Guild Wars 2

I’ve been seeing a major increase in bots lately which really saddens me – i know ANET is cracking down hard, but something is seriously going wrong when i hear people GLOATING about how they “abuse” the bots in a way that gets them money. I won’t mention HOW, because i want as little as possible of how they’re doing it getting around, even though it only takes a bit of common sense as to how they’re gaining money off bots.

What will happen to these people? I reported them for botting, because I seriously have no idea what other category i can fit them into, and does anyone know why Anet havent included a description box to add details to reports (or can someone from ANET answer this please?)?

I just don’t get how so many people who exploit things remain rich out there and feel proud about it. It’s infuriating.

EDIT : also, sorry if this is in the wrong area. I didnt know where else it would fit.

You want a honest answer?

Nothing will happen. ANet might say they are dealing with it but as players we see each the the same bots in the same areas. They just don’t have the resources to fight it.

The problem imo are gold buyers. All other MMORPG suffer from this problem and the source is the one buying it and creating demand for this black market.

Blizzard gave up and became a RMT in Diablo 3. Only when a gaming company decides that is time to take action against the source of the problem it will end (or at least get close to insignificant). Until then, it will be false promises while we see these bots every day slapping our faces.

They have banned quite a few accounts so far. So, keep reporting them and most likely we’ll see a sweep of them like in GW1.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback, it’s appreciated. We are taking such issues very seriously, and it’s one of our top priorities at the moment. Our team is working very hard to find the best way to solve this.

But as we explained, we want to give you an update about that only when everything will be setup, not before.
