LOL, the most obvious farming guild ever

I’d say it’s not a naming-and shaming if it’s legit, then it’s just severe devotion.
If it’s not legit, then it’s surely OK to share here.
I just wanted to get some opinions on what in detail might be going on there.
I saw some of those chars entering Grim Batol, and they seemed to be controlled individually, not stacked like a multibox.
I find the guild name most amusingly blatant, almost too much so to assume it’s something illegitimate.

BTW, funny thing: Even if I wanted to poke Blizzard’s nose at that guild to take a closer look, I can’t, because the ingame report tool doesn’t allow that anymore. You need to see and target a player and right-click and report from there.
That’s not really encouraging people to actively keep an eye out. It’s like Blizzard doesn’t want to know.

UPDATE: It is definitely bots. I observed their movement patterns and there is actually no way you could manually steer them on those identical patterns. It is very methodical and robotic, and not multibox.

There was a thread about this guild 2 weeks.
There is 3 guilds with same name all with DH chars in them .
1 on english speaking realms
1 on german speaking realms
1 on french speaking realms.
Me and Grainne and the OP watched them for 3 days and reported them nothing done in lastest ban wave by the looks of it .

You even posted in the thread so you knew of this 2 weeks ago .

I just don’t understand how hasn’t something been done about them when they so obviously have cheated on 3 separate realms I suspect bribery is involved for them not to get banned because of the obvious nature of their botting.

I mean over 200+ DH with multi reports and still going and a ban wave this week just lost for words.

I am In loss for words aswel the only explanation I have right now is they are using a really good botting illegal tool that even Blizz can’t detect or they payed them off to stay or we could all be angry at the multiboxer but I doubt it because you can’t do that with a multiboxer.

I see well I haven’t noticed anything out of the ordinary on AD but it’s still a creepy thought that gold farming bots operate on the realm I play makes me shiver :cold_face:.

You things are bad when innocent players are getting banned by angry folks they have encountered in M+ or LFR/ competing with Auction House/ Twitch Streamer fans mass-reporting, but bots are still running free and evade Bot Ban Waves.

Thing is i know full well a few people have been watching the guilds and reporting them and now they have opened up 3 more on 3 big servers in 2 weeks it is sad makes me lose faith in blizzard especially when they ban and or remove peoples trust levels on forum due to a person multi flagging because they dont like another players views.

Is it just me, or is the weirdest thing (from looking at those guild rosters) the fact that, in among the army of DHs, there are some random priests? Like, why priests? And why have none of the Superboys or Greatboys levelled past 1? They’re being held back by their botting guildies… :rofl:

I guess Blizzard trusts honest farmer more than talking posters in forums. :crazy_face:

I think they must be the bank chars? That or boost spammers.

Quickest and easiet class and race to get to SW and set up guilds . Go to a random server and press create char on alliance . First thing that pops up is human priest male.

Ah, that makes a lot of sense!

They always have banwaves though… it will take time then it will be dealt with.

they’re too Busy monitoring and chasing me :)) so they dont have time to punish actual offenders.
