Check the bot reports once in a while
I agree all the bots is getting out of hand right now. You see them running around in some places. Then standing still in others while killing monsters. You also see them posting in map chat trying to sell. When I see them I do report them of course.
Maybe it would help Guildwars2 support tech people. If they ADDED another option to the in-game report maybe like ‘RMT’ or something.
That when users report those in-game mail they get and the map chat bots. They can use that new ’RMT" option. As it is right now some people might use the Spammer option while others might use botting report option.
I would think this might give the tech support people harder work.
In the last 2 1/2 days I’ve seen the same Doom You standing near the bridge in Kessex Hills just shooting at nothing until the centaur start their round of attacks.
I also noticed that all the drops during these particular area events suddenly disappear before I can pick up anything. Is this something new with botting too? I have not experienced this happening anywhere else in the game… yet.
I’ve sent an in-game report on this guy yesterday by right-clicking on him but I guess it was not followed up as I saw him again today standing in the exact same place and still shooting away at nothing. I was going to send another report on him but in the text box where you send your complaint I read a warning to those who report other players that it would not be followed up unless there was in-game chat about that particular person who is botting. I don’t think anyone wants to bother chatting about someone botting while they are fighting, they just want them dealt with and gone so we can play without this distraction that takes away from enjoying the game.
I’d really would like to know how and where to report these bots so they will be taken seriously and dealt with. Until then I’m not going to bother playing in these areas where I find them any more, they are a real distraction.
There’d been weeks reporting bots for me any many people and no answer. You should stop fixing female main story dialogs and do something about important things.
Those blood bots on Frostgorge Sound are really annoying.
Thanks.
Are you seriously expecting a personal response to a bot report? Just report them and move on. Story dialogues are something many people will only ever see once, so I’d say it’s much more important to fix them first—if, you know, the two were at all related, which they probably aren’t.
Just got back from the game to ask if anyone has seen this before?
There’s a group of 4 player/rangers with juvenile brown bears running a circuit around this area from the broken bridge in Kessex Hill and around the Wallwatcher’s Camp. So far I’ve seen them run around 15 times before coming to ask about this. It appears to be botting as they don’t change their course at all, just running this big circle around these areas shooting anything in their way and repeating it over again.

I’m not expecting a personal response, I’m just expecting for they to do something if people report them for weeks and they are still there. With “people” I mean a lot of people

Hi everyone.
Thanks for your concerns. We understand that is rather annoying to see the same bots (and in big quantities) all over again in the game but we are working actively on it, among other urgent issues. So please, keep on reporting those fellows.
I will proceed now to lock the thread.
Thanks again.
