I wouldn't mind a guild that only serves to remove/report bots, I would probably join, I do it anyway. I wouldn't get to hard up on vendors, I am sure that some guilds probably mass vend junk items/cards. I have around 8 phen cards, which would seem suspicious to vend but I enjoy overlook dungeon.

If the cms/gms officially recognized an anti-bot guild/league which would just send screen caps/names of obvious bot are obvious, it would solve a lot of problems. Plus having community resources, of say.. A member of the guild standing in each relevant city/map that you could pm, even if it was idle.

Hm, having a guild for it actually is a pretty good idea, but good point on the vending. It amazes me that some people can farm 30 cards of one kind on their own on a regular basis though. o.0

The recognition part would probably never happen but there is nothing stopping community members from organizing such a thing, though I can see some cases turning out to being a "witch hunt" type of situation and being false positives. For instance players who can't speak English well or are anti social, etc.

Solution:

1. Form an GM Bot Team (Doesnt matter if they are formed out of GM's and/ or Player)
2. Give them the /recall; /mute; /jail command
3. Teach them how to use MIRC (A chat program)
4. Say Hi to your newest Ingame Bot ,,GM-BOT". He is so smart and awsume he can post whatever people PM him into a MIRC Channel
5. Let the People in the GM-BOT MIRC Channel check the reports live Ingame.
6. World Domination
7. ???
8. Profit

#2 won't happen unless you apply to Gravity USA as a community manager or something and work in their office, no character with those powers is allowed to be logged in outside of the office. Also most of those commands require account names to execute so that information is something that no way in hell would be shared outside the office. Its just a slippery slope no matter how you look at it.

No need for IRC we use a Jabber server. But realistically if people were PMing them 555 hours of the day no work would get done outside of game. IRC does have its security issues as well, not a good platform for a company to be using especially if you have sensitive information. Not that it would happen but it COULD happen.

As for the additional GMs they would have to be hired as resources are hard to allocate as it is most days.
