Botting has gotten out of control!

So a mod recently deleted my thread in the Bugs section where I alerted them that bots were taking over the Enchantment market. The thread has been up for about a week but got deleted for no reason either today or yesterday. It seems like Cryptic and/or their moderators want to sweep this major problem under the rug and pretend like it's not happening across every server right now. They also locked the thread that was talking about bots in PvP that has been plaguing Neverwinter since early May.

Stacks of 99 Rank 5 and 6 enchants are being put on the AH everyday for the past week or two by the same botters and nothing has been done about it. No bans, no fix, nothing. Botters are having a field day with the AH right now, making tens, if not hundreds of millions of AD. The mod that locked the other thread about botting claims we should report them to Cryptic and that they'll be banned. Guess what? I've reported all of them multiple times, yet they're still around, same accounts... still selling stacks of 99 enchants everyday.

I wonder if Cryptic even cares that their game has been taken over by bots and exploiters or if they actually want there to be botters and exploiters so that enchantments and T2/Ancient gear are more affordable for their casual customers that buy Zen to convert to AD. As of now, the Castle Never exploit and botting has been going on for 2 weeks straight, with no bans or fixes.

I reported it too, in game, in forums, nothing has changed, nothing has happened, and the stacks of 99 enchants showed up BEFORE the 2 x enchant weekend....its BS

I noticed too on mindflayer AH there were several shimerweave scraps on stack 999s like 5 or 6 from the same person with a handle made like the gold sellers bots, all random characters, there were mith ores and exotic pelts too. I dont know were they get so many resources.

Yup, because the nodes that they bot also contain crafting mats, they also sell those items in stacks of 999.

THis is cryptic people why havnt you learned yet. It takes about 1 - 3months for them to figure stuff out. They silence you if you have a valid question about something thats wrong with the game or thier customer support.

My thread about instructing people how to complain to the BBB also was closed.

You can complain all you want to the BBB. It does nothing. People file complaints to them all the time and nothing happens to the companies that get reported.

Um, I've had incredible results every time I've filed a complaint with the BBB.

Not sure what you would file against them, though.
