Re: Last login details change to limit / block x3bot.
Dears,
These days the option to use x3bot largely eliminates the possibility of remaining incognito in the game world. This is a proposal to reduce or eliminate the operation of this bot. Please keep in mind, that my knowledge how does this bot works is weak, so please correct me if I'm wrong or post a comment to upgrade my proposal if You share my opinion.
3 ways which comes to my mind:
a)Last login to be treated as a sensitive data which could be locked by the account owner in the view of each character when searched.
b)Last login to be visible after request, so You need to click [Show data] to see what was the last login of each character.
c) Change the data format (months to Roman number), for example October to X. - and here please let me know ig that could affect on x3bot work.
Looking forward for Your point of view Administration and all the players.

Apparently, this is how it works: it checks the online list and then it checks the profile of each character on the list plus the characters of the same account (if those are not hidden in the profile).
b) and c) won't really change anything. a) on the other hand will also greatly affect the players, e.g. you won't be able to check if your friend/enemy has been logging in etc.
