What are your reasons you don't use it or thoughts majority of people don't use it anymore?
story time
I remember the old SRL stats was able to turn on / re-enable bots on the script, for example:
you have 5 bots running on a single script
bot #4 gets a random you go to your SRL stats page, login
you see your current script has #4 unchecked:
you would login to your bot, manually & then fix whatever was going on, usually it would be a random, keep in mind this was probably back when SCAR was the main & I remember using wizzups essence miner with like 20 different accounts 2 hours each… I'd have progress reports that were months long because I'd be like oh 5 bots are down? and I'd go fix them then click update & wizzups script would put them back into the rotation..
I assume every "progress report" update from SCAR (which would be simba now) instead of only pushing X data to the server for updating the stats.. also pulled Y data from the server specifying which account was "active" in the script. This allowed you to disable/enable bots on the fly as your script was working.
I remember disabling accounts while they were actually the active ones, mining essence.. and it would take maybe 1-3 minutes and then it'd logout and go to the next account in line. and I'd then go and replace their pick with a better one, a rune one perhaps their mining level was now level 41.. and maybe I would level their attack so they can wield the rune pick too.
and sometimes, though rarely since wizzups script was pretty good.. they would lose their pickaxe, because back then you could hit a mining node and your pick head would fly off and you'd have to go find it.
These were all things that can be compared to randoms of today and yesterday, or just silly glitches that occur, and eventually all the accounts will be "disabled" and thus progress reports start back from scratch
I believe they may have said "reactivated x amount of times" depending on the script, I think a willow log chopper was the first one I saw do that maybe.
The splitting of the community, turning this site into villavu from srl-forums, making simba instead of scar.. etc all had part in erasing that stats system from memory. Though I remember it, maybe some others will too.
Keep in mind this was probably 10 or so years ago.
If I had known anything I do today, I would have preserved it and recreated it for todays use… and I'm sure in 10 years I'll be amazed at the nothing I know today, too.
