This error is very common among the last couple revisions on 705 till now.
If the player char doesn't face the NPC while turning in or receiving quest, HB will force CTM on the NPC a thousand times a minute.
A simple work around is to manually turn your character to face the NPC, and everything will proceed as per normal.
Seems kinda weird though. But I've successfully recreated the problem every time and resolved it every time too, the manual way.
Here are some scenarios how it happens:
1. When the char dismounts from mount and overshot the NPC resulting in back facing the NPC.
2. When CTM waypoint is set such that you are not facing the NPC when you reached the POI.
3. Speedboosts the char is having when you reached or overshot the waypoint and your char didn't turn around to face the NPC.
Another issue is, when you manually right click while not facing the NPC, it won't work either. I was thinking it may detect the quest frame and continue to turn in quests, but NO, it don't work this way. It will spam "Tried to complete quest 5 times with no sucess" and then spam CTM on the NPC again. But once you face turn it, it immediately completes quest and move on as if nothing happened.
Maybe a bug or something. Not a big issue, but it practically renders questing AFK botting useless. You may have a bad streak of luck and land on the wrong side of the NPC.
The worst thing is, there is nothing logged in the log.
But I will still upload it for you, because I know you will ask for it. The log I'm posting together with screenshots is exactly when it happened and resolved.
