Because botting is sophisticated now. Highly user friendly, as in a potato could bot nowadays.
The problem is that there is no IN GAME support as in GM’s anymore. Not full time GM’s that are actively searching out these botters.
They’re banning off reports though. They will send in game mail to tell you that your report led to a ban.
The main problem is first and second time offense are leading to Suspensions a lot of the time and not permanent bans on that account.
Right. Obviously it is not enough when they do that. The bot problem actually kind of drove me to quit Classic for a while, it was so bad. I don’t want to pay a monthly fee to do what their paid staff should be doing with regard to finding and getting rid of bots, and I don’t want to play in such a poorly managed game.
Things seem better at the moment, having just come back about a year later. I don’t know if I dare hope for it to remain better.
Quite the epic necro there sir.
I’m a necro myself 
Why on earth did you necro this?
Felt like it.
The exploitation going on in classic is still largely out of hand.
