Bots: Identifying a growing blight on the community and what needs to change.

[Kirika-]

One major problem is trying to report non-RMT bots. There is no easy way to do this. I see them all the time and just shrug them off because it takes way to long to try and report them.

There needs to be another report option added called "Cheating/Botting" with the "RMT" and you should be able to get to it from right clicking on your targeted HP bar.

^This....

It is very troublesome to actually help SE by reporting bots/cheats.
I can understand that they may want to cut down on false reports or miss-use of the reporting system by adding some hoops, but the current process makes it nearly impossible to provide accurate info due to generally what is observed to be reported happens so fast that by the time you get to the point of being able to create a proper report, you have lost/forgot some of the info or just find it too much trouble to make a report.
The bad guys win.

If a similar reporting option to the current RMT report is done for Cheating/Botting, and even so far as to add a few other common types of reports (Harassment, Language, Naming Violations, etc....), would make for a much more streamlined way for honest players to report bad things.
This process can be enhanced to automatically take a "system-log-snap-shot" of the targeted reportee to add to the report containing most all relevant data of the target during the time frame of the report, so the reporter doesn't have to fill out lines of Times/Areas/What Observed/Names Involved/Actions Observed/Chat Involved..etc... all on the back-end, much like other MMORPG titles already do.
That snap shot can then be used to validate the report for further action or dismiss it in case of an accidentally report or some player just using the report system to harass others (the latter meaning they get the strike/ban)
