Ban the botters for life

[leoakre]

Hi again!!


Idk about other players trying hard to protect their spots on the LB but one thing I do know.... It's completely unfair of sts to make us compete against the players who indulge in botting! There are many of us who wouldn't dream to compromise our integrity while aiming for top spots on the lb but it seems we are the minority and nothing has been done to correct this very controversial yet morally simple issue of cheating by sts!!

If there are any other honest pvers out there who actually take pride in earning every kill with their fingers, or thumbs, please give a shout out here!!!

Right now I am standing at the entrance of Kraag Tombs 2 and watching the unresponsive toon of a Leaderboard player go in and out every few seconds making 15 kills per round...I believe that's the count! Now, this kind of irreprehensible behavior has gone on long enough in our game!!

Instead of focusing on all the new and inventive ways to make platinum purchases higher, maybe sts should focus on many age-old problems that already exist in the game .... Problems previous moderators have promised solutions towards but never delivered!

Let's here it for the integrity of this great game!!

Thanks,

Msleo

I agree. There really needs to be someone at STS who can investigate these things. Perhaps a special email address where you can send any bottling accusations to and they can then investigate the player. I'm sure if they were to investigate, they could easily tell who is botting and who is not.

I often times run the same dungeon over and over again, but my movement patterns would be slightly different on each run. If the movement patterns are identical on multiple runs, that means botting.

Agreed!!

Plus, I often go in and out of tombs fast too but always in party with one of my own crafting alts or in solo party...and I answer every pm sent to me unless I've fallen asleep!!

It should be a simple thing for sts to spot the botters in pve and dummy farmers in pvp after all these seasons of doing nothing !!

In my opinion, the right thing is for them to get banned. Considering that its been a couple weeks after a fairly large public outcry over a certain video brimming with proof, and no action has been taken, i can assume that the devs dont really care. It's injustice. Completely unfair and it toys with the integrity of the game.

I agree... Cheating is cheating. Botting, farming plat, dummy farming, sharing/selling accounts are all a banable offense, but due to lack of bans on players botting and dummy farming,players see it as a free pass to bott or dummy farm (up until recently on the dummy farming, one did see repercussions of his/her illegal actions) As long as a lb exisits with top players of simple exploitable pvp & pve kills there will be dummy farmers & botters.

In closing, I am impressed with STSs recent actions on stopping a dummy farmer!

I didn't see too much of that video but what I did witness was actionable yet no action has been taken!!

It's great to make the elite maps so they cannot be botted but what about pves in normal tombs or pvp kills against actual opponents fighting back instead of being on a repetitive program or in a combative room where there is an actual fight??

Is sts going to allow botters to rule our leader boards, or will players actually have to answer to their less than respectable behavior?!

That has been the question for at least 6 seasons!!!

Does this player does dummy farm on pvp ? He's name tells it .

I've been posting the same thing before that I don't get why leaderboarders' accounts are not being consistently checked by STS, especially I wish they'd clean off cheaters from leaderboards before granting banners!

sadly, kill stats is always prone to bot/dummy, and to be sure, botting case have to be solved case by case, and watching hundred thousands of players is not easy.

stopping giving rewards for these stats can also help, imo.

This.

Botting is an unfortunate fact of life with today's gaming platforms. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MMORPG_bots

It is tough, if not impossible, to actively police. We do take action on particularly egregious cases (like earlier this week), but we think the solution unfortunately may be to remove the leaderboards entirely.

So a screenshot of players with 60.000 kills and only 5 deaths isnt enough to ban?
Or getting 20k kills in a few hours isnt enough to ban?
Well.

Then what about PvP dummy farming?

Again, exceedingly hard to moderate, not just for us but for all game companies. We can remove that leaderboard as well.
