Re: Stars catches a bot and it\'s........my mom

A bot user might decide to test-run their bot on somebody else's account to shake out bugs, see if it gets caught, etc. All they need, I think, is your username and password, which you could get in a variety of ways (keylogger, phishing, etc.).

A bot user could test out a bot on a dummy account by setting up a fake name/etc. pretty easily. If someone obtained another person's account information, there are a lot better things they could do with it (wipe out all the cash on the account, use the account to make deposits and then chip dump, etc.) than use it to test a bot. Plus, it makes them more likely to have their bot caught and its playing style flagged. This scenario does not make sense either.
