    Can I just point this out quickly.

    Running a computer with a 300 watt power supply = 3h per 1kWh (or about 0.3$, in money terms). So consider that you're running these bots 24/7, that's 8*0.3$ per day, or $2.40. Now let's look at that monthly, so take that and multiply by 30, you'll get somewhere in the region of $70 per month.

    If you were to, as you said, make 100k per day, that's about 3kk a month (based on a 30 day month, botting chars all day every day, without getting trapped / killed / lured etc).

    The only way this is actually "profitable" is if you can sell 1kk for 25$~, and that is assuming you don't have a powerful computer (my main computer uses 600 watts, so you can double the cost to $140 per month, and that's under normal use, most pcs with a graphics card will consume 300 watts, and anything with a quad core CPU, graphics card, more than 1 RAM slot in use, and multiple fans & PCI-e devices (sound card, USB cards, network cards) will use more than 300 watts. Add an LCD monitor to that and you've just doubled the cost (a bog standard LCD monitor of 22 inches is about 250 watts, LED monitors can be as low as 40 watts to the best of my knowledge).

    I like the gesture, and for those who live with parents (therefore don't pay their own electric bills) or live in shared accommodation where electricity is a fixed rate, it's fine. Unfortunately for those who already entered the real world, it's an expense.

    My advice to anyone whose thinking about this: Unless you're willing to put time into your botting, and make sure your chars don't get stuck, trapped or killed, is to switch off your PC for a month and go outside, then use the saved money to buy a few kk's.

    Also an FACC EK making 80k/h profit is a ridiculous claim, the best spot for moneymaking is probably a dragon lair, and the most profit there is about 30k/h. Even brimstone bugs (PACC) are only 60k/h profit on a good day. Draken walls can be a lot more, but that's not a botting thing so it doesn't count.

    You cannot fail, so I'm lowering the standard.
