I'm sure this has been suggested before, but I would just like to re-suggest it.
Players should be able to create a room so that bot-stract would not make a difference while in that room.
There are people I've played in which I'm sure they've been using bot-stract, because my brother has recorded the # of hits each player has dealt, because I'd been curious. Some 221's I've played against the ratio is 3:1, and we end up having nearly the same HP, even when the gear is the same. When asked if bot-stract is enabled, they say it's disabled. If bot-stract is enabled, does more bot-stract drop when the player dies? I've noticed there are times when there's about 8 packs of bot-stract that fall, and other times when it's just 2.
