4,000 Guild Wars Accounts Banned for Botting

The old saying “Cheaters Never Win” is in full effect over at Guild Wars.

The official Guild Wars website reports that over 4,000 accounts were banned during the past week for cheating and botting.

The developers had this to say about the beat down:

“In order to maintain a solid game economy, we constantly monitor the game for the use of cheats and exploits. Over the course of the last week, we banned more than 4,000 accounts of players using “bot” programs intended to mine the game for gold and items. The use of such programs is strictly against our User Agreement, and their use can have a negative effect on the game’s economy and on all players who play the game legitimately. We will remain diligent on the matter of bot use, and will continue to take action against those accounts involved in such use.”
 
That’s dropping the hammer on ’em! Go Guild Wars developers!
