Bottom Scanner on Velen Server

As Pahanda indicated, Adriania, players are able to use such addons which allow them to scan the available items on the Auction House and use that information to purchase items.

Beyond though if you feel someone is exhibiting suspicious behavior you are welcome to submit an in-game petition or write to wowgm@blizzard.com and it will be looked into. :)

Q u o t e:
Ah gotcha, I didn't realize leaving a toon afk and having it auto purchase items as they're listed was legal in game - who knew! I thought that fell under the category of botting, but if it doesn't, perhaps i'll have to rethink my AH methods!

Thanks much!

Though I do appreciate the subtle sarcasm that is not what I said at all.

As Pahanda indicated, Adriania, it isn't but also as indicated that isn't what the addon does. As I said if you believe someone is exhibiting suspicious behavior you'll want to submit an in-game petition or write to wowgm@blizzard.com.

Q u o t e:

You're welcome to report a player if you feel they are doing the latter, but there's really no visual evidence you would have to differentiate a player there (afk because they aren't moving) and a player not there (afk literally).

Indeed, it is a bad idea to assume what is happening based on an extremely limited point of view available to you. Our In-Game Support staff will look into such reports and work to verify if violations of our Terms of Use are taking place.
