Is it safer to bot at Shilo Village or at the Fishing Guild?
Also if botting at Shilo, would it be ideal to fish in a crowded Shilo world or empty?
Thanks,
 
Generally speaking, botting Fishing in a more crowded world is desirable. More people means you won't be singled out. However, it also might attract wannabe-PMods who just mass-report the entire stack of fishers. I avoid worlds like W160 when I bot because of that reason.

Also, along those lines, I think Fishing Guild is a little safer. Many legit players prefer Fishing Guild because there is more conversation and a larger variety of fish. However, I see few bans for fishing in general (especially with a premium bot).

Thanks for the advice.
Have you ever been to world 22 Shilo Village?
I'm going to be using Perfect Fishing :D
 
I usually just put my bots on whatever world they end up being on. W22 is probably a safe bet: it's not a QuickChat (aka bot) world, but it is relatively popular. It's also important not to bot on the same world for more than a day or so. Returning legit players might notice you and report you for botting.

Perfect Fisher is probably the best way to go for a fishing bot, too. I'd say you're safe. If you want the arbitratily safest method, you should switch between the two places.


EDIT: I just thought of a significant impact that world select has on ban-rate. Choose a world with low ping (below 75 ms is acceptable; below 50 ms is good). Many random events and anti-bans don't work at high pings (more than 100-150 ms). Poor random event completion and poor anti-ban is more dangerous than a dozen player reports.
 
Shilo vilage is safier, cause there's less people. Fishing guild is crowded these days

Fishing guild provides safety in numbers though.

In the end I'd go shilo as well though. You can easily pretend you're afking and it's better xp anyway.
