Discussion: How Can We Handle Botting Better?

[Jijifli]

So let's make this a discussion please, due to the amount of... dare I say, lack of action taken.

How can we improve the action taken against bots? I wish to hear people's opinions, ideas, and discussions over this.

I'll give a start. I think a system where if you report someone for cheating, and punishment is acted onto them, you should get an alert that your actions led to someone breaking the rules to receive punishment. Doesn't have to say who, or what level, but some form of communication that my report DOES help, would be a huge step in supporting it. How it is right now, specially when I see the same bot running around for over a year, it makes it difficult to even want to try. Incentive helps. Don't even have to reward me, just say I did something if the report was true.
