Talk:Bot

Rewrite
I think this page needs to be re-written. In its current form, it appears to tout the great things bots can do for you (even though it say "Do not use bots").

I do not think there is any reason to describe all of the specific types of bots or describe them in any detail. It should be sufficient to define what a bot is and state very clearly what CIP's official stance on the topic is. Any more information than that appears to promote their use.

Unlike Scams, knowing more about a bot does not allow you to counteract their effects or to protect yourself from other players' use of them.
