I am looking for a official response to breaking bots with trades.

Reporting seems to be the main route when trying to get rid of bots.

But spamming trades will break the script.

Is this a bannable offense?

I have also seen some other tricks that will prevent trades from going through, but one of the main ways i can tell if they are botting is the speed hack they are using.

Never uses sprint and can almost out run a mount.

Mostly these bots are farming shards/crystals at the moment.

Please let me know if i should stop now, they are ruining the game IMHO.
