Zenimax needs to add a ingame captcha to combat bots

kemp.garretub17_ESO1
As we all know when you go inside public dungeons you will often times see 1-10 players farming the boss since its impossible to tell whether these players are bots or not from a in-game admin perspective (yes they can see them only just farming the boss but there are legitimate players who do things like this making a captcha a more valid solution)

I don't know if other games have used this before but either way it would make botting much more difficult and easier to catch while also doing little to interrupt legitimate players and better yet keeping dungeons bot free


(what I mean is before anyone is confused that anyone performing a action x consecutive times to the point of which it would appear that they are botting a captcha should appear verifying that they are human)

    No wonder why players were farming. Just to give gold to make fricken money. idiotic people I hope Zenimax will catch them and ban them. Breaking the tos has a heavy consequences.

    Not a good idea because some people legitimately spam one button, and having something pop up would be immersion breaking.

    Im not reffering to pressing one button repeatidly im reffering to farming one mob over and over and over again in places like a public dungeon

    To me that includes spamming the same button over and over.
