Now finally some of the wow community is striking back against bots; will we start seeing actions by blizzard??? Thank you to that wonderful warlock on Kromcrush; Ill help you rank any time ! Also will we have our ranks adjusted due to the cheating…
Hopefully the ban waves go out right as the top cheaters are set to hit rank 14. The QQ on the forums will be epic.
i’m all in favor.
Waiting until then just screws over every other ranker who had to put in extra hours to remain competitive. If they’re going to do it, do it as soon as possible.
Speaking of, this reddit article is a good read. The comments are the important parts. “I’m a streamer and that means I’m better than you!”
That’s so much wasted RP for the people trying to rank right now. The only solution that isn’t frustrating for real rankers is to ban them now.
I doubt Blizzard will ban anyone.
Honor trading, outside obvious cases, is difficult to detect, and the rank system was designed to curtail bot trading, which is a big reason why honor is relative in the first place. Its cheaper and more efficient to design what we have, rather than enforce specific cases.
The noncheaters who make r14 are probably aware of the situ, and knew what they are up against.
Didn’t everybody remember how this goes, and what little Blizzard does to fix it?
on my server a guy summoned a bot and got him 100 DKs lol
God bless him!
I’m sure once people start getting the boot the ranks will adjust themselves as people play.
I’ll all for having to spend more time ranking up if it means Blizzard trolls the cheaters hard by banning them right before they reach 14.
Haha!
I watched a video a week or so back of someone doing that.
This.
Weeks of having to compete against bot just extended how long I need to grind by WEEKS at a time.
We already know what the honor system is and isn’t, but artificially making it harder for everyone just to spite a few cheaters is not good for the people playing correctly. Please remove the bots as soon as possible.
Blockquote I’ll all for having to spend more time ranking up if it means Blizzard trolls the cheaters hard by banning them right before they reach 14.
Then you obviously aren’t ranking up. No one is willing to extend weeks to their grind just to stick it to some cheaters. The people playing legit get hurt more than the cheater in this case.
That’s what we in teh business call “biting off your nose to spite your face”.
Your guildies are literally the ones cheating.
I would absolutely love to see the botters all get banned. We have botters on my server who are ranking and they are mostly in the same few guilds. They sit AFK in AV mostly although some are more sophisticated. Either way they are not good for anyone. There would be nothing better than these people getting 6 month bans. Blizzard needs to keep it up with the banning.
Was bots on my server, the report function didn’t seem to do a thing.
They were smart enough to be in groups so we couldn’t invite and summon them.
Only thing that was done is being blacklisted by every guild on the server, they will prob xfer off once they get the rank they want
just afk to rank 14.getting rank 14 is not a big deal.
if you logged into kromcrush you would see I am guildless ; I left the guild last week…I still raid with my 40 members but its a guild of 900 people too big for me; and really I know you were too; and zurgo and sycorax prolly are too
I never botted a day in my life. I detest botting, it completely ruins games. I was beyond active/responsive while I was bging.
