This crap needs to be handled. The impact of multiboxing will have done a fraction of the damage to the economy that this will do in the long term.

I am quite disappointed if wow streamer pretend to not have known how bad boomkin botting has become in BFA.
Actiblizz won't do anything since they give don't a shit. Never have and I have doubts they actually do banwaves even anymore.
Working customer support really has made me support genocides.
With a graphic like this, who with an IQ above room temp would click on this?
i reported the same bots for nearly 2 weeks they probably still sitting in arden right now. seems blizz is in a pretty heavy sleep mode on all things

Quite frankly, merely going after Bots isn't the right strategy in the longterm, you merely attack the suppliers of gold, not the people that buy / use it.
If they put a stopper on boosting (which are fueled by goldselling by a decent degree) and go more aggresively after people that magically have hundreds of thousands or even millions of gold appear onto their account, it would at least diminish its impact.
These bots (and by extension, goldselling) exists because a demand for gold exists, with the increased popularity of boosting (and what has happened to Gallywix boosting) one shouldn't handwave aside that the implication boosting profit off goldselling sites.
The WoW Token isn't a solution here, the WoW Token merely provides a "legal" alternative but if the demand for gold keeps getting bigger, people aren't going to pay hundreds of [real money] when they could easily buy millions of gold easily from a goldseller, without any restriction and at a far lower price.
Especially when word on the street is that Blizzard rarely takes action against people that buy gold.
I reported someone that was clearly botting in Classic, got a mail like a month afterwards that against said account was "taken action".
I know it's the one as i only reported that very character in that timeframe.
So, at least by personal experience, they are slow to act but they do act against it.

With the new anti multiboxing rules, it should be easy to crack down on bots without lengthy investigations.
I am impressed by their incompetence.
I've never wanted to give someone a shower more than him. I feel bad for commenting as it makes the dipshit even more famous.

He's still famous ? I mean after the two weeks of popularity of Classic, this guy still exist ?
At least he's having fun in his life, which is more than can be said for most people on this forum and 99% of the people who posted in this thread before me.
The Void. A force of infinite hunger. Its whispers have broken the will of dragons... and lured even the titans' own children into madness. Sages and scholars fear the Void. But we understand a truth they do not. That the Void is a power to be harnessed... to be bent by a will strong enough to command it. The Void has shaped us... changed us. But you will become its master. Wield the shadows as a weapon to save our world... and defend the Alliance!
As if we need that manchild and his baby stans to tell us how bad botting is. BFA says hello.

Everything else is secondary even the gameplay itself is secondary to building your character, its the kind of stuff you think about when you are at work or school and couldnt wait to go home to play WoW or Diablo 2. We have all done it." ~Into, 2016
