Botters in every dungeon ruining the game.

Soloeus

The moment I walk up to an area with a boss, there are about 8 people with names like mxyqwe (an actual name) and hhjjhh (actual name). The moment a boss spawns, they kill it. Usually it doesn't even perform a single attack, and I can't get a single hit in. I am prevented from experiencing the game.

The best I can try to do is heal the botters hoping I can get loot, but I never get loot from doing this, nor can I do anything that deals enough damage to get myself loot or exp for the bosses.

This is ruining the game. You are showing that my business is less valuable than the business of Bot Farmers who, unlike me, can afford to maintain multiple accounts. You want their money, so you tolerate their behavior. And real players can't play the game to its full effect because these botters are in every single dungeon.

You should read the official "State of the game" post:

First and foremost, please know that we are doing everything we can to combat the gold spammers and bots – especially ones that “camp” dungeon bosses – that you see in game. I play the game every day; I see them too, and yes, they drive me crazy.

For one, posting actualy names is a big no no... and secondly... you nor I, nor anyone else of the players has any idea what they are actualy doing about this problem... So to be honest, either wait or move on

Nail on the head right here.
Noone can help to fix this problem, except for reporting every bot you see. And yes, it does actually matter unlike what the impatient nay-sayers say.
You will simply have to wait for ZOS to undertake permanenet action or stop playing altogether. It's your choice.
There are loads of people around who don't get bothered by it. Me incldued.

Also, naming and shaming isn't a good idea since you can recieve warnings for it and lose your posting priveleges. If those are real names, you better remove them.

They clearly aren't doing everything they can, but at least they claim to be working on it.

That said, I've seen the same 5-6 botters in the same dungeon for the last 3 days straight.

Every day, I've wasted my time reporting each. I also wrote their names down, and remember what they look like. I know they are the same botter.

It's time to stop pretending like they are responding to our reports about botters.
