    Players have tried giving detailed reports for years on bot sightings and LITERALLY NOTHING GETS DONE with reported bots being recognized in the open to this day so kindly stay out of the discussions if you're just gonna show up to make sarcastic remarks to shill for the billionaire company.

    Im really not, just looking for the plausibility of alt or duplicate accounts for bots. They're like cockroaches, its very hard to get rid of their infestation even when you report one.

    Just in case you're not aware, to be a shill you need to be paid by a company/individual or have an actual close personal relationship with them. Just, pointing that out since a lot of people having been using the word incorrectly lately.

    Second, RMT bots should absolutely be banned but how would you suggest it be done? They can easily make multiple accounts without batting an eyelash and bypass IP bans with VPNs or getting a new IP address all together which really does not take much effort. How do you actually cut off the problem?

    Genuine question cause I'm actually curious if anyone knows a real solution.

    Those guys that have been Glitter Bombing scammers have been doing a decent job in at least shutting down their operations for a time. So far nothing permanant but it does bring a smile to my face seeing them freak out. So maybe something along those lines? Just a dedicated group who legit hack and find their operations base and sends them naughty gifts?

    When you deal with human beings, never count on logic or consistency.

    Fluid like water. Smooth like silk. Pepperoni like pizza.

    Hi I've seen and reported them too way back in the day and nothing has happened, so what am I supposed to do? Just keep reporting them every single time I see them just so SE can ignore yet another report? Seems like a waste of my time really!
