Being Reported on by a known bot

<Excalibur> ****** *** (A Certain player) used explicit hacking methods during PvP as a WAR. Has been for a while. Anyone who's PvPed on the the Primal data center knows who he is and how he is a bot.

Long story short, I was aggressive in my language towards him on one of our matches as he was on our team.. and he reported me. I received an email from a GM stating my account has been flagged with a perm warning.

This is insanity. Not only did we (me and I know of at least TWO others) report him for illegal activity, nothing gets done to him but I get a warning for going off on him for BOTTING.

This may be a small rant, but come on SE. This is just stupidly wrong.

Can't name and shame others here, or you will face being banned. It sucks, only thing you can do is keep reporting him through official channels. :(.

I've stopped reporting. I say the F word and I get a ban, but botters get off free even after weeks of reports from many people. Not worth the effort anymore.

tbf I'd rather play with bots than rude people

I don't disagree with you. I was frustrated with him botting.
I knew he was a bot and so I said what I said because of that.

Think about it: the botter is probably running a dozen or so active subscriptions, you are only paying for one.

Pretty much sums it up.

I sorry that you got struck by the unfair money train in the face.

you can be banned to for using bad language and bots seem to go free.

Pretty much.. Also.. isn't there a profanity filter? How does one report if they manually take that filter off? Sounds silly.

How is he a bot if he is sitting there and responded to your language and reported you? Just curious.
