These bots move in-game and have the club name [BOT] (And it's only in BR)

A lot of these bots are found outside the orientation matches in both BR and Mixtape, next to them they don't have a bot marker.

I can't cite any sources, but there are a lot of bot/afk scripts out there for farming XP.

If these bots were to be leaking outside of the orientation matches (Which I don't see any reason code-wise for that to happen), they would still have the [BOT] tag.

Next to that it would be a full squad of bots, not single no-fill players.

The website I just looked at said that the bots gamer tags mimic real peoples gamer tags, have you played an orientation match and seen these bot tags first hand? Even if they did they can easily add bots to a lobby and not tell you fortnite did it, why would they tell you honestly it's not a good look

    All names include the Bot_ prefix before the names.

    There's no reason for EA/Respawn to add these bots themselves, playcount is still completely fine.

    People will farm XP on these bot scripts so they can sell the accounts.

    Not all regions would be fine my server - Sydney some times takes awhile to get games like a year ago it would be difficult to get games at around 3am-6am and I'm sure it's not the only one and I don't think people are buying accounts that have a bit of XP it's pointless? Maybe accounts with high kills master/Pred badges and 4k 20 kill badges I don't see why anyone would pay money just for an account that has a bit of time played and a little extra XP it doesn't make sense who would buy that

    Cheaters buy high level accounts, so they look legit in the game.

    A low level player walking into the game melting the lobby, is extreme Sus, oh, also, if you weren't aware, if you are low level and do highly unusally good, you can get a ban just on unusual activity, being suspected, so this is why high level accounts are sought after by cheaters.
