I know it would cost a little bit extra, but would it be possible to just get a GM to check the dolmens and boot these guys every now and then? This is sending a really bad message to your paying players that these guys can get away with this day in and day out.

Is that a joke? People have done this several times, they're still there.

It's not a joke. It's very possible that these groups have previously been removed, but are returning with new accounts, so please submit an official report. This is the best and quickest way to get the information reviewed by our TOS team.

Agree.
As long as the in-game policing remains poor then this will continue to get worse.
Or simple solution... only give XP/Gold etc for opening the chest and not for killing the monsters that spawn i.e. remove the incentive for botting at dolmens

Gina he problem we're having is the official in game means to report is slow and clunky for this.
Is it possible for ZOS to do a review of these tools or supply the community with an email we can send information to directly (also being able to supply screenshots).

They ruin it entirely for new players who just wish to play the game as it's intended to be played. Add to that, if a new player sees others doing it and getting away with it, they'll think it's ok for them to do it. Thus the problem just keeps evolving.

This is not a solution. It's just going to create more problems.Or simple solution... only give XP/Gold etc for opening the chest and not for killing the monsters that spawn i.e. remove the incentive for botting at dolmens
This will have no effect on PC though, one could change the macro from "Mouse 1 Down" to "Mouse 1 Down, A 0.5sec, D 0.5sec"The easiest solution is to remove weapon firing from the code function which determines idle time. In other words, as long as people are standing and firing, they'll get booted by the game for inactivity. Most developers have removed the firing mechanism from this logic, so I'm not sure why ZoS included it.
Er, it takes more than a couple of days to level a new character to 160 even botting in a NEW account, your suggested explanation is pretty unlikely.ZOS_GinaBruno wrote: »ZOS_GinaBruno wrote: »When you guys run across what appear to be botters, please make sure to report these players through our official channels so we can address it quickly.

All my characters are parked at VG, & I've seen you there quite a lot.
The pics the OP has linked are very tame .. as the VG dolmen usually has at least 30 'afk' people parked at it.
I levelled a new character a few weeks ago, a Khajiit, & well, if it's night time in-game, & whilst on that Khajiit character, at the dolmen, the picture on my tv will freeze & then I have to close ESO & restart .. the huge burst of flame from the heavy attacks by all the 'rubber-banders' at the same time quite simply lags-out the game for me.
.. Daytime in-game is manageable, I just get random stutters at that dolmen .. but nevertheless, it shouldn't be happening, at all.
I am already questioning myself as to how much longer I'll be willing to put up with what's happening at dolmens, ZoS's ToS make clear that 'botting', in any form, is not permitted, yet ZoS are openly contradicting themselves & their own ToS by allowing 'botting' to continue unhindered 24/7
I just wish something would be done to stop these people ruining the game, that's all.
