Wow this sure brought out le toxic players and activision shills.
Remember botters enjoy the game too… probably.
Bots, multi-boxers, Argentina accounts…
Blizzards response “right click more”

Why was your post coming up as ignored? The 2 posts that nailed what’s happened with their response have some strange status of “ignored”

Multiboxing is allowed, botting, which is completely different is bannable.

They were flagged by the community. Once enough people flag a post as trolling or inappropriate it will be hidden. Nothing to do with Blizzard directly. Just the rules of the forum.
Why
Thank you for being honest
A little much but ok

lol would have been nice to see bots that were reported actually getting banned instead of being seen weeks-months later still farming in the same spot.

I have noticed a rapid increase of in-game mail from said shady characters advertising their website and deals offered within.
Does the “report spam” function in the mail come to the attention of your team? do you look into these? are you able to shut these website down for theft of goods and services of your product?
But we know that this is not working from long time ago, right?
I’m giving up to report them, add them to friend list to see if they are getting banned but you know, they still active botting in the game for months before getting banned.
In this case they are already gained profit from RMT, and creating new botting accounts and don’t care about the old one.
If you keep them alive for months then you cant get rid of them, they multiply.

Unfortunatley to Activision this game is a way to hype up a game immensely for front load consumer response, then swifty leave the boat the moment it hit the water.
We pay 15$ for access to retail. This game doesnt even seem to be on their radar.
Edit: To be fair, atleast with months of community complaints they actually engaged us with a somewhat vague post!
This doesnt feel like the vanilla experience
There were actual in game gms in vanilla
Running out of time to fix this problem

Needed more than this. Of course we’re doing our part in reporting documenting and complaining about bots. They’ve already ruined the game, theyre blatantly fly hacking and turned the whole games economy into a joke. Logging in feels so hollow knowing these bots are making 1000s and 1000s of gold an hour afk botting.

Lol, “accelerating”. “Over the past few months”
Like accelerating from “zero” to “finally think about doing something”.
Over a period of a few months.
Nice acceleration guys, keep it up.

Can we do something about multi-boxers as well? Sure they are active players paying for subs, but it requires a 3rd party program to run them effectively. Isnt that also against TOS???
Or how about hiring more game moderators to moderate classic servers instead of relying on rcr for everything

Please let us know that some of the cheaters are getting banned. The Chinese ran WOW shows how many people are getting banned each month. Why can you not adopt a similar strategy?
The idea firmly in players minds is that Activision-Blizzard doesn’t care about cheaters, as long as they pay to keep their account turned on. Reporting players that are cheating does not seem to help, since they are there the next week, the next month, three months down the road I check and the players are still in badlands, stratholme, hinterlands, tanaris, ZG farming unhindered and unbanned. I report cheaters, but a lot of players feel that reporting does nothing, since the cheaters can make enough profit to have their bot turn enough real money transactions to make a living off it. They can resubscribe and keep botting right after their account was banned, with little to no effort.
Explain why they would ever follow the rules, when they profit so much from cheating?

Remember when actual people (GMs) answered your tickets on the spot? Never took them more than 15 minutes in my experience.
They’d even personally go (with a character) to the field to check on the situation.
I remember being afk-ish and have a GM whispering me to check whether I was actually in front of my computer or not.
Please, it’s not about the playerbase, it’s about an absolute lack of interest on the part of Blizzard to have a decent customer service.
