    Why aren't the bots banned yet?

    50% of my games have a bot in them, and like 20% of them have 2 bots. I have reported them several times for cheating. What does it take for SE to do something?

    And don't give me that "they ban" in batches thing (it's probably just a warning and they get off scot free). It's been weeks already. Get a GM to at least look at some of the reports. Suspend them from pvp for a week or something. At least look at the goddam names that have more than 10 reports.

    At least the warrior bots from before did some damage. The drg bot does nothing but wake up sleeps and break binds. You know who I'm talking about.

    I once reported someone for harassment and I got a response in just a few hours. Maybe I can reword it and report for harassment for disrupting the game or something. Cause obviously whoever is managing the cheating reports is doing jack for pvp.

    Orrrrr.....they can take those reports, figure out how the bots exploit the system, write code to patch the hole, test it, then deploy it with the next patch.

    But hey, who am I kidding? That'd make sense. HANG EM HIGH!!!!

    You know this bot has been on across multiple patches right? Also if they really wanted to do that, they could just download the bots and examine them directly.

    But even if they are doing that, this strategy only works for things like bot miners or tell spammers because they don't interfere with gameplay as much and they can be avoided. The pvp bots degrade the gameplay way more and require much faster response.

    I met a bot in Chaos datacenter, it's a dragoon Roe, no communication, no strat

    Just target the enemy healer and attack him, using only the ability Heavy trust and Jabalin.

    I reported him as harrassment and cheating. Only GM response they can't do anything.

    I completely agree because everyone knows it's the DRG Yui Kotegawa from Adamantoise and they've been doing it for months now and survived through multiple waves of bot banning so it's just baffling to see this bot still running today and with new gear to boot.

    We are used to the bot than we adapt our strat to him.

    Our bot is pigenard teb, full pvp lvl 70 from cerberus. He attacks the healer, so me as marauder and other dps focus the caster-melee to kill him.

    Sometimes is fine and others not.

    you need to report them via the website, not ingame. Although by the time I figured that out, the Primal datacenter's resident bot had already got his r38 gear and had started playing for real.

    Yup, I know the DRG & the BRD that does it; I simply apologize to the team, and leave: rather I get nothing then supplying them with the maximum amount of points and take my 30 min debuff. I know your frustration; reported them over 30 times in the past mo/

    In our datacenter there's atleast 2 players doing it non stop. I reported the one in our server. I hope he gets banned.
