Guild Wars 2

There needs to be an achievement for bot reporting. I do it at least 10-15 times a day, often ones that I’ve previously reported.

It doesn’t have to tell me whether an account got infracted / banned for it specifically, but something like one “successful” bot report that led to an infraction gives one AP.

They say they want us to report every instance of botting we see. I do so. Every time I go to a specific cave, there’s a pack of five identical guardians / warriors running a circuit. I report them every day when I go to that cave for the chest.

It would be nice to have some encouragement for the process. I was reporting everything that looked like a bot up until just a couple weeks ago… no im slacking on my duties… =[

Encouraging people to report people would only encourage people to report everyone. Some do want their rewards like right now after all.

That’s why I said: A point for every bot that gets infracted after a report. If it’s not a bot, you get nothing.

Right now it’s just tiring and frustrating, having to spend time following around a pack of identical rangers with juvenile brown bears.

I would much rather see a GM in game everyday going to each zone and asking for a bot report in chat. Then they can go to the area and ban them on the spot.

Make sure you post screenshots in all your reports. Its a lot easier for them to see botting behaviour in a screenshot than in code.

screenshots are always included, you have the option of including one you take specifically.

‘’Thanks for letting us know but the forums are not the best place for this. Using the in-game reporting system and the tickets is the best way of helping us dealing with this problem. Check the following thread for an update about the botting issue.

Just copy and pasting this so the Dev’s don’t have to bother :p
