I am standing here at the zone into Straits of Devastation comming from Mount Maelstrom and I notice about a dozen people appearing and reappearing. After less than a minute I notice it’s the same people, over and over. I know alot of people are becoming aware of these warping bots, and just for the sake of catching some easily, all you need to do is sit at the zone in apparently, as you’ll see them with clever names such as Klgsad or Nvbdfv or Sdfgsdfe. These are only a few that I captured on Ehmry Bay within seconds of zoning in and hitting print screen a few times.

Honestly I am considering running FRAPS while I go to lunch every day and just posting this huge pimple of a problem on youtube weekly. I could probably make a channel out of it, it’s such a plague.

These bots ruin the player driven market, they exploit the Black Lion Market by driving gem = gold prices up and down, and they pretty much run for self profit sites like IGXE and its sister sites, by selling in game gold at a rate twice as cheap as the in game Gem to Gold / Gold to Gem system.

I’m simply posting this here out of disgust. As a long time Guild Wars player I can tell you this has been an unsolved and ongoing problem that has carried over to Guild Wars 2.

Hopefully people take note of these hot spots for catching exploiters, and send in a few screenshots. Anyone on ANETs side can literally just stand in the spot i described above and catch them all day.

I can’t help but wonder if ANet and IGXE don’t have something worked out together...
