    The bots never use tanks because they aren't needed when they can avoid all melee damage and targeted ranged attacks by floating out of bounds. I assume the WHMs are there to keep them alive for the few attacks that can reach them, such as AoEs that ignore LoS.

    But yeah. They could easily thwart them in a number of ways, such as making a boss reset if it's unable to attack its target for a prolonged period of time, making out of bounds areas killzones, putting on LoS on floors, or forcing a standard party composition for the first completion of a dungeon. Or they could just assign a single GM to purging them on a daily basis, because it's not like you can't just do a player search and pick them all out just from their names.

    On the bright side, the way healer bots function brought me to idea to put myself on follow to tank at beginning of instance since that is where tanks rush in like headless chickens awaiting for death (or testing the healer! Pft!) however it is also hard to 'proof' whether it is bots when individuals... while it can be obvious like I experienced... it could also be actual players. New report system, hopefully suffice.
