I have done a horrendous amount of digging and the fact is that it's nearly impossible to automatically detect a bot however, most bots have patterns of behaviour and 'suspiciously fake' profiles that make it pretty easy for humans to detect them visually;  but this requires constant attending and monitoring of the exploders, recording the enter and payout logs, and basically talking to the bots to see if you get no anwer or the same answer (talking bots) to detect them.

I have filed 100's of complaints about the B*nocl* E****r  clan which once had about 30 bots entered into a $7L exploder (a person would not even bother with a 7L exploder unless they were the only entrant) and SL does nothing.

I have the same problem. It was working fine yesterday, but now it's not showing on the xploders's list...
Pot tracking is set to Yes. Tried to re-rez it, to restart it.... but it still doesn't work :-/

tonight got an alert for a lindenxploder tracked xploder:

16:43]  LindenXploder Pot Tracker v2.11.71229 (just wear me): There is an Xploder @ secondlife://FRANCE3D Saint Barth/224/31/22 with a pot size of 1000L$, alerts disabled for 5 minutes.

looked in full list and it was at top of list  with only one person in the round.

like a couple of dozen others, I visited the TP SURL and waited for the xploder to rez, which it did not, checked back to lindenxploder  tracker full list and it had gone off the active list  and now apeared on the  Recently Active Xploders  list. It was clearly a fraudulent use of the tracking system to get traffic to their store for free. I waited around and eventually the store owner (dim Rodex) turned up flying above the region and must have heard me talking to another resident in local chat about waiting to see if owner would show so I could ask them about the fraudulent use of their xploder. He never joined in the conversation but lurked around for a couple of minutes and then placed my name on the parcel ban list. He has not responed in local chat or in IM to explain or defend himself which goes to prove his guilt further, the co-owner (dina Fairport) of the group  (dimode) associated with the land also showed up but she never comunicated via local chat or IM either. I am not aware of an official mechanism for reporting abuse of the LindenXploder tracking service so please consider this a formal abuse report. I am not currently filing an abuse report to LL since the owners of this service can ban the abuser from further advertising fake xploders better than LL can. The Parcel has Group rez attribute set, Public rez attribute not set so it was either the published group owners or other group member assuming there are any others because it is not open enrollment

As to reverifying,..how about not being able to verify at all? Each time I try,it ignores me,and then kicks me off the eploder! Got any ideas here? What am I DOING WRONG.

  .... k, hands up, i accept i must be completely dumb but pls how on earth does one verify .. i click on the bag, it kicks me off, says i need to verify, do it now, sure absolutely, click the verify button ... and then what ??!!! i'm at this site just seeing a whole pile of comments and stuff ... where is there abything about actually 'verifying' ??  i'm posting this coz this issue with me has gone on for so long with never geting any help or assistance from those on the ground ..
any help or comments or just a simple explanation of what to do would truly be appreciated, please 

saddly, verification is not efective anti bot now. Bots owners, finally, found how to by pass xploder verification.

I can see in a lot of verified xploders how bots go in and make a lot of money. I think is very simple: User has DSL connection, log one bot, verified. reconnect (whit another IP), verified other bot and so., He (or she) has verified all your bots for 24 hours.

All of them are know bots. This happened in NoTtAmBuLa DiScO cLuB, Region: Authuruga and with xploder set to verified (1). Happend in others verified xploder (and xploder group with verification) too.

Verify is annoying, but is, may be, the best to control bots. Until now. I dont know how to stop bots, but I think that, as TMY say, while LL look at other side, nobody can do anything about it.

(sorry my poor english, my language is spanish, I hope you can understand me).

I've been out of SL for a long time dealing with some real life issues.  I still have my HUDs for sploders and chairs, but they don't seem to work?

The chair hud was working yesterday, but tonight it's down.  And the sploder hud shows one huge sploder as operating, but the sim doesn't exist.

Is this whole thing dead?  Or do I need new huds?  Or is there something else I need to do (new huds or change my settings or something)?

Can't Verify My Xploder....Can't Log Out Of The Site....And No Online Tracker What have I Paid For...?

I just bought xploder 2 weeks ago and i was suspended today for using it. Temporary suspended for 1 day. Lindens returned the Xploder to my inventory.
I didn;t know those are illegal...
I'm really shocked
