I remember back in the days, encounters happened almost weekly/monthly. You could ask them for a WoW joke or even have a small convo. They were literally ingame monitoring stuff and always available. The closest I got the past 3-5 years was opening a ticket that got answered after 31 days....

If only blizzard hired someone to do this just one person per server and this would be a huge blow to the bots

Sorry, Blizz is too busy designing the next store mount to actually police their game.

In the real word Blizzard would have to pay someone $8 an hour to do this and Bobby would have one less Margarita aboard one of his mega yacht's and that's just not fair is it.

I was never a GM in an official game, but I've been a GM on large population private servers. And other then organizing events, and investigating bugs/exploits/reports, my main role was doing just this. Going invisible and stalking suspicious activity, and swiftly banning anyone who breaks the rules. The servers were kept clean, and it without a doubt made the experience better for everyone as a whole. It was a very entertaining task as well. Simply 3 mods let loose with this objective could make a serious impact, in just a single day, even on a server with say 20k active players. MMO's should employ more people to do just this. I'm sure many would jump at that opportunity, even at a minimum wage. Hell; I'm sure there are hundreds of people who would do it completely free.

You just "banned" more people in 3 minutes than blizzard bans in a whole month

You know it's parody when you see a GM manually banning someone.

At this point there are so many bots that blizzard needs to hire Thanos as a GM

I remember finding GM island during OG burning crusade. I had died in the water from some mobs, and just out of shear curiosity, I thought I wonder if I can just run my ghost across the ocean to the other continent. (this was before you still got fatigue even while dead) in the horizon as I was running, I saw an island. So eager to actually see it while alive, I ran to my corpse and did like a 5min "corpse dragging" (repeatedly dying) to finally get to this island. Nothing was on it. Just empty huts. So i was just exploring around it and thought it was really neat. Then... a GM spawned. I thought I was so screwed, that I just did something horribly wrong. We ended up chatting for awhile, told him (or her idk) how I got there, how I found it. And the GM then told me this was "GM island" and no player was actually suppose to ever get here. I was like omg I had no idea I thought this was an easter egg. The GM was super cool though, summoned all sorts of fun mobs, made my character like 100x her normal size. They even teleported my brother to join us in the fun. After like 20 mins of just total shenanigans, the GM told us it was time to go and that by me finding and coming to the island was an exploit, and that they were going to let it slide. But that I can never return, nor tell anyone else where it was and how to get there. Was the coolest experience I had with a GM.

Blizzard will add this video to the GM training manual, for the handful of remaining GMs.

back when GMS used to be people... I remember once in Wrath meeting a GM and asking him ingame questions(i was a newbie :P) and he sat down with me and explained it with as much detail as possible... now you won't even have a chance to meet them as they don't exist anymore

This is easily the most ridiculous video you have ever made. So farfetched. Implying that blizzard even has a single in game GM. Ridiculous.

Wow, you did more work than the whole team could ever do.

When TBC opened I've found textures collision problems ( falling through) near Black Temple. Reported it. After few minutes GM answered, asked where, checked it in invis mode( I believe, cause I've stayed there). Thanked me. And few days later this bug was fixed. Another encounter was at Karazhan entrance. Where live GM transmorphed our raid into leprognomes . That was one of the greatest screenshots we've made. Official WoW I would love and remember.

Didnt blizzard replace like 99% of gm's with Bots.. Kinda funny

On most of the private servers that I've played on, the GM's would respond to word of botters every single day. (Nostalrius, Kronos, Dalaran-WoW, Sunwell, Northcraft, Emerald Dream, etc)

not to mention all the bots farming primals, making it not worth real humans time to farm them.

Excellent. Keep up the good work. I definitely appreciate the personal investigation

the fact that you need to state that this is a parody says a lot

This channel is on the come up quick. 30k subs by the end of the year.

Great video sir. I just subscribed.

Fantastic job GM

He's taking the flamecap and running away! He's running away!

Subscribed. This was amazing

That was therapeutic to watch

When I create an mmo Im going to use this video as an example for our staff to follow. Unironically lmao And the effort you put in to these videos makes me smile, lmao.

I love the sarcastic tone XD

This would be possible if Blizzard hadn't fired all their GMs and replaced them with bots. What we have now is bots on both sides. Simulation of future dystopia.

They're so out of touch with their own game it's ridiculous

we desperatly NEED like this on retail

I remember when I was young and made it into hyjal in wrath getting that sleep debuff and being transported to the white room prison under gm island I about shit myself I logged out so quick thinking it'd save me lol

i played pservers for 15 years vanilla ... and after 2years now I must say Pservers did better job as service for free then blizzard are doing ... thets just sad !

can you tell me how to dress your gear the drees the id of them please and how you put them in sap sleep ?

your voice and way you speak makes me laugh so hard thanks for the vid

Unrealistic, there were only 4 rogues in slave pens.

Nice video !

The sad part is; There'd probably be hundreds and thousands of volunteers doing this work for free.

I would totally become a GM and monitor what's going on along with giving positive influence to the game like GM's would back in the day

just did /who - no one bots on my server. out of 19 i found 0 rogues. a variety of classes with plenty of what could be tanks and healers. is this only eu?

Back then I was doing Roleplay with GMs or we just talked over telephone for an hour about stuff. Good old time.

