Okay, this will probably come off as a rant, but I'm tired of seeing these bots.

I continuously see the same bots, farming the same areas many weeks after reporting them (and continue to report them every week or so).

Not being able to ban a majority of the advertising bots I understand. They create a new character, send hundreds of tells, then log off to create another new character. Each character isn't online causing a commotion for a very long time, and one account can create an infinite amount of these level 1 characters.

But why are these lvl 50 farming bots allowed to exist for so long after so many supposed ban waves?

For the farm bot to even get to 50, they bot level (and these are pretty obvious as well). I've seen them in low level areas, somehow underground to avoid being targeted easily, constantly killing enemies non-stop. They even teleport around while underground, getting within range of the next far-away enemy fractions of a second after killing the previous one.

They don't even die. I've experimented with these bots, and with proper timing of the "invite to trade" to shut them down (after moving around the surface to find the closest spot to them to start the trade), the monster kills them. Or at least it should, they conveniently disappear right before going to 0 health, only to reappear seconds later (underground again, and farming).

How does SE miss these signs of a bot farming it's way to 50, then spending a month farming one location without moving for days at a time, while being reported several times?
