Final Fantasy XIV has a serious cheating problem.

Hopefully this is educational for the people who thinks cheating is mild in FF14.

Please do not bother commenting anything about "oh but it's not that bad" or "did you not see all the Lodestone notices".

Go watch all this channel's videos.

I know how deep this problem goes better than you do, trust me.

if you cheat on a 3rd party site like fflogs, can you get banned ingame?

Yes, because using that software requires injecting into the game itself. You're hacking not just the parser but also the game.

Yup bots running rampart, meanwhile chat bubbles and QoL mods are the issue... Then again bots don't tend to stream and rat themselves out.

I've long had a suspicion you just coyppaste threads off of reddit hence the odd variation of blatant shitposts and actual legitimate posts but now I know for certain:

...But that aside. Squeenix will continue to do nothing because bots pay a sub. Sad but it's really the truth. Unless unless players quit over this they'll just keep ignoring and making money off the bot's subs.

Sorry, didn't know it was a crime to share useful/good posts I see on Reddit.

bot accounts also bring real money if they arent free trial. so its a profit on se's side as well to keep them around.

I still find it a touch baffling that these RMT companies can seriously be making enough money to warrant having 30+ paid accounts going when their methods aren't exactly raking in the gil by the millions; moreso when the ones relying on crafting/scrip farming are having to compete with each other.

It makes me question if they're resorting to some manner of fraudulent "free" method of getting game time that will not result in the accounts they're actually using to farm getting purged.

Considering the fact the original threads were deleted and the time difference, I'd wager he is the poster in both cases.

You guys are getting more and more adept at coming up with lunatic conspiracy theories.
