Bot train in Grahtwood for months that hasn't been banned. Why?
Bloody-Goodbyes
✭✭✭
There has been a bot train of the same bots, same names, same location running in Grahtwood for months now. I've reported them multiple times and so have a couple friends of mine. I've spoken in zone chat about them before too. I am a long time player of ESO and don't want bots returning to this game. Why despite all the reports haven't these been banned?
This is along the coast of Grahtwood behind Gil-Var-Delle.
I'm doing the last thing I know to do and that's coming to the forums, since nothing has been done despite numerous in-game reports to ban these bots. They are running the train now even as I post this thread. I apologize if this thread is in the wrong category as I didn't really know where to post something like this.
I have seen one at a crafting table in Rawl once. This leads me to believe these are player owned bots rather than Chinese gold seller bots. I'm not certain how bot programming or anything works but I know players can pay to have their toons grinded up so maybe its that. The bot 'leader' has a Volunteer pvp rank and one other bot also has a wolfhound pet. They are clearly running in the same pattern in a train you can go look at them yourself now if you want.
Please do something about them. I have seen bots outside Lorkratta Hills in Rivenspire and some in Coldharbour recently too. Even a cluster in the center of Rawl Kha at least twice. Please get rid of the bots, don't let them make a comeback to ESO that would be horrible.
Edited to say I found another bot train just now, to the right of the Brackenleaf map marker in Grahtwood. 5 of them there.

It's not letting me edit it so I guess I'll have to make another when its closed.
If you are on you phone/tablet as i am there will be a little cog icon in the upper right hand side of your original post (it should appear after you press select anything in the thread). Hopefully this helps. Also what server and platform are you. If its going down on pc na Ill report them as well after doing something probbing as well.0 -

✭In before close. They don't care about bots the ones I reported in November are still running around, they used to be little guys. Now they are big strapping cp ers.Sorcerna, proud beta sorc. RIP April 2014 to May 31 2016 DArk Brotherhood. Out of retirement for negates and encases. Sorcerna will be going back into retirement to be my main crafter Fall 2018. Because an 8 k shield is f ing useless. Died because of baddies on the forum. Too much qq too little pew pew. 16 AD 2 DC. 0 EP cause they bad, CP 2300 plus 18 level 50 toons. NA, PC, Grey Host#SORCLIVESMATTER actually they don’t or they wouldn’t keep getting nerfed constantly.0 -
Rajajshka✭✭✭They're still there... It's really dishearting to know that zos doesn't seem to care if bots run rampant now a days.

JUGSoMILK✭✭The could just be no life farmers, or a group who live together farming a heck out of some wax. In my experiences most of the bots don't run. My guess is a group of elite no life farmers with nothing better to do. I'm assuming the are farming stuff with scrap drops right? Or world bosses using only heavy attacks?0

Why do people keep defending bots with these sort of remarks?The could just be no life farmers, or a group who live together farming a heck out of some wax.
Bots are very easy to distinguish from real players that are just farming a spot.
Are you using 3rd party software to run bots? That seems to be the only logical conclusion for a post like this.

Sioryn✭✭Can confirm that the bots on the coasts of Grahtwood are still running free, even on the EU server. Reported them all but then found this thread; seems ZOS hasn't done anything about them. Sadly, reporting bots seems to be a waste of time.
I'm on PC / EU server, and the bots were running in a continuous pattern / train on the beach east of Brackenleaf.0 -
Turelus✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭PC EU as well and reported a train of bots the other night.
Whilst I know Jessica posted saying we need to keep reporting I think ZOS needs to agree there is an issue in their system at some point.
It's clear the reports are not getting into the hands of people who can deal with it soon enough if at all. I could expect a day or two maybe but we see some of these going on for weeks.@Turelus - EU PC Megaserver
