Dear Snailbrain & devs,

I know you are working hard to improve the experience, but I disagree on the bot issue.

Even though humans can currently overwhelm the bots, you should definitely fight them in the long run. It's completely insane that you can run a computer with bots and get your 'free' huntercoin, when a human player has to think, play and invest their time to play the game. It is very important that you run a healthy and sustainable ecosystem.

You can see it in other fields like gaming or poker, too. The big ones remaining are the companies which fight bots. There are always people who try to find the loop hole and build bots, but your goal should be to get rid of the non human players. It can't be too hard to implement a code verification or something like that.

Please think about it. I am sure, players will appreciate it as well and that the coin will benefit in the long run due to this decision.

Sincerely

Scrooge D

huntercoin source code is opensource, every operation are clearly visible (stored on block), no way to limit that
if they code a captcha into qt wallet, the only ones hit by that will be human players, because bot programmers for sure will remove that check in code... (and i'd like to see then how many post about "remove that $/$$£%" captcha!")

the best thing is to be able to command a squad, programming behaviours, and exposing those functionalities into the client (that's what i'd like to do in the future with my client)

What's the eta on your release? Days? Weeks?
