E-sport titles are using these countermeasures, there should be no viable reason to argue FFXI would not benefit from doing the same.
While knockbacks are annoying, to suggest that people quit games over it is ridiculous. Basically every MMO has these, some more than others, and ive never heard of people quititng them over it.
You sounds like mulboxing players are filling the servers ....
Like if there is 1000 players on a server. There is in reality less than 500 real player due to multiboxing.....
SE should remove all 3 characters restrictions acces and allow TRUSTS and FELLOW in every content. That way classic players can enjoy all content like multiboxing players.
Do you also break your leg when everyone else breaks theirs? Those games are next-level stupid as are their users. People who actually pay for their computers and care for them do not tolerate malware-infested rootkits. Ever.
In fact, it seems that the real problem is with you Asurans. You want all the benefits of a mega server with none of its cons. "Mercing" and such is an inevitability when you're on ANY game's largest server. Here on Sylph, we don't really have any such problems, and I'd wager the same is true for nearly every other server too (obviously the case for Shiva based on other users' inputs).
And also optimize trust AI, at least in the case of healers and tanks.

Most posts opposed to ethics reforms are missing the environment. Either due to being uninformed, not doing proper evaluation, or grandstanding to protect illicit advantages they are partaking in themselves.
Interactions that do not break ToS are free from criticism.
The criticism is directed at ToS violations that are being utilized to attain absurd advantages that are transferred through player interactions to corrupt the community status quo.
They also corrupt the intent of the game developers at Square-Enix utilizing these ToS violations.
We are discussing ToS violations where users are employing prohibited tools to fabricate gil, cheat character progression objectives, or charge gil for access to advantages attained by ToS violation.
The most obvious of these include but are not limited to:
Bots utilized for AFK command inputs.
Bots utilized for the sale of illegitimate gains in equipment, materials, EXP, capacity points.
Hacks utilized to dupliacte items.
Hacks utilized to corrupt synthesis (crafting).
Scripts utilized to pollute /yell with billboard advertisements, most of which are offering gains derived from the utilization of ToS violations.
Laundering of gil attained through the use of prohibited activity to perceived 'clean' accounts.
RMT suppliers, retailers and customers.
Exploitation of prohibited conduct to hire achievement gains for character progression.
Nefarious greed begets more nefarious greed. Corruption begets further corruption.
The proliferation of which is and has been massively detrimental to the traditional and intended game play.

Is that Starcade?
I'm about as fanatically anti-cheating as someone can get, and even I don't support the use of cheat detection on machines. It opens a door to some very shady stuff. We shouldn't encourage the trend for manufacturers to take away our control of our own devices.
We just need more boots on the ground. I know they don't have many staff, but it's becoming a really serious problem. Like I said on the digest thread, people are having to choose between supporting cheaters (and becoming guilty by association), or cutting themselves off from massive parts of the game. For some people that's an obvious choice, whichever way they choose, but the fact that they have to make that choice is really not acceptable. What do I spend my gil on if the entire HQ gear market is cut off from me?
Oh and less knockbacks, obviously.
