How to report a teleporting bot.
This is a neat idea, hadn’t thought of it. Not only do I hope they do not lock this post, it would not be a bad idea to sticky it or include it in some stickied post about reporting bots.
smack..Wut?…smack…smack…
There is another trick. if you are in farming session. always ready to press screen shot. so if you see someone suddenly pop up. just press ss. then look at your ss folder. Pm that person. then report…

Doesn’t work anymore i noticed, i used to report them, but now they are so fast its impossible..
Unless its a Rich node, i find the bots are way too fast to report anymore..
Basically..
Appear and Disappear (in the time it takes to read those three words) they are gone..
So that explains it. Saw my first one today. You’re right, they are very very fast.
I never understood how the teleport hack works isn’t this stuff server sided?
The game client still has to report to the server about your character’s current position and what you’re doing (the server can’t predict in what direction you’re going to run next, for example, or whether you’re going to cast Fireball or Flame Burst on an Elementalist). Most teleport hacks in games involve using a hacked game client that sends false data to the server about your current location.
How can you even “guarantee” those are hacks. They might just log in and log out. Or log out to loss agro and log back in.
I’m really just asking because I do see this sort of behavior from time to time. And I’m uncertain if I should report because they might be just log in and log out or going to heart of the mist etc. It is hard to tell.
I don’t want to report wrong people by mistake.
