Guild Wars 2

This whole DR thang is dragging on way to long, so this will be my last post on the subject.
All my personal findings show some DR on items, but no DR on Karma. I have plenty of screen shots to support my claims, yet still there are those reporting being hit by harsh DR.

I have seen next to no evidence from any of them to support their claims, but rather than call a whole bunch of players liars I got to wondering why some people are hit and others are not, assuming everyone involved is100% honest with their claims.

As we know the system was implemented to combat Bots and their farming, but seemingly hit legitimate players as well, while leaving others unaffected.

This leads me to believe one of two things may have happened,
Firstly that a players behaviour mirrors that of a bot, i.e. they farm the same area over and over, do nothing in between, do not relocate. Or,
A player has been wrongly tagged as a bot. A lot of us see the bots in action, a lot of us report the bots. If the actions of a legit player mirror that of a bot, perhaps they have been reported as such, and tagged as such?

Now I believe Anet will have some kind of identification tool, but there is always human error, and lets not forget this feature was implemented later in the game, perhaps there are bugs, or kinks that still need to be worked out.

Regardless of ones view on the actual DR system, it is clear some of us are not effected (or not effected to the extreme). People love to rant and rave, but there has been a distinct lack of investigation by the players on the how and why the system kicks in. Without an official announcement by Anet on the subject we can only speculate.