I gave up on wow in legion and left for good in BfA. Is this actually how bots operate? Botting wasn't bad enough yet for me to really pay attention to it so I just assumed they only camped high value farming spots around azeroth

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

All those people defending boosts...

glad to see Gamemaster doing his job and this 4 times in a row.

very cool...thx for doing ur part in keeping out the bots XD

what people dont seem to get is that bots still pay subscriptions. so its in blizzards own interest to let them be for as long as possible

Bro you're doing gods work, and by god I mean GM

1:47 you can clearly hear the startscreens background music from the launcher when it gets banned :D Good one m8.

How long did it take you to get this server running

I see lvl 60 rogues on me serever all the time in SP entrance never realized what they doing lol

GM I'm hunter who always come to SP take some stone and maybe if some box unlocked I take it to .. it that allowed ??

The good will would gen I'd content like this existed for real

Here before your channel blows up and you eventually end up on an episode of fishing with crendor

this video makes me feel like im living in a dystopian future. is this the darkest timeline?

more content like this please

So how do the rogues go flying around in the slave pens ?

getting rid of in-game GMs is one of the reasons Blizz is failing, private servers are more secure than official ones, which says it all

This literally is happening since late Cataclysm until now in the Botanica and no bans are going out

I don't believe there are still in-game GMs I'm wow.

I recall having my character bug out and it froze during late Cataclysm or MoP, around that time. I tried restarting and logging out a couple times to no avail so I I opened a ticket and a GM responded eventually and after some back-and-forth it ended up fixed. Then we had a chat about the game and they even told me a joke! I don't recall the exact joke but it was some Murloc gibberish stuff. I really wish they didn't remove GMs because it made it feel like players had a direct connection to the actual owners of the game. It might seem silly to hire people to just play the game and roam around the world, but it makes such a big difference to players honestly.

That WTF at 2:49 got me!

is this a private server? or the actual game retail wow?

I remember seeing gm in ashran once

I did know you GM as well good on you

was that video actually recorded in live servers or is that private server?

How did he get into his instance?

Wow... can you imagine? in a perfect world I guess

See if i saw this sort of thing going on more often I would feel alot better or more at peace at least with the game. iv reported several bots confirmed by screenshots and still nothing but seeing this at least gives me hope lol

If i was a GM i would 24/7 do this lol

I don’t think there even are any in game gm’s any more…? Now the ticket system is automated and most of the responses from any “gm” seem like bots also! Lol

How did he film that ?

Back in early cata I was giving gold to noobs and helping people out with question from say bubbles. All of a sudden a GM popped up in front of me. He's was saying you the type of player we strive for. He made me the size of a weekly raid boss. And gave me instant flying without mounts for 1 hour. He also was putting raid bosses in front of me. As a DK he put linch King in front of me, let him kill me, only to LOL me. He hit the Res and gave me 100 instant repair hammers. That repaired my hole set at once.

Ah, a competent GM Variant

How do they bots fly like that? Is it a glitch or just straight up hacking?

This guy sounds like a blizzard gm slow as hell

i expected so little.... but you where able to do even less. bravo

Your doing the good lord's work

WHAT IF, a GM was following us most of the time leveling, farming etc, and we didn't have a clue?

Blizzard GM investigates… haha good one!!

how did you do this video? Own server? And did you set up a bot just for that video? xD Or are you a GM of a privat server`?

and how could i become a GM in wow to take care of those problems?

I doubt Blizzard pays for GMs at this point.

im wonder if they can see the gm

"Thus problem makes the company and my team look incredibly bad!" Hur hur, how about that lawsuit...!

This gm just ruined the swimming contest

What server is this? and is there no auto detect system? how are they fly hacking? should be instant ban on hacks

i prefer pservers because of alot of reasons

its literally that easy, they just need to hire one guy to check suspicious players

Can someone explain to me why there are so many bots in SP anyway? they're 60 what they actually doing there?

What is that server?

that fact that this bots aint getting banned, rmt'ers / sellers dont really get banned, while i get banned for 7 days for "unfair behavior in battlegrounds" while even saying they probably delete the pvp gear i farmed to for that reason, the only thing i did was going afk when like my 1/3 or 1/2 team goes afk to cuz we fight a pug and have no chance or were clearly losing (it was the time when there was 1min q and ppl just wanted to play the next bg if losing) they way blizzard does shit made me quit for good. i remeben also in knew a bot in classic who farmed r1-r13 without even moving once, at least i didnt see him moving once, he was standing 24/7 in alterac valley where you could Q for av. probably reported him like 100 times or so cuz i was farming alot of av too, whole server knew he was botting and reported him like crazy nothing ever happend. meanwhile i get banned for going afk with my team its so fucking dumb. fuck blizzard.

My dad's name on all mmo's has been Nadabot for the last 15 years because in Guild Wars they accused him of botting saying the way he was farming was "not humanly possible".

"somehow"

My name back in MoP was PugsareThugs and one day a WOW gm must've saw my name and sent me mail with a pug pet and a really long xhibit meme. It's sad to hear that they don't come around like that anymore :(

I've got more fingers than in game GMs and I'm missing 2.

Retail is full, and I mean full of bots .. especially with SL I have never seen that amount of bots walking sideways in rocket speed gathering resources. Long gone I left and I don't plan to go back unless they fix their shit at least on game side

I no joke just got a shadowlands ad after the vid. I ....... I just can't -_-

Time to go tweet this on all over blizzards pages and then retweet it til I’m banned for promoting banning bots

could really use your help on gehennas...
