A Bot I reported 3 weeks ago ...

dkaneva

Is still farming the same pack of wolves in Crows Wood, spamming the same skill over and over again 24 hours a day, only leaving to sell. He was VR1, now hes VR6.

As Bruce Campbell says, "Gimme Some Sugar Baby!"

Get to it ZOS.

On the other hand, just imagine the infestation of wolves there would be in that zone if he HADN'T been killing them off for weeks straight. Perhaps the powers that be are afraid of disturbing the delicate balance of the ecosystem if they remove the wolves' natural predator too suddenly.

I totally disagree...
Its the wolves that are suffering here. Imagine the humiliation of being continually reborn and falling to the same weapon thrust again and again.
Give MOBS an ultimate ability too, that recharges every time they are killed by the same player...something like 'Summon Daedric Prince' has a nice ring to it.

I would go for EMP pulse, if it actually worked and all the robots dropped dead in a ring around it.

I kind of envy him, I mean, I can farm 20k gold an hr doing that plus thousands of hide scraps, so he must be makin a ton! At least I wasn't warned for naming and shaming the poor guy by using the army of darkness reference!

And this is exactly the reason why ZOS loses it.

This bot alone probably generated 300 - 500$ of revenue for his master. So if he gets banned there is no problem to repurchase another 5 bots, even without stolen credit cards.

They need to ban bots before they reach the profitable break even point, or the bots will keep coming forever.

How do you know it is bot. Just because you claim it is doesn't mean it is. If you reported it and it is still there after all this time. Then that means they have determined that it is not a bot and just someone farming.
