Bots in Low Level PVP

Alright. You have a couple options.

1. Do nothing. This is probably the one that will be done. It isn't great.

2. Note everyone who gets to 59 with just PVP. Check their gear score at the end. IP ban all the ones who had less than 1000 in their last game. They are all botters. This is pretty extreme, but it's pretty safe.

3. Bring back the kick option. So the botters never get party leader, give party leader to whoever has the highest gear score.

It shouldn't be this easy for this guy to cheat the system.

    You know something is wrong when reporting all the bots on your pvp team actually takes longer than the match.

    I am not in favor of the IP ban. I use broadband and this shares IP with a lot of users. Hence, these bots should be BANNED.
    I posted a similar post yesterday and it's gone. Admins must have deleted it. Why? probably they can't solve this.. ~_~
    here's a good start, better remove XP gains in PVP. Why gain XP anyway? I hate it when I can XP and move to the next PVP bracket! With that these abusers will not use PVP for leveling.

    I actually like the XP gain from PVP. It allows the user a variety of options (PWI quests, Foundry quests, or PVP) for the levelling process. I don't think removing XP is a good way to do it. We don't need to IP ban the people, sure. But the accounts should definitely be banned.

    I know that it sucks to no longer get gear to sell from the Dungeon Delve chest but it was truly overpowered.

    I'm curious as to the best way to report bots. After the match if I click on the persons name I don't get any options.
    Foundry - Fight Club? (nw-dluqbofu7)
    - JailBreak (in development)

    They must have metrics to see these characters and properly ban them.

    I dont agree with Bans though, they work for normal users not cheaters/exploiters. Especialy on a game they can easily make anew account and start over on.

    Can you please flag their accounts instead and make them only pair up with other similarly flagged players in pvp and pve through the match making system? This prevents the needless time and resource wasting of countenously banning exploiters that hasnt been working since Ultima Online in the 90's.

    If you just ban the accounts, they'll just keep making another account. That's why it's hard to deal with hackers in F2P games. IP ban should be the final solution. Don't play the game if you can't respect it enough to play fair (not directed toward you)
