Please remove the 30 cap. This wont solve botting or stop them, wont even slow them down. The only way you can deal with botters and cheaters is manual moderation and constant ban waves. If you arent willing to spend money to improve the quality of your game, then you are failing your customers and players. its just that simple. I will never understand why companies such as yourself choose this road. You guys cant be that ignorant and delusional. You claim you play WoW but your actions speak otherwise. Truly disappointing honestly.

People that get name-changes due to reports of offensive names are actually able to re-name themselves the same name, so this seems to follow.
Why would you assume they aren’t doing this already? Because that’s a silly assumption.
Nice deflections, cant trust tho.

Why do you need a cap to run a report on which accounts are generating higher than normal number of instance IDs?

LOL nope not Stolz
Because all the people asking for the instance cap to be removed. They do a lot of instances on one realm and they’re giving cover to the botters.

No, we want to be able to farm for things like we used to be able to.
We want to help guildies her HoJ and SGC
We still need to farm for NR gear for Huhu
Etc, etc etc etc
This is an unintended nerf to feral druids…
etc etc etc etc
I don’t know why so many people are being obtuse about this.

I’m explaining why a cap helps identify botters.
I’m not saying you don’t have a legitimate reason for doing so many instances in one day.
Blizzard could give us actual tools to help them combat botting (right click report is a complete joke system)
see you all in 6 months when the next wave hits

I will never support something that adversely affects players regardless of the good intentions. The cap needs to be removed and they need to find a better tool for the identification system that they’re looking for.

This lmao.
Nobody except the ones who gotta farm HoJ and Pummelers have a right to complain about the instance lock outs.
If anything, seeing mages, one of the most broken classes who can AoE farm forever whine on the forums about not being able to abuse instances for make gold/boost makes me smile.
Seethe more watercoolers. And go take a god damn shower.

It doesn’t. The botters are also capped. The cover explanation isn’t well thought out.
Cap or no cap, you can run a report showing which .01% of accounts generate the most instance IDs and then look into them. The cap doesn’t help identify who is botting. Because bots can’t break it either. It only punishes players.
Called it- moment they got heat for the instance cap change they were going to have to announce a bot ban in order to divert attention and get their shills something to sing praises about.
Guess we’ll get another banwave the next time they make a huge change- remember to save a big one for right after you announce wow tokens, you’ll need it.

If botters instance cap on multiple realms on a daily basis, they’ll stand out from the crowd.
If they only instance cap on one realm, they’re losing a lot of their gametime and their margins grow small.
They would too if you just ran a report. You don’t need a cap.
I feel like with the 2nd Kaivax post we can expect the WoW token to be put in the game even earlier than I originally thought, I would say 1-2 weeks or so.
“WE HAVE FIXED THE BOT ISSUE, ENJOY THE WOW TOKEN YOU NEVER WANTED IN THE GAME!”
and the shills will praise.
If they just ran a report with no cap, they’d also pull up all the players who exceed 30 instances a day.
