If you find their farm and repeatedly kill their friends instead, you will make fantastic AP and build your collection of salty whispers. Win/win, except the nasty callouts in zone for something like two years now.

I remember a couple of people getting done for kill trading a year or two ago. The question is, are they as stern as they were back then?
The hard part is if they're being clever and not going overkill. It's easy enough to report the fools that hit 1 mil a day into the campaign.

The problem is finding them in the first place since they do it in late hours and remote areas.

AFAIK it's not considered an exploit. Does PvP require someone to fight back? If so I've done enough death ports to be guilty. If wall repairing and PvDooring the map to get emp isn't an exploit, why would this be? I think the only reason ZOS took action with the Bleakers flipping was the scale. They've certainly never addressed some of the blatant emp selling and swapping on low pop campaigns.
The first time I tried for emp I got a crash course in AP farming, and nearly got emp farming the farmers before I decided I'd rather have sleep. They are either 1) in a delve, because battle crosses don't show up on the map and it's easy to refresh your AP buff, or 2) at a resource, which gives double AP. They will be near a keep with easy respawn or, if very stupid, they have a forward camp up near a resource which is bound to attract attention. (Of course that requires spais.)

Source or I call BS on that statement.
Guys, there is only one active PvP server. All Zenimax would have to do to fix AP exploits would be to hire a few game masters to cover the full 24/7 cycle and give them the possibility to get permanent invisibility and teleportation to players. Then have them monitor the top10 of every faction and act accordingly when they see suspicious gains.

Three platforms, two regions, multiple campaigns. That's a lot of GM work hours to sit having someone logged into the client.
Also everything happening is logged, if people are doing this they'll be able to see it in their logs if they look.

OK so woop-woop people have an incentive to defend again.
But...
These scumbags that farm emperor by killing their friends at resources and keeps are in high-heaven now.
It has been going on for years but the question is... How can ZoS or us combat these exploiters ?
I stuck for ideas but wanna put the discussion out there. Maybe some genius has a solution...
Get video/screens of them doing it. Send to ZOS (Brian, Gina Jess in PM as well) and they should be penalised for this as it's against their rules.

I'm at a loss with how they fix this. I pin most of the blame on alliance switchers and all the nefarious deeds they get up to which a lock will hopefully switch
However... This type of AP boosting is pretty hard to stop.
Honestly for me its the single biggest issue PvP has right now, boosting, flipping, cheating, switching. It ruins peoples interest in the game. It demotivates people to play properly and it corrupts other people who quickly think its the only way to go.
@ZOS_BrianWheeler tell us you have a way to track boosting boozos that we can ban like the vAS exploiters?
Quote honnestly id prefer you to fix boosting than lag at this stage.
