should either allow bots or actually police bots
half the clans in this game botted the entire wipe and only two times to my knowledge were any of the bots deleted. I'd estimate there are probably between 25-35 ranked bots in this game (lets say 30), so 2/30 isn't very good.
I don't have a problem with bots really, I did not bot this wipe (or allow my clan to bot) just to challenge myself and enjoy pvp with wilds without having to worry about being deleted. However its more work than its worth and I won't be playing hardcore again unless botting is legalized or there is an actual policy put in place and enforced that makes the game as close to fair as possible.
I still think that the best policy I've heard so for recommended was to allow only 1 char per 1 ip and other than that, take a hands off approach. Mud will police itself etc. Its just annoying trying to play by the rules when others are not, and I really feel bad for people who do play by the rules and then get pked by a 10man finnbot army. Although the latter has not happened this wipe, it is definitely possible still.
Oh and yes, botting is more fun than playing by the rules. Sorry if you don't know this, but this is my opinion and it is shared by many others. It just sucks people who try to follow the rules don't get to have as much fun\equipment\ranks\skills\zoning as those who do not.
