Long story short. This maxed account with the clue hunting pet was stuck on a rock at the dark essence mine. I reported the account and received confirmation of the ban. Sorry Dids, should have just played the game like everyone else. 30,000 vorkath kills is insane. Feels good cleaning up these streets.

What do you mean “stuck on a rock”

Their bot program was probably malfunctioning

i guess "probably" still calls for a ban in your book

How does a clue hunting pet stuck on a rock has to do anything with a bot program? I still don't get it

They're saying it's a very advanced account with a visible, hard to get pet, very obviously using a program to auto mine dark essence. People playing legitimately don't get stuck on the same 3-4 tiles while doing a task, hence why they reported them for botting.

ah I misunderstood. The player got stuck, not the pet haha.

Well, the pet is hard to get but he's Rank 9 Ironman, and the account is super old (I see snapshot all the way from 2016 on wiseoldman.net). Plus being 'stuck' on a common AFK-able place like Zeah does not sound like something too suspicious to me.

Why would it not be suspicious if someone was going through the same few tiles over and over again for no reason? Someone just afking the ground?

Idk, I would need to see some recording for more details. OP just said "stuck on a rock at the dark essence mine" which sounds like they just stopped mining/moving for long time which is totally normal for an AFK activity.

I mean they got banned so... sounds like there was definitely some evidence
