We can't forget about Wolfquestworlds that was what started it all back then @JamesRo

There is no way people would prefer Carbon over Le Bot, Le Bot is and always be first pick of people. Carbon is pretty much Le Bot anyways.
P.S. Carbon is Dead.

Yeah of course it is. Tbh fundamentally, Le Bot and Carbon both originate from Dark Mystic (By Mystical). And some of DM's code would've originated from even further back (but I'm not gonna go there). The game changed quite a bit however, and James worked hard to adjust to all of these changes. When James' releases slowed down, Carbon kind of stepped in (using the DM source, and James' code) and D.V. made some new features he thought were needed.
The point I'm trying to get across is that in my opinion, AQW hacking has basically been one huge open-source project. There were the originals, and certain people have kindly taken up time to improve and build on the code over the years. The only thing that has really changed is the name of the project... but everyone has done some code 'stealing' from previous versions of the project (apart from the original author/s) to create their own.
Sorry I don't know if that was ramble, hope it makes sense. Basically, in reality, there's hardly any difference between Le Bot and Carbon based on their foundation, it's just what the individual coder has chosen to do with that foundation.

Couldn't have said it better myself, Oli.
Oliboli8769 (06-18-2016)
Yeah, Oli summed it up pretty much perfect - none of this would be possible without Mystical and Datapaw, and some other people like Xyo etc.
Actually, I'm kind of surprised that people still use Le Bot to this day - I always thought that as soon as I vanished, someone would take the botting game to a whole new level. Guess I was wrong...
Oliboli8769 (06-18-2016)
Glad I had the right idea, that's just how I've always seen it, and I don't think there's anything wrong with it
It's all about the nostalgia I suppose. I've always believed that too (that someone always pops up when somebody else isn't as active), and I'm sure it'll happen soon enough. After the server re-work, we will see

Lebot. James really did a fine job updating it and always acted upon feedback. Data Wolf was the best bot though. Whatever happened to that?

Let's keep this interesting discussion thread alive, guys!
Unless you don't release under your primary name/alias :P

hehe hence why my personal trainer isn't released at all yet. Waiting to see what new fun can be done on the new engine But in all seriousness I think the issue is, is that LeBot does it all. besides maybe a few bugs that need to be sorted out it does everything for you. Besides auto-bank and auto-merge glitching. (Patched in new engine most likely). So, there is honestly no reason to expand on what has already been done
