Massive amount of Bots in BGS

Getting worse everyday, now counting up to 4 bots on each side some games. (pretty bad in a 10man wsg or 15man ab). There not hard to find they are programmed to do the same route everytime and do the same things over and over and sometimes they have level 1 gear.

It really ruins the bgs. Late night is really bad. I would report them but the average queue time for a gm isn't hours or days but sometimes weeks......



[inappropriate acronym removed] is happening to this game?

Q u o t e:

Tired that its usually a week + before i can even talk to a GM.

Did you try that on a different account, Qpacx? I was only able to find one petition reporting a possible bot and that petition was closed by you after an hour and 16 minutes.
Q u o t e:

Remember back in the day when you would get to talk to a GM instantly or maybe a few hours.

How did we go from a few hours to a few weeks?


Queue times fluctuate based on the number of petitions that are submitted. They are at a couple of days currently, not a few weeks.

If you find someone you believe is using a third party program to automate their game play please submit an in-game petition with the name and realm of the character. You may also write to [email protected] instead.

yeah i have a question about this too, most of the bots i encountered weren't on my side or server, are they still reportable?


Absolutely, Lights. Just include the name and realm of the character in your petition.
