the TT pistol (= 6k shots) together with one of my disciples, and damn that hurts a lot more than clicking the crafting mashine!

I think the autoclickers of today have a bad deal. In the old days, nobody was complaining about the diripi autoclick fap skilling, or the acid pit autoclick fap skillers, or the trapped drone01 autoclick scanners. But nowadays everybody seems to be on a witchhunt.
I think all the "older" players should look back and ask themselves:

did I never trap a corn under the legs of a tank at phoenix with the purpose of sweating it completely dry?

did I never replicate an item when that was possible?
did I never hunt with the axe 1x0 while it was bugged and not reported it to mindark?
did I never use my ghost to walk to the next city, running past mobs that would otherwise have killed me?
did I never stack a few pecs together so they weren't collectable, creating extra lag on the server?
wasn't that me with the whip at phoenix skilling on corns that couldn't reach me because they were semi-trapped
wasn't that me on the wing of that spacecraft?
did I never kill a spider north of orthos with an amped opalo?
was i never part of a team with settings on leader takes all in a pvp area while the leader was not actually in pvp?
etc etc etc

If your sheet is totally clean.. continue posting
If it's not.. don't make me get my collection of screenshots of you all doing just that!
