to start withm here is a nice intro thread i found:
http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=585222&highlight=report+bots+game&page=2

i read this and other threads and never saw clearly what is it the officials at PWi need to see to make the botting call and subsequent ban.

i hassle several bots often , especially during 2x, but enough is enough. one bot has ruined the colored glue market, others seem to have infinite dq to sell etc.

i can make screen shots(SS) but what event needs to be portrayed? i can steal a kill and snap a pic of them looking at my coins until they time out. but you can't easily show the botlike consistent pattern with a SS. at this time i cannot make video captures 8(

    I had a few nice, long replies typed out and then my internet crashed, so...you get the burning corpse of my reply.

    1. Easy way: PM them several times accusing them of botting WHILE getting images of them killing. Bots either don't reply or have a repeated auto response that incriminates them. Screenie that, it should be enough.

    2. Stupidly Entertaining Way: Screenie them at the scene of the botting, then "harass" the bot by dropping 1 coin piles and leading them to a really far away town, screenie again. Non-bots get pissed off after the first few 1 coin piles and will go back to killing, where bots will follow you to momagnon and back on 1 coin piles.

    Dunno if the GMs even come on to take care of bots anymore.
