    Blacklist, report,don't buy their stuff, spread the message in game. That's all you can do about bots.

    EDIT:
    Forgot to specify, "spreading the message". I mean really location of botters and what they're known to sell, not necessarily character name; was in a hurry when I typed that out as usual. names. Thanks KageTokage for pointing that out

    If you do decide to do this, just make sure you're extremely discreet about it, because "name-shaming" is still an offense in-game and the inability for GMs to investigate reports for cheating coupled with their "innocent until proven guilty" stance by default favors the botters over their detractors.

    I've also found most of the botters I've actually interacted with to be extremely petty and the sort who'd swiftly file reports if they had adequate evidence to get someone punished, too.
