Should the ToS be updated to allow botting?

Picture the aetheryte as being the center of a map. Regardless of where they zone in, whether it be NW, NE or somewhere else, they will always move on foot to SW of the aetheryte before mounting up and flying away.

Give up, OP. I've seen the same bots everyday since I moved to Gilgamesh, a year and a half ago.

Someone say my name?

Seriously though, botting seems to defeat the purpose of a means to pass the time...

well, they are pretty easy to spot, idk why nothing is done

It's these two.
GM's have no way to detect bots so they have to observe the player before determining if they are using a bot or just grinding/harvesting quietly (there are oddballs who do that, I guess...).
SE generally takes care of botters and RMTs in large groups one-or-twice-maybe-three-times a month.

I reaaaaally don't understand why people would even look at questioning something like this...

I apologise in advance for being insensitive but I just want to make a clear point. This line of questioning goes on the same line of "Should we just allow bullying to happen?" There are people getting victimized each and every day so should we just accept that this is the norm? Again I apologise for the nature of the my example but you really do need to see the ignorance in the OP's question itself.

OP, you are doing nothing but making yourself look terrible.
This idea is horrible and has no merit.
I recommend quitting while you still can.

Unless of course you are trying to troll us with these threads.
In that case, I commend you. You've already elicited 9 pages from us.

Let's see if we can get to 30 pages like some other nonsense threads!

I'd rather we didn't.

How can someone look at that and think "You know, they prolly aren't bots..." The lalafells are clones. No real player/FC does that.
