UPDATED to mark certain problems as either fixed or not fixed
As the announcement reads, the devs will be taking 2 kinds of data into consideration when adjusting the bots that fill empty pvp lobbies and are featured in private play. These 2 types of data are:
The aim of this thread is to aid the remaining developers in their efforts. (If one of the devs is reading this, thank you for making my favorite game ).
I beg everyone who replies to explain their opinions / observations in great detail, so it will be more useful. Some things, of course, can't really be described in great detail, like bots being able to snipe you from nearly anywhere on the map.
Please read the "How does this thread work?" section and check if the problem you observed is already on the list before commenting. Thank you!

How does this thread work?
If you find a problem that isn't on the list and hasn't been fixed by the developers yet, you can describe it via reply and I will add it to the list.
Thank you for participating

Good stuff on making this post!
Aimbot should have tweaking, do not allow them to do things that players cannot, but perhaps all Al should have a small passive damage or health buff to make up for lack of character upgrades they can use.
In Private Play, Al should gain even more Aimbot then they do now in Crazy!, but in easier modes reduce it instead.

One thing they should add that bots in GW2 have, is that bots on the team that lack players should summon AI (bot/pots for defender in TT and some other modes, weeds/brown coats for the attacker in TT).

Oh hey, the thread got pinned to the top .
Now we have a place to collect all of the feedback.
Thank you for sharing your threads. I will add the feedback from there to here in the next couple of days. I remember @stukapooka making a few such threads a while back as well, but I can't find them. I will also add them once I find them.
I will, of course, credit everyone who participates in the bot discussion now or has in the past. I will add the usernames, but not mention everyone. I will edit the thread a lot, and I don't want everyone to get an email every time I edit the thread.

Apart from tweaking, we need AI to be less suicidal. I mean, if they can acknowledge our position, they should be able to cover from us and reconsider their life choices.
