Im running V182 and since the Feb 28th patch the patch bot runs every time i start SS2. This is just an annoyance, but can be very, very annoying when relogging to clear some other annoying ingame bug.

Really? Can I get a reply to this or not? This is a most annoying bug

probably actually an update every time...

if the patchbot is running, then it mean your client version is outdated. quite simple really. If you were using a beta client, get the new one, if not make sure patchbot has the permission to overwrite your exe (its supposed to give himself those permissions but some antivirus/security wont let it do it even in admin mode >_>).
