[Threshold]

I don't know what kind of games you play, but I have played PvE games that are far more competitive than many PvP games. If you do not think there is "real competition" on non-PvP focussed games then you haven't played many.

This is often one of the justifications for botting, but it rings pretty hollow to me. It always sounded like an excuse for bad behavior from someone who knows deep down it is bad. I'm not saying that's how you are using it, I'm just saying I've heard that argument many times before and it always left me with that feeling.

Keep in mind that botting rarely has anything to do with how fun a game is. No matter how awesome and fun a game is to play, some people will still look to get an advantage by running a bot while they are afk, sleeping, etc. In fact, if the game wasn't fun, there would be absolutely no point in bothering to run a bot on it in the first place (unless its WoW and you are selling the gold to make money).
