I just gave up on bots. SE clearly doesn't care enough so why should I?
Sure they ban bots, but the damage they've caused is already done by then.

Hmm, I usually sell my maps because they're just too much trouble to run given the rewards. If bots are buying them, I'll just delete or vendor them instead.
It can only be bots at certain times of the day. A person can not run a map every minute. That alone should be a flag for review. Some person has just bought every map less then 1 min apart. It does keep the price up for people that just want to sell. It also lowers the price of mats because they seem to flood the market. It is garbage for players legitimately trying to earn gil through maps. I wonder if the stagering amount of gil dropped in map dungeons if they even need mats. If they are getting to last floor they must be getting at least 50k times 8. But number is probably way higher.
Se policy has been for 14 has always been let the game take damage from rmt and they will act after the fact. Nothing has changed since day one. It seems a little late to think it would change now. At least in 11 a gm would pop by and check on bots and do something actively about them. New world has some funny videos of people dealing with their bot infestation.
As a huge fan of treasure maps and someone that runs them every week with my FC, seeing the bots buy up all the maps really sucks :(
