Other games have done this, and it just increases the amount of l33t code anti-filter anti-echelon type of cruft thrown into the tell, and does nothing to reduce it.

What is happening is that (I speculate, but can only prove it by how quickly the bots disappear, only to re-appear again):
a. They are creating new accounts with stolen/prepaid cards
b. spamming and deleting using new characters every few minutes
c. possibly cycling which servers they use them on to evade detection.

In a different game, the bots just keep taking up all free player capacity (eg Exalibur is never available for example), when they lock account creation spam disappears entirely as the bots get banned, but once creation is available, huge uptick in spam.

It would help immensely to just be able to right-click "report abuse" and just throw a quick tickbox and have the game client send a screenshot.
