I still think that an Nvidia shadowplay-like system would help a ton with bot reports. Afaik it doesn't take a ton of PC resources, so it's not like no one would be able to play if it was in the game. And it would be the most direct and factual report possible.
You see someone who's acting like a bot? Watch him for even 30 secs and hit "report". This will send a supercompressed video to the server and GMs can watch it on their end and see if the report is even worth checking the logs for. I'd imagine that fully responding to a report would take longer than the potential 30s-1m of just watching a video and knowing for sure if the reported player looks like a bot.
This kind of system would also put way more pressure on the false reporters. If GMs get direct proof of false reports - they have more rights to punish the reporter.
