Looking For Group Bots

l ConnorPepin l · Jul 20, 2022

Whenever you make a lfg post in any game with a matter of seconds these spam accounts and bots selling services through lfg requests are interested in your post and you can’t block or report all of them,because there are so many it’s absolutely ridiculous how Xbox isn’t competent enough to realize,”hey even though all these people are blocking and reporting these accounts, I don’t think they are bots” like cmon it’s absolutely [mod removed] how people are getting away with this.

Its not hard to limit players from posting or receiving lfgs but doing this would cause additional problems such as players complaining about paying for the xbox gold service and be blocked from it due to their limited amount of hours on the game, this would stop the ability of new players receiving help from others also, but it shouldn't be hard to place a system to detect these bots and shut them down (similar to anti-cheat). Examples of doing this could be by blocking and shutting down accounts who have interested on numerous post at a instant or (did this) and use the same amount of words or lines too. Other factors of this could be considered such as gamer score and hours. If the account was detected by this anti-system and followed the some detections such as what I said then the account should be terminated and the xbox live nonrefundable to force people to think the bot advertising isn't worth it anymore. Ofcourse this goes against what I said about new players but if this system was built smoothly and properly then new players shouldn't have a problem. Another thing could be changing lfgs completely! Personally, I think that a new lfgs system should be when I post i get to write out responses so example for this could be for R6 im looking for players to play with and I've created like four responses other players can choose from when interesting such as I'm new, I'm experienced, I'm just here to have fun and vibe, and im here to play serious and thats all interested players will get to choose from. This would completely remove the ability of players creating bot accounts that will interest and say what they want. This would give players control better over what exactly they are looking for in some way, and im saying some way ofcourse because players can lie and choose one of these responses and do completely the opposite, but atleast that removes the problem of bots and then the community and microsoft can get together again and tackle the next set of problems that this new lfgs system brings.

I think this problem should be solved fast, I am paying for your service xbox live gold to experience this? This looking for group feature should be limited to those who actually own the game or has an amount of hours spent in it. Like today four out four request for my post were just bots.

The bots now are spamming peoples personal info including home addresses

I've report atleast 100 in the past week. I report 10-15 per lfg post I make. Microsoft needs to put there foot down and fix this issue

Mr XBOX this is really really bad. Looking for group is now dead. Users will get hounded with spam messages in regards to sex with underage kids. Why you guys have not updated the systems in which these bugs are removed is beyond me. This has been going on for FAR too long now sort it out!!!!

Your quick to take money from us for subscriptions etc but fail to allow the spaces in which we game to be safe!!!!

SORT IT OUT.

CONSOLE ERA IS DYING!
