    That sounds like something a bot would say... -_-

    If I am a bot... do I get immortality, but the lose of emotions would make life meaningless.I shall pass on this.

    They arent even allowed to have fun, they only run in circles. :(
    Poor bots, their owners are mistreating them, and we must stop these awful people.

    As someone who farms/grinds mats etc all day , most of my game play tbh , I run into tons. Honestly I don't care and I don't report them. Like anything else , falls on deaf ears and the company will never act on it , so why waste my time. Not my job , should be in game GM's that do this.

    I like to follow them around and roleplay a bot. Then I report them all.

    I troll them with NPCs and adds to kill them for me >_> sometimes a PvB is challenging <_< Sometimes you make them fall in a pit and get stuck or die.

    Last one I encountered was in the Forgotten Waste at a heavy sack. I messed with the Heavy Sack spawn time and watch the guy jump instead of getting the Heavy sack then ambushed him with adds.

    I immediately drop whatever I was doing and report each and every one of them before resuming whatever I was doing.

    ^This is what I do ...

    Report and move on. It's been a long time since I've actually seen a bot though, but I don't usually go where people have been saying they are, either.
    i have seen one confirmed since I returned this year.
    This was north west Stonefall an battleground and quest area so I spent some time in the area.
    It was 6-8 regular player from low level up to cp400 running around killing enemies.
    I tough they killed time waited for nearby dolmen to activate but non reacted and and another guy did the dolmen
    I might have seen other but not noticed.
    Player run bots grinding can be hard to verify if you just pass by, this draw my attention as it was an bad farming spot so I assumed dolmen group.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    I'm on PS4 - wouldn't know a bot if I tripped over one.
    Much harder with real bots on console you need an hacked console or an pc masking as an console.
    As I understand rubber-banding is more common on console but it don't work well on dolmens anymore.

    I feel like :s . Then I am angry at Zos because I can't get a GM to port in and insta ban all of them. Sure miss the old way they banned people in games. Now they just turn a blind eye and actually encourage it.

    You report some? You report every single bot you see?

    How do you react? What do you do?

    Step 1: follow the bots around for a min or two to get a good look at what they are doing/who they are
    Step 2: press F10 to save the last 5 minutes of gameplay my Shadowplay is continually recording
    Step 3: publish video on youtube
    Step 4: create a support ticket in-game and paste the video link into it.

    I wonder why the heck mats are still so darn expensive...

    Mats are nearly worthless, at least on PC NA.

    I just lead unexpected mobs over to bots. They don't fight them effectively. They die.
    My favorite is the lurcher. Lurcher will *** bots up.

    I immediately run to the forums and howl about bots ruining the game.


    Not really, I ignore and move on. I've never had bots affect me in any way.

    I once reported two bots. It was a tedious process and I got sent two automated emails that clogged my inbox. Henceforth I just moved on and ignored the bots.

    I try to talk to them to see if they respond if not I'll report them
    If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.
