Is the bot farming taking place in Bangkorai allowed?

Obviously they have rubber-banded their controllers - or are using the easy method found on the internet. But these guys are just completely afk bot farming... its obvious for everyone to see what is happening here. Is this allowed?

    No it's not allowed. Take some footage and send it into ZOS to look at.

    Shouldn't need to take any footage... any ZoS gamemaster can visit the Werewolf quest area/town in Bangkorai and see it for themselves. All sorcs with clanfear and twilights out... all afk and none of them moving other than just firing their fireballs at the spawn spots repeatedly.

    @Alucardo

    I send footage to both @ZOS_GinaBruno & @ZOS_JessicaFolsom a couple of weeks ago - haven't heard anything back but I assume that they're at least aware of it.

    That's all you can really do for now. It's good you sent it in so they at least have records of it.

    The periodically will loot the bodies. The old "pig farmers" did the same thing.

    Just look at the one guy in chat selling 160,000 (that's right... one hundred and sixty THOUSAND) rubedo leather for 9k a stack. Bot farmtastic.... What will ZoS do? Probably make it so those werewolves are no longer lootable - or don't respawn as fast... the bot farmers move to the next locale and us genuine players are left punished for their behaviour. Seems fair doesn't it?

    Well... with all this rubedo leather on the market, prices should go down fast. Don't you just love the markets.

    Enable auto loot, touch loot button time by time.

    It sounds like massive farming to me, which is why the dreugh wax price will finally drop as well. Btw it is not a bot (my guess), since third party software on ps4 is much harder to use than like on pc.

    I'm not going into the method... but rubber band or even a simple usb drive can do it. Like I said, not going to explicitly put up a cheating method here - but it is MORE than possible.

    The price won't drop... because those who are doing it are all the same person - and if that person controls the only large stash in the game of a product - he then gets to control the price. Whilst its not a monopoly on ALL the leather available, he can continue to sell it at the same price others sell it at... just think about that for a moment.

    Either way... this is against terms of service. What are Zenimax going to do?

    Well... I won't mention the guys PSN that obviously is doing all the selling - and claims in chat that "Chinese farmers" are getting all his rubedo for him... like we believe that. He's farming rubedo, selling it for gold and then selling that gold for real money. we all know the score... But what are we doing about it?
