Throughout my leveling journey from 50-60 I found a dozen of druid bots in Shadowlands, took screenshots, recorded and reported them via in-game report system and using the email (hacks@blizzard.com), 2 days later I got a mailbox about report feedback, and they all went offline.
Great! I was thinking, the bots got banned (aparently). SIKE LMAO, they are ALL online right now honest gold farming!
Honestly blizzard, why? Why do you have a system that doesnt even WORK? Are you mocking your costumers? I wish I could be a GM and spend my whole day banning bots/multiboxers.
And theres MORE, if you type /who zerethi mortis rogue on tichondrius wm off, you have a suprise.
And the fact that you CANT EVEN REPORT THEM for cheating because they are stealth and you cant target them, is so disapointing, I am honestly thinking about giving up on this game, tolerance with hacking is too much, I cant handle.
Do you guys realise that youre just encouraging people to BOT themselves because yall dont even CARE?
Note: You may argue that they are brand new bots etc, but no. The druids I saw in SL had achieves from 2020⌠2 years boting already. Its sad, really really sad.
Unfortunately I cant add links to the screenshotsâŚ
They donât just make new accounts for bots, they frequently steal account information. Thatâs probably some poor sapâs actual achievements youâre seeing.
As for timing, they usually ban bots in waves as they figure out whatever workaround theyâre using to get through the anti-bot software thatâs already in place. Banning them one at a time wouldnât accomplish much.
That just doesnt makes sense. I bet that if you dedicate like 2 people for high pop realms to track bots and ban them it makes a big difference. They will have to buy/steal accounts all again. The truth is that they dont care or dont have people on the subject. Hire me, I will gladly dedicate 10 hours a day busting bots/multiboxers.
With the money they make, buying a token to boost them is a drop in the bucket. If you want to fix the problem, look at fixing the reason it exists. Other players buying gold from RMT websites. Without buyers, the farmers wouldnât be out there boting all day long.
Correct me if Iâm wrong but I get the feeling that you think a day would go like this âYou sit at your desk, login and go out to where you know botters will be, see them and then right click them or whatever and choose âBanââ? Thatâs not how it would go down, you donât get to just use your eyeballs you have to use whatever system Blizz currently has in place for verifying that the players are in fact bots so you would get less done than you think you would.
The blue post doesnât mean a whole lot when you can even hop into classic, even from the start and find so many of them around. Really the problem will always be around as long as people keep buying gold and other illicit services. Gaming companies like Blizz and Jagex seem to be behind on that front currently but hopefully in the future they get things more back on track.
I am less sure that itâs anywhere near that simple.
Bots and gold-selling companies take money away from Blizzard. I promise that if they were that easy to deal with, they would have been dealt with by now.
More than 24 hours sessions gathering and doing the same route looks like a bot for you? Blizzard should change TOS in order to get rid of bots more easily, if you have to write a compendium on the bot than im sorry, we will keep seeing bots forever.
I do that, I spent 11 hours a day farming for essentia last week. But I dont do the same route for hours, and when I gather I dont have 20 rogues coming out of stealth to get the node at the same time I do.
But you could. If you just have 20 accounts all on /follow, thatâs perfectly allowed (and giving Blizzard piles of money too, so especially allowed).
