Then I: feel angry because they're cheating and I am earning my stuff/gold honestly, feel frustrated because I see them constantly, and then I struggle to report them because its clunky as hell to hold some key while following 10 people in a small little clump of clanfears and twilights on their erratic unchanging path.love is love3 -

✭✭✭✭✭My reaction is bemusement.
My action is to take screenshots and try to write down their names because I've yet to figure out how to report a character without spelling their name perfectly (which is difficult bc bots have nonsense names). I wish I could right click on the avatar and report from there (which would still be difficult because they run around stacked on top of each other).
When the bots finally see me following them, struggling to keep up, they tend to disperse and come back 10 minutes later.
I wish there was another way to report this though, the drop down menus in the game are very confusing.#FiteForYourRite Bosmer = Stealth

oaflet✭✭✭So... how can I tell if someone/something is a bot? Like, what do they do that causes them to stand out?
I've never seen one that I was aware of, and have been playing on NA PC since the start. I must've seen plenty without realizing I was seeing them?
Yes, I really am that oblivious to my surroundings. I got lost driving to work last month. The same work I've been at for 8yrs. The SAME EXACT route I drive everyday. So I could probably have walked through bot Grand Central Station and never noticed.0 -

About 4 characters (or more) who are running either inside each other or perfectly behind each other in a line, in a repeating pattern. Usually they kill mud crabs or bears. They seem to know exactly when and where the next mudcrab will spawn because they are killing them in a predictable pattern. They all attack the one mudcrab at the same time. Usually each character is a sorc with two pets. Sometimes they are stuck against a wall and you can watch for 5 min as they run back and forth into the wall. A real person would have changed course or jumped over.
Real people who are farming in a group of 4 will gather mobs together and burn them with AOE in bulk, usually zombies. They tend to stop for Master chests, columbine, and other useful environmental stuff. Also they don't follow each other in a perfect line/ run inside each other the whole time.#FiteForYourRite Bosmer = Stealth

Not as expensive as they were, for sure.. remember when 1 Kuta was 8k instead of 2k? Or when dreugh wax would set you back quite a bit to gold a set of armor..

✭I get irritated because I know that ZOS either isn't going to take care of it, or is going to take until I am 85 to take care of it. I report some, all if I can. The group in Grahtwood that has been getting on my last nerve I don't think I reported all of them. I submitted like 15 screenshots the first go around a couple weeks ago. Went back the other day and individually reported several of them. That bot train is bizarre. When it is noticed that I am watching them a few different smaller groups break away from the main group. There were 3 of them doing unique actions and behaving like they were not bots for all of about ten seconds and then they went right back on the path of the others, running off to a spot and all turning once the reached the exact same spot and reunited with the main group after maybe another 30 seconds.
Just let me throw them into a box until someone at ZOS can properly review them.PC-NA - formerly, mommadani907Guild: Weeping Angels - Co-GMTwitter: @ Loralai_907 several Alt accounts....CP 1700+Active characters:Fauna Rosewood ( Bosmer Stam DK - Master Crafter/AD)///Loralai Darknova (Drunken Zombie Bosmer Stam Sorc - PvP/AD)Lilith Darknova ( Dunmer Mag DK - Master Crafter - PvP/AD)///and roughly 1billion alts1 -
NukeAllTheThings✭✭✭✭✭I shed a tear, stop and come to the forums to start a thread about how these bots took our jerbs!"it's important to state that our decision to go with subscriptions is not a referendum on online game revenue models. F2P, B2P, etc. are valid, proven business models - but subscription is the one that fits ESO the best, given our commitment to freedom of gameplay, quality and long-term content delivery. Plus, players will appreciate not having to worry about being "monetized" in the middle of playing the game, which is definitely a problem that is cropping up more and more in online gaming these days." - Matt Firor1 -
ThePrinceOfBargains✭✭✭✭✭
✭I let them do it. I'm through with the constant reporting because nothing ever gets done about it, and what's worse is that ZOS apparently thinks these guys don't deserve to be named and shamed. I just act like they're not even there whenever possible.3 -

Also it doesnt seem it helps, bots are still there.
