Agree, also tokens are only worth game time or battlenet balance. Battlenet balance cannot be turned into RL cash as far as I’m aware.

Agreed :slight_smile:

I just saw one bot reusing monel-hardened stirrups: https://www.wowhead.com/item=152813/monel-hardened-stirrups

I guess that character is a blacksmith, so he isn’t going to stop botting for the next 8 hours.

Well he was using these anyway. Here is the botter: https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-gb/character/stormreaver/Våltsu

Naming and shaming isn’t permitted. I suggest you edit that bit out.

You have no proof that this person is a bot or just a regular player and you should report them rather than naming them on the forums. Blizzard can investigate and when they next wield the ban hammer if someone is using a bot programme they will be punished.

I have a plenty of proof that this character is a bot. Someone who claims otherwise should show the proof he isn’t. 2 weeks of inspecting this behavior and i’m sure.

And no, i’m not editing the post. If it is against the regulations or it is not permitted. Remove the thread. I have come to the point where I just don’t care a single bit.

This bot should have been removed already but it is still there.

I am not a Moderator, I am an MVP. We are just regular posters who have some knowledge of the game and are generally polite. I was just giving you a heads up.

If you have proof then follow the link about reporting cheating and present your proof.

Someone multi boxing and using stirrups to avoid being dismounted isn’t proof of anything.

It was not my intention to point out that he’s a bot because he uses stirrups.

I have reported this dude few weeks ago, and I keep reporting him everyday i see him here. he’s here 24/7 and during all this time, i’m 110% that this is not a human player. Sure he has gotten the equipment for botting because he actually needs it. These mobs will eat him if he didn’t have those items. The path he keeps running gets him killed easily with lower gear.

It is so easy to say and claim that this player might not be a bot because you haven’t seen what I have.

The very reason why I started this thread is the hope that blizz actually does something. There is a very high chance that they do not even read this topic. But if they remove the topic they just do what they do in-game which is nothing.

So if that was a violation of forum policies to post armory link here and blizz deletes the topic then they can go ahead.

And yes, thank you for your concern. Unfortunately blizz is the only one who can do something for the bot problem.

Back in MoP when the bots flew (without mounts) through the air from node to node when we couldn’t fly it was a bit of a giveaway that they were bots.

All you can do is report in game or via the info in that link I posted. I know it’s frustrating. They never take action at an individual but rather go after a specific bot program(s). They do the bans in waves.

They will not delete a whole topic, but they will probably remove the information from your post and you may get a forum vacation because you wont respect the rules.

I never saw the flying bots in pandaria.

Also no problem in your post regarding my forum vacation. I had a voluntary forum vacation for 13 years. After posting this one day. I can make another 13 years easily.

I just want them to take actions instead of grasping things that do not matter.

This bot problem is really frustrating and it can be a deal breaker.
