Hey folks,

Anywhere to specifically report botting. Was just in a match and a player spent most of it twitching back and forth, obviously testing out an aimbot.

name was [redacted]

Send an email to MWO Support (support@mwomercs.com) detailing:

- Date/Time/Time Zone
- Map
- Mech/s Used
- Offending Player/s

Attach screenshots and/or videos to support the report.

*Btw, I'd edit out the player's name. There's a policy against naming and shaming on the forums.

Horus,

Go back and edit your post, take the player name out. PGI has policies against name and shame and if said players is in fact cheating he will be shamed by PGI.

Sounds more like a pilot who tries to enter the parking lot with his mech.

I really have to know, beyond a program that lets you auto launch into a match, as in launches-sits connected lives/dies-launches again, how can you even tell if there is a bot?

What if I see something that looks suspicious, or if I suspect another player of cheating?

Report it through an e-mail to moderation@mwomercs.com. Provide us with the name of the user in question and a summary of your concerns. Screenshots and video will always be helpful.

I remember; he/she also improved the bot over time. At first he was just there, then he chatted some phrase I forget now....and just before he was banned/gone, he fired once too.

I know you named the perp, but whom ever [user] was, you can't name them.
