I was in the same boat as you and i can tell you Miqobot is an amazing bot. I was so hesitant of buying and using it but its been doing wonders so far. What i tend to do is i never ever ever ever do gathering with the bot and if I am i will 100% of the time be looking at the screen while i do other things, using a second monitor is perfect. Your flame barracks are your safe area. You can auto craft whatever, do squadrons. I use a scenario where i go out and exchange my items for seals, it is risky but the scripts are very well done. Again, the problem is sometimes the scripts for gathering will sometimes make you run into a rock or something and it will give a red flag to other players. Best thing is keep an eye on your bot. You will not be disappointed. And the people in this forums and the creator are extremely helpful. So in short, enjoy the bot just dont leave it unattended. oh and also when you try new things on the bot keep an eye on it to make sure it does work properly *if* you do by chance decide to leave it unattended.
