They're not world beaters, but I've never come across a real player who has made 22K at 100NL and never attempted to play a higher stake.
This is just one bot. Some are closer to break-even, some are slight winners, some are slight losers, but they take a lot of money out of the games all combined.

I figured out by switching tables and/or clicking away I can occasionally deactivate it but it's annoying to not control when your timebank gets used. Anyone know any solutions?
As far as I'm aware the timebank is automatically activated and there's no way to change that. If there is a way to prevent your timebank then I haven't come across it.
If you'd like to see a change to it you could put your feedback in their Suggestion Box.

Its crazy to me that while beatable, 10NL is far from easy unless you are already very very good at poker. At least during the day
Rake is also a substantial factor to winrates in the microstakes. Bot filled games + high rake = very few winning players.

Usually if I closed out the table and opened it again it fixed it. But I definitely lost a bunch of pots because of it. I've found it hard to play more than 4 tables without any of that table ninja stuff or whatever
Your timebank increases the longer you're at a table. I believe somebody in this thread found the exact amount of timebank increase over time spent at the table. I don't remember it exactly. It is a very slow increase.
