Once connected, the bot is capable of performing any action which a typical player could do (if not more). In most zones bot have been granted at least moderator privilege to send out announcement messages, grant prizes, or even ban players. They are also capable of provided additional game play options by automating duels, provide "store" type systems, ship transporters and other custom actions.
