We appreciate that many of you wish to take an active role in reporting players that may be using third-party programs for illegitimate gains. As others have mentioned in this thread, however, such discussion would be better served by making sure your examples do not include the names or armory links of other players. Regardless of the intent, calling out other players is not permitted on the forums.
If you feel that another player is botting, you can report them by submitting an in-game ticket or by utilizing our Battle.net Support ticket form: https://us.battle.net/support/en/ticket/submit

That picture will now give me nightmares.
Sqtsquish Feb 13th 2012 10:19PM
My thoughts exactly

Holy crap, glad I saw this first thing in the morning. At least this gives me 15-16 hours to forget about it before I try to sleep again.

Zarhym. HE'S EVERYWHERE.
D4 Feb 13th 2012 10:39PM
He's everywhere you want to be.
He got there first and now he's staring out at you.
Where do you want to run today?
Skarn Feb 13th 2012 10:49PM
That picture immediately made me think of Hexenbiests from the tv show Grimm.

How can you kill that which is everything?
aspectofthedork Feb 13th 2012 11:26PM
Clearly we have to kill everything!
Scuutor Feb 14th 2012 12:20AM
Kill ALL TEH THINGS!!!!!
Cadychan Feb 13th 2012 11:23PM
Oh God
I opened the site and this is the first thing I see XD
This...is terrifying.

Next week, Zarhym's face pasted on shouty Deathwing's head.
Drakkenfyre Feb 13th 2012 11:49PM
Burn.
And kind of true. Zarhym's face is getting a bit old. Shame it can't be DSG.
Joystiq had the unveiling of the Dead Space: Extraction cover art, and ran a story on it. The cover shows a girl screaming. They started placing that image on every image they ran. Sometimes obvious, sometimes hidden, very well. It became a hilarious joke, and she got the name "Dead Space Girl". or DSG. Even today, they occasionally slip her into an image. Now if we had her, or maybe even hidden Zarhyms occasionally, it wouldn't be so bad.

Wasn't meant to be a burn, I'm feeling more like now is the time where we guess where this running gag can go next.
sultrysin Feb 13th 2012 11:45PM
I am a bitter and LOL.
Just remember if it wasn't for us botters the economy would be way over inflated. So be careful of what you wish for.
Twill Feb 14th 2012 12:01AM
I've always secretly wished botting worked so I could do fishing and archaeology, without having to DO FISHING AND ARCHAEOLOGY...
Alas. It's probably best that way.
yab Feb 14th 2012 12:30AM
...whatever. We'll keep reporting.
Killik Feb 14th 2012 6:08AM
@sultrysin Why would you say you're so bitter?
rdj18902 Feb 13th 2012 11:55PM
lol at sultrysin. I wouldnt need to buy the mats I could actually farm them myself with out botters
Noyou Feb 14th 2012 12:45AM
Actually botters keep the prices down by saturating the markets. It's when less botters are out and there is less supply, the costs go up. I am in no way supporting botters (and I farm 90% of my own mats) but that's the way it goes. People complain all the time there is no cloth on the AH for them to power level first aid or tailoring. I say, go run some dungeons or go out in the world and kill some stuff. All that good material and juicy rep just begging to be plucked.
cromahr Feb 14th 2012 9:15AM
LOL the WOW iron man challenge indeed IS a challenge, leveling to 85 without specialization, talents, stat enhance gear etc.
I wonder whether doing it only by exploring/gathering would work. Even though you'd have a hard time dodging mobs when doing that, it would be really boring though...
Too bad the old "kill boars" tactic from the South Park episode wouldnt work =)
