Can't report bot train identities anymore, so I'm posting here

It used to be you could get close enough to one of the members of a bot train and select their user name and report them. I found a bot train around Willowgrove wayshrine in Reapers March, and none of the members can be interacted with to report them.

So, I know we are not supposed to use @ names on the forum, but if we don't have any other choice, this is the one. Bots MUST be dealt with.

They are all level 35 (at time of reporting) and farming low level critters for XP. When I draw in enough critters to kill them, they respawn at the wayshrine and resume their pattern.

PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE BOTS! They are everywhere now, and now we have no in game option to report them apparently....or these guys have figured out how to get around it somehow.

    ZOS will tell you to use the in game reporting tool and apologize for the inconvenience the bots are causing you. However, what would be most fun to witness would instead be the ability to summon a GM in game and watch him BANHAMMER each offender in real time complete with burning player animations and screaming, then suddenly their rotten botting souls explode throwing their disgusting guts and other parts among the area. Large enough body parts can be teabagged for achievements and other potential rewards. The summoned GM then visually thanks the players in the area by bowing then flies away. Unfortunately, we don't live in this awesome make believe world. You'll have to report them in game, even if it's actually impossible to do so.

    These bots can not be interacted with. You can't use the in game reporting function to report them.

    I don't think that matters to ZOS. Not saying it's fair, but that's the way they deal with bots. If they've found a way to be unreportable then they are basically immune to any action against them if the only way to report them is in game.

    Make sure to include your server. If you're on PC, there's an add-on that captures the name of everyone you mouse over when toggled, and generates a report with each name clicked. Makes things a tad easier

    Botscanner 3000 2000 on ESOUI, if I remember right.
