The Elder Scrolls Online: Account Witnessed by Gamemaster Suspension Notice

Kodrac · March 2017

72 hours eh? I wonder how long it stays on their record. By the time they get around to suspending them again the first infraction has probably worn off so they'll never get a harsher penalty for doing it again.

Well, if ZOS needs more Game Masters to help fill that particular void and police the game, I volunteer.

Muahahahahaha!!!

This is also a good idea! There are a whole ton of people in cyro. I need to 'police'!

Glad to see this, thanks for posting it.
It needs to happen more often and to more people that are do any sort of cheating
Now, cut the nonsense and get your act cleaned up when you come back.

Has anyone seen these mythical GMs running about, watching people play?

They don't have to be visible. Early days in the game when bots were really bad around delve bosses people would get an area say/tell "Everyone who isn't a bot, move away." Then a very short while later the invisible gm would nuke the bots. Sometimes they were visible, sometimes showed up as a ghost figure, sometimes a normal character. It was great. I'd love to see it happen again at several dolmens I can think of.....

sooooooo @casinoguy ...you do of course see some irony here in yourself - a "casino" guy trying to improve the "house/eso" odds of boosting your characters performance through a little afk action...kinda like if you wuz a "wallstreet" guy trying to figure out a way to p2w...

Achievement unlocked:

Slaughtered II: Defeated by GM.

I would say:

[GrandMaster's Ban Hammer] : Get your account banned for the first time.
[GrandMaster's Execution] Get your account banned permanently.

It is also odd. It is against the rules to talk about moderation isnt it...

It is almost like they used a fake account to pretend they have moderators just so people could come in here say how great it is, even when there are none. The thread should be locked and fade away...

Anyone need a tinfoil hat? Ive got lots of extras!

They can set their characters to be invisible, so they are only seen if that's their intent.

Sure, but that doesn't stop me from seeing them. I see everything.

What is it is all smoke an mirrors. What do we have a proof? A post from an account that has been to the forum exactly twice...

What better way to make you think they exsist then by pretending they exsist...

They were on the grassy gnoll!

All seeing eye is an good metaphor.
Do you know how easy it would be to datamine all people who got xp from dolmens many times each day.
now focus on them who does nothing else for an hour, not getting other xp or using wayshrines.
now log all their actions just heavy attack for +3 hours, i call it an kill file.
Should not take more than an day to make that filter.
Some more time to make sure you don't get false negatives.

Gah. I wish they would rewrite this rule. Call it something else!! There is no automation here outside of what the game does naturally!

That would only matter to someone who was extremely *** retentive, or who intends to follow only the precise letter of the law instead of the spirit of the law. The spirit of the law, as is obvious to anyone, is that if you aren't actively there playing and reacting to what's happening in the game, then GTFO. As far as I'm concerned, even if you aren't using a rubber band, like if you were doing something as lame as holding down the mouse button while reading a book, you should be booted.

Yeah, this makes the GM "catch and release" a tad more difficult.

TerraDewBerry · March 2017

I'm really glad to see this. I hope ZOS gets rid of all the rubberband farmers at the dolmens. I'm so sick of seeming them. It's a step in the right direction.

That would seriously mess me up, because I don't pay attention to area tells/chat because of harassment and bullying. LOL. I wouldn't be in favor of this AT ALL.

LOL. I guess once I resurrected myself pretty fast, the gm would figure out that I wasn't a bot, though. That would be hilarious.

If you were paying attention to the game, at the time, you would notice. When a number of people suddenly stop playing and move away from the local boss, you would know something was up.
