General script (ab)us(ag)e report/My experience.
Dear Support and Admin team!
I have been on vacation for quite some time. Now as I returned, I'm not happy with what I see.
Before I put my main and NG account on vacation I experienced that I could hunt for 200b naq targets with ease (farm). There were a plenty of them even with 200b+ naq in the open with 0 defenses.
Now as I see the "battlepage" generates less "image based numbers". Also I can hardly find even 100b+ naq targets. (Compared to the time I was active several months ago). I should also note that UU targets (raid targets) are not affected that much as naq targets.
I do not want to give ideas to scripting players how to exploit (bypass) the captcha protection, or the image generation (I can PM those theories/ideas to the corresponding people with some suggestions), but combining those could(might) result in heavy scripting usage.
I might be wrong and by the time I was on vacation, preferred naq targets went/got lower (however AT prices remained the same, or even decreased, and UU prices are definitely decreased.) So yeah, maybe some players stocked up tons of ATs and now they are burning them. That could be true as well as my "scripting-frenzy theory".
I would kindly ask Support/Admins/mods in the name of the community to investigate, and try to filter out scripting players.
I'm also asking the community to express their thoughts on this topic.
Sincerely,
Jander
