Could you give us an estimate on the time a bot gets banned after someone correctly reports it?

Cause it seems like the bots only get banned when you report them during a bot busting session and rarely when you use the Report Abuse function.

How much pending reports are there at the moment?

This is great news! Sorry for my recent rants on these forums regarding the Bots in OSR, just was getting rather frustrating, to say the least.

Thank you for the confirmation that you are indeed keeping up the fight against the bot infestation in OSR.

*sprays OSR with BOTBEGONE spray* :) .


It's understandable that you'd be frustrated, we were the same. Sitting here making a game work and watching that hard work be undermined. Now we can fight back, with your help, we will ;)

By the way would it be possible to add a
Report
function to private messages. I have been getting a huge amount of private messages from ad bots recently.

For some reason I am unable to ignore, add or answer any private messages I get. I try to add the ad bot to ignore list, so I can then report, but all I get is the
System Busy
. I have to physically get a pen and paper and write their name down to be able to report ad bots in private message lol.

I currently have to play OSR with private message off, as I'm unable to add people to respond to their message, or answer friends messages :| .

Awesome update. Except my brother got banned about five days ago for botting... and hes never botted.. please look into who you guys are banning, hes appealed and emailed and still heard nothing back. If I were him I would be very upset with the lack of customer service.
