Eureka Bots are generating 280m gil a day with platinum pieces

As long as they don't say mean things to people in duty roulette or use a quality of life mod, they're fine though! :)

I need to marry a bot. Sorry bf.

I never see people talking about this for some reason. Literally the first result you see when you google 'ffxiv crafting guide' is a site advertising RMT and no one bats an eye. No community callouts or 'hey don't go to this website, they are breaking the TOS publicly'.

The loot for Eureka needs an overhaul. And no the fates aren't filled out with the people trying for ring or emote or other item. They show up when window is open and sit on top off spawn. Doing Eureka for a few weeks the people in there at all times of the day spawning fates are there for progression or weapons. Put the damn stuff on the cash store. The only reason to keep them in those zones is if bots cause instability for the servers in other ways. So it is better they are in Eureka. I doubt that though.



It really is a shame that SE can't afford employees. The game could use some solid cleaning from lvl 1 content all the way to current expansion.

(Genuine question.... I know you are quite passionate about the matter)

Every time ive been in there theres been maybe 1 or 2 bots, but JP players tend to mass report them constantly so they dont really bother here now.

Huge difference from what materia was.. its sad really..

Just popped in to check, 6 players in a hour old instance, 2 are a definate bot, the rest are just helping a newbie.
The sad thing is both bots have completed eureka weapons.. do either hacked accounts or just people that bot and dont care because they know SQE wont ban them

Hmmm, I wonder the level of English Fluency the STF have. If they are working on the Japanese bots, but leave ours untouched - can they even read our tickets?

I tried to give Eureka Pyros a visit on Mana DC and surprisingly there's no bots... Are the botters bored already to farm at JP server...?

I think we've established they have no intention of dealing with bots destroying the game's economy.

I dont know if that question is bait or not.

But they do heavily moderate JP servers more than any other, so it would make sense that the STF may only deal with inquiries in Japanese.

given the prolific bot population, and the almost complete lack of real bot enforcement anywhere but the Japanese servers, I have never believed the 4 person STF was anywhere near large enough to be anything more than a glorified tea circle for any server group not located in Japan
