The majority of new characters are bots

Theres plenty more on the list.

I have seen them teleport around and glitch out and moving in groups, theres so many it makes me feel like I am playing a F2P MMO.

It never used to be like this.

I don't know. I've seen bots like that for years.

Recently, a lot less, but thats because im on Gilgamesh.

It has actually always been like this, at least on some servers. They will stand at Northern Thanalan in groups of 4 and teleport away in parties. SE are aware though, the best thing you can do is report them, although they definitely need an easier report system for the amount of bots there currently is.

surprised that bots are now archers instead of thm :confused:

It's SO hard to implement a right click, report, botting.... >.>

That was just one section.

So the list was 200, about 170 were bots. It was a search for new players.


Its dumb a sub based MMO cant do checking for cheating like this, I just watched one teleport to each enemy farming.

I checked and the popularity is:

Arch, THM, to a much lesser degree PUG.

In one pic here you can see the demographics of new characters 1-5. 80% are bots! shocking. http://imgur.com/a/gorgG

Funny I am seeing the same on Tonberry. LV35-45 BLMs in duty finder with keymash names.

Stop buying gil from RMT services then.

We have a ton of new leafs on Siren and they're not bots.
