Botting
Botting means using automated bots or scripts to do work online for you, usually to fake activity, speed up grinding, or gain an unfair advantage.
People say someone is botting when the activity looks less like real human effort and more like automation doing the heavy lifting. In games, that can mean farming items or leveling.
On social platforms, it can mean fake followers, fake clicks, or spammy traffic that makes an account look bigger than it really is.

What People Mean When They Say Botting
Botting is the live term for automation that replaces normal human action. It usually points to scripts, bots, or software running in the background to click, post, farm, follow, or repeat tasks at scale.
The word carries a shady read almost by default. If someone says a player is botting, they usually mean the person is skipping the grind or gaming the system, not just being efficient.
Where You'll See Botting
You will hear it in gaming chats, moderation talk, reseller circles, and social media criticism. It shows up anywhere people suspect fake engagement, automated farming, or unfair speed that a real person could not pull off that fast.
Online, botting can sound technical or accusatory depending on the room. In a game lobby it might mean cheating.
In marketing talk it might point to fake traffic. In a comment thread, it is often a quick callout for obvious fakery.

Is Botting Still Used?
Yes. Botting is still very current because automation is still everywhere, from games to spam accounts to low-effort growth hacks.
The word has not gone cute or harmless; it still reads as a real accusation, and that makes it feel active rather than dated.
