How to kill an AFK farmer?

There's been a toon (120ish Warrior) AFK farming gold on the pirate island in Morrigan for a few days now. I've been trying to lure mobs to him, but he must be a tank build. Any suggestions?

You can get a warrior to taunt the mob he is attacking, to make him move off his farming spot. Or if he has been logged in like this nonstop for days, you can also report him using an in game support ticket. OTM keeps logs and can investigate if he is using a bot or not.

Reporting him would probably be most effective. He's gonna make a lot of gold without giving OTM any money for plat. That will upset them and make them act quickly.

Reporting does work. During the birthday event there was a guy that camped a black hat spawn 24x7 never moving. I reported him and soon after I didn't see him there again.

But you also need to be careful when reporting people because they are not always botting. If they are on all day and through the night never moving though, it is pretty likely they are botting.
I don't think it is a bot... There are many campers on our world, none of which I suspect are bots. Our world is pretty chaotic about presents, which sell for 1k each. Lots of people camp them here, and people bring out their other devices to camp multiple spawns. I know one person who has seven devices and made seven lvl 1 characters to camp presents all over the place.
Since presents spawn every 15 (or 20) minutes, all a camper has to do is set a timer for 15(20) minutes and make sure the character doesn't go afk. At the 1 minute countdown all they need to do is get ready to snatch it before someone else!
Solarus, the person in crookback is NOT a botter, and is not entirely inactive. I have had long discussions with him: he camps all things of value while studying/working, and sells the drops to gain income. I have lots of respect for him, for he is lvl 98 and still uses woven sorcerous. He camps all sorts of mobs worth camping (including the gold mob), and is quite smart about it. Don't report him, he is smart, not a botter. Many people camp while at work in an office...

I remember the days were your toon never logged out even if you closed the app. Those were the days dead people everywhere.

Definitely a bot, buffs himself on a timer. He was in our lower clan, and he was booted instantly and reported to OTM, and has kept it up for a couple of days since.

how do you know if its a bot just because he stands in the same spot all day :3
If a person is seriously on 24/7 then you can say its a bot, if you have doubts talk to the person first before pointing fingers at them.

Thts a great idea, I'd rather just have the guy be mad a heck when he checks again not have him gone forever
