I’m not sure if A-net already have a sure-fire way to spot or prove botting characters, I don’t have a suggestion for a solution either but I wanted to get a devs opinion on a help-from-players-solution other than the “report” option.

I am currently in Kessex Hills and have been around Barnabys task for 10 minutes. Every now and then this long chain of Rangers run by and change direction at the exact same spot following the same pattern. They all where half naked and used the same pet. This is on the Whiteside Ridge-server btw.

Since this chain of rangers has to be reported one by one (reported at least 10 suspicious bots today) I would like a devs opinion about recording the bots’ patterns and follow them around for awhile thus getting the bots’ names on tape plus evidence of botting. I’m not suggesting removing the report option but suggesting another method of “reporting” since I don’t know how the devs check for botting at the moment.

Opinions or suggestions from players about this?
