So since the mods deleted my last thread I wont post names here.

So we met a guild whichs ranger and mesmer used interrupt bots.

I demand that Regina should watch this thread and Anet admins should ban the ranger and mesmer of the guild we played against.

The skills wich got interrupted at half was by the ranger, the ones at 3/4 was by the mesmer. (the match was 6:20 minutes only)
I am playing for much time in the top 30 and I know what can be done with a mesmer and what can not. Even Mitch could not do this (imo the best DOMINATION mesmer) but a rank 440 guild can? heh...

Yes we have used the report bot command during the match but i fear only pve admins are in gw so they wont know what we mean. This is why i post it here.

(i post this here cuz the gvg forum is dead)

Well you used the report function, which was the right thing to do. Complaining on here won't get you very far :/

But hey you never know!

Can't say I know who Mitch is to be honest :S

I'm not sure if we allow the posting of guide names as well, but I'll let a Riverside forum mod make that call.

I suggest sending an email directly to Gaile Gray (you'll need a wiki account with a confirmed email address for this).

Would be nice to see something happen. Acknowledgement even...

Not many run them but they're out there and they're bloody annoying to play vs.

Not helping the potential appeal of gw2.

I say, Ranger are better to interrupt, they say no...

I don't think screenshots alone can prove your point, for me at least. I need to see some actual vids plz. For all I know he could have just gotten some lucky interrupts which can happen, OR you made yourself to predictable as to when you were going to cast.

I like how you make the direct insinuation that anyone connected in anyway to PvE is stupid, or clueless about a game that is 80% PvE in content. Great way to call attention to your "problem".

Just my 2 cents: I'm a Mesmer. I have been a Mesmer in Guild Wars for nearly 5 years. And I can interrupt like that in PvE or PvP. It takes FOCUS. A focus so direct that it becomes tunnel vision leaving you nearly oblivious to everything else around you. And it takes alot of practice. Alot of practice. I like to practice on Hardmode caster Bosses. Noone casts spells faster, and yet I can interrupt them. Besides practice it takes a seriously mean connection and talent. If you have all of these things it can be done. And I've known Mesmers (not bots!) who are even better at it.

To me, this "proof" does not constitute proof at all.

Hitting interrupts at the exact same casting percentage is a little more than luck.

we have found the source of this bot, but i wont link it because it would get removed by the mods, and if you can interrupt 35+ skills exactly at the same casting percentage i will bow my head mr(s) patrisha macfarlane

and we are working on a video too (but youtube is slow

)

i think im right when i say that 80%of pve players dont bother with pvp --> they dont know how it works

Two or three shots at that timing, sure, that can be a player. 20+ with the screenshots combined looks like proof to me. Although video would be very helpful to prove it's all from one single match.

BTW:

Any mesmer that brags about this really needs to think about their playstyle.

ohh common he/she was interupted as the screen shots show and says the culprits were rangers and mesmers {AKA interupters}
How could you not be convinced? he/she has already said they are r50 monks, how would it even be possible for anyone on any class to interupt a r50 monk without cheating???

Some things never seem to change "if you beat me you must have cheated!!!"

but hey he/she has screen shots so it must be true

Son, the poster above you was being SARCASTIC!

EDIT: About the site url you sent me: I see a ranger bot. I didnt see a mesmer one. But I also don't read german.

The existance of bots does not prove their use in any one particular game or instance. The existance of nuclear weapons in the world doesn't prove that Luxemberg has one and is willing to use it.

If what you sent me contituted "proof" why did you send it PM? Why not expose it publically? It's not like you are protecting the public. As you said, you found the bot very easily on the interwebs. So can everyone else.

Wait... the fact thatyou know of this bot and it's free-to-download location contitutes "proof" that YOU also bot!

Well, you can "think" you are right all you want, but it is common knowledge that most mainly pve players "dabble" in pvp quite a bit and have a solid grasp of it. The reverse is also true. Making assumptions as to the ignorance of the people around you just because you lost a game and "DAMMITS NO ONES UNDERSTANDS MEH!" is not going to help your case any.

As to the other, I apologize if your obvious difficulty with the English language is presenting a challenge to my understanding you.

EDIT: LAWL!! Thanks Snowman, you made my day!

Nice joke patrisha. U are so close to be pro as me

This match was only a 7 min match, our monks and ele got nearly 50 interrupts. Mes and ranger didn't fail anything. This is IMPOSSIBLE, it doesn't matter what some pve players are saying, they used bots , u can watch the video soon, we will link it:P

A week or so ago, someone posted to Ventari's offering PvP botting 'services'. It was deleted, as it's against the EULA, but the fact remains that it does exist (and no, I can't tell you who it was, so don't bother asking). Whether or not the people named here are guilty, who knows. Yes, real people can and do hit these interrupts, but if people can cheat their way to champ points... well, we all know they will.

This is Riverside keli..I'm afraid you need to thicken your skin to be here.
If you made your report to the right places, and included your 'proof' of the bots...be glad!

The availability of third party cheats has been known for some time now. Unfortunately it will take Anet one year to acknowledge there is a problem, another year to implement a fix that's not a fix and another year to implement a fix that is kinda a fix. Sorry for being hopelessly cynical but we all know it's the truth. It's unfortunate to see this cheating crap, which has plagued online FPS games forever, creeping into GW. It will be an unending source of drama and crying if Anet doesn't figure out a way to stamp it out fast.

Now this is an intelligent post that I can totally get behind. You bet bots exist, and you bet people will try to use them if they think they can get away with it!

But so far in this case, there isn't enough proof presented to convince me it occured here.

Torin: You are just as bad as your "friend". I can't understand? I CAN'T UNDERSTAND??? Please, you really think that? I quit Warhammer Online and came back to Guild Wars full time for this very reason. Bots and hacks RUINED that game.

Assuming people are ignorant just because they disagree with you is not going to win you any supporters

Well if this is getting worse in GvG I would hate to see it merge into other PvP aspects of the game. Soon all PvP will be Bot vs Bot. Anet needed to squash this the moment it started. Good luck in getting this resolved!

Report it to ANet. You aren't going to find any solutions here. Send support an email explaining the situation, with the screenshots, and a link to the 'bot' you found.
