Are Bot Reports Worthwhile?

    At the end of the day we just don't know.

    So report anyway - at least then you can say that you yourself tried, even if it came to nothing further up the chain.

    You cannot send video files true, there does not even seem to be a specific category for reporting bots either. You can though upload the video, as unlisted is best, and send them the links.

    Do we have any official confirmation whether reporting bots has any value whatsoever? I get the confirmation email, but does it really eliminate any of the harvesting bots?

    We all wonder if any actions are performed by ZOS.
    It's really easy to find the bots since the spots used by them remain the exactly the same.
    I asked for a change in the way we report the bots a while ago, at least on PS4 because that's where I play ESO, but I'm not sure if any of the staff read it: we should be able to report per account instead of reporting per char.

    They care about bots as much as they care about bugs.

    no, a few bots are good for the game, cheaper mats etc!

    you are lost, if you think we have cheaper maps because of bots.
    tempting to use other word, but dont wana hurt your feelings...

    You couldn't hurt my feelings chief, I ignore people who don't have a clue!

    The greater the supply drives price down, no bots = less supply = higher price.

    Only a *** would argue this!

    No, it doesn't help

    ZOS can use bot accounts to fluff up the perceived game population, so of course they're not in a rush to get rid of them

    That, and potentially make a little extra cash on the side when the account is sold...

    *flashbacks to two previous mmo's played where some of the dev team did exactly that :# *

    In my personal experience of reporting bots on ESO... it's hard to say really. But deep down it really, really doesn't feel worthwhile... especially when you see the exact same names show up in different locations months down the line botting their asses off, only now their CP is in the hundreds, if not over 1000+.

    Not lots of bots like it used to be, but the couple that still sneak through don't hurt much.

    ZOS don't even do anything about em anymore so that's all the evidence you should need on how much it effects the game.

    I use *** and !!! as that's how I talk rl. There is absolutely nothing that you could say or do to hurt my feelings pal.
