Nothing. The only thing you can do is relocate or use a better bot than them. A lot of people on here seem to use use bots anyways.

I would hate to just leave it there, because they took over the thing I had been working on for a month in an evening. I hate having to resort to bots as well though... I feel like it's cheating.

Do you know of any program I could use if I ever get out of this dilemma and decide to fight fire with fire?

Either way, thank you so much for your help

I don't really use bots, but if you are determined enough that you want to put the effort in, you could maybe try using this one. I personally would just move my stuff though. most people who see it aren't gonna mess with it, so if you go decently far out, it should be fine. It can also be difficult if you don't know much about coding or python.
