I'm paraphrasing but that's basically what he said.
Here are some direct quotes though:
The thing is, before the higher volume of hunting script usage, the majority of people weren't able to optimize their wealth. Now there are scripts to make sure you do everything you can in a hunting area with ease. More people participate in this because it's easier.Weren't you the one that actually brought the "allow spell botting to keep happening" discussion to the forums? You can't have it both ways. You don't think being spelled up for the entirety of your hunting is a contribution to aiding with automating hunting?
Imagine how out of touch you have to be to blame the crashing market on a mechanic and not incompetence of the company.
He partly blamed "third party add ons" for the lag issues as well. Some such about how much faster scripts can load commands/stack future commands, thus making the hamster wheel catch on fire immediately.
But its totally cool to pay extra and be "allowed" to stack game commands via type ahead.
Makes you wonder how the game ever survived when the active player count was in the thousands. /s
You had better pay your guild dues before you forget. You are 113 months behind.

I feel like when you suddenly have a whole bunch of new critters spawn instantly with glowing/pulsating/etc. bonuses and just keep throwing that in our faces, why wouldn't we want something to help facilitate our hunting prowess? It doesn't just have to be what I just mentioned. You can cast helpful spells on other people -- why is this so wrong; and, at this point, convoluted beyond comprehension? This isn't even aimed at any particular higher-up. I don't know.

Being self sufficient, however, does not include having to suck down that shit sandwich that is walking in on something that sets off a nuke. I don't look forward to any type of spell change revolving around buff spells. They'll figure out a way to make shit awful.
