Still botters could just make another account and start again, but i guess that takes a bit more time for them. System could maybe track 'total account debuff number' to be more efficient. I would presume that bots would counter that by just using another character on the same account that will also get debuffed. Maybe you could also implement some system that will automatically report characters that get high enough stacks of the debuff. To counter that i suggest that buff could get you to negative pods so even if you delete everything in your inventory you still won't be able to move. I read in one of Izmar's post that she put heavy cannonballs in bot's inventory but they just deleted it so they could move again, that means that as long as bots can delete stuff from they inventory they could move.

I imagined it to work like this: first time you fail you get -100 pods for 5 minutes, second time -200 for 10 minutes, third -400 for 20 minutes and so on that way even if you fail couple of times accidentally you can still do your business. As for penalty for failing I would suggest a stackable -pod debuff instead of resource quantity debuff. Could you add that captcha to resource protectors instead of fighting them? It will not slow down players, instead it could even make things faster for them (I can imagine lower lvl sacrier spending some time chasing a protector on a large map), but it should hinder bots.

Why not implement similar thing here? I saw in some old update notes that captcha was added in game, but i never saw one (maybe they got removed or i just never triggered one, but that doesn't matter). In wakfu you occasionally encounter Cap Atcha and it's fight is like a captcha (surprisingly!) and if you fail it, you get harvest quantity penalty. I have s suggestion for countering bots, well, harvester bots to be more precise.
