Why I give GW2 9/10
ANet said they just hired, and are working on spinning up, a whole team of people dedicated to dealing with bots/scammers/gold sellers.
I don’t think they anticipated that it would be as big of a problem as it has become.
Fortunately, on my server (tarnished coast) there seem to be very few issues with it compared to other servers.
I’m on Henge of Denravi and really haven’t noticed a lot. Seen a few gold sellers and one ranger-bear train, but nothing really obnoxious.
They’ve said they’re working on it, and it’s only been 2 months or so since the game launched. Plus, the huge Halloween event and all the other stuff going on.
I think ArenaNet got a bit taken by surprise with botting / goldfarming with GW2. But they’re working on it so I’m not too fussed.
I’m on the Vabbi server and I see bots constantly – not a day goes by without seeing AT LEAST 5 bots…… I’m getting tired of reporting because I have to do it every 15 minutes….

Hello everyone.
As Hickeroar has correctly pointed out, new steps have been taken in order to deal with the issue of botting. Please, check the following thread, where Colin Johanson explained in depth where are we standing right now.
We will proceed now to lock this thread.
Thanks for your understanding.
