Here we are, busting our butts off! While hackers and botters rule Eorzea, It's sickening.
What's the point of even trying when the next botter/hacker will do what you've done a million times faster. SE said they had a STF to combat the RMT, Yet it's still going strong. Botting, Still going strong. With the new server exploits it's just icing on the cake.
I wanted to love this game, In fact i still do, but it's leaving a bitter taste in my mouth very quickly! I've seen bugs/botters in other games, but not at this amount. Never have i seen a MMO where you edit things client side and the server accept it. This is Rookie level...
Please fix this game. Sooner, than later.

Why does it bother you?

Yes, others have made this exact point.

Somehow these people who create bots are apparently from extremely poor countries and are doing this to get some food. Yet they have the ability to hack a game and get money from it.
Yeah it sounds like BS, these are just horrible people who don't care about what's ethical and just want money no matter what.
And SE has demonstrated their incapability of getting rid of them, it's just pathetic. -

And so with the years of experience you must have please enlighten SE about how to deal with it rather than crying everything sucks.
Everything sucks = trolling. But Everything sucks but you could do xxx, yyy, zzz to fix it = something SE can use (I however wouldn't go into details about stopping RMT on the forums though) -

The problem is that they are monopolizing the resources and the market. By dominating the market they now have a control over the resources and everything else. They control the price of the goods. The only thing they wouldn't be able to control is the price of set things like your teleport and chocobo costs.
Or they teleport and take the mobs you need to farm, which isn't as big of a deal since the game has dungeons and tomes for the most part.
I'm no sherlock and I was able to figure it out, and here I thought we hadn't hit rock bottom in the IQ department.... -

I told my lead programmer about this server side "exploit" and he started laughing... then almost started crying. Your coding practices are so poor that you made my lead programmer cry.
Looks like the deleted the other thread... now we wait and see as 3-4 more pop up. -
10-12-2013, 07:44 AMReiterpallaschIt's hard to get the motivation to do things in game when stuff like this is still going on.Quote:

Square will fix it, I have faith. I feel in the very near future this button is getting pushed:

10-12-2013, 07:57 AMviionIt personally doesnt bother me because I'm not affected by it, however if I was trying to make money of say Shards, you can say goodbye, by the time you collect 1000 to put up, RMT have botted about 100,000 and you have zero chance to make money, this, with every item gathered. Pretty tough sometimes for early income.Quote:

OP reminds me of my younger brother who would get the same dessert as I but in a different dish which would result in him crying and asking for what I had instead. People are trying to make money off of everything in life. Deal with it or don't.

How does the fact someone else can get anything easier than you effect YOU in any way?
I mean if someone can cheat and just get everything in the game then you should not play? I tell ya what then. You better stop doing anything because real life is full of things just like that.
People born rich, they get everything they want. Meanwhile you have to earn it. Well you better quit your job then and go cry in a corner or you can just ignore these people and take pride in what YOU do and ignore other people. -
10-12-2013, 08:20 AMdavidbowiewhy does it not bother you should be the question.Quote:

This is your third thread on the subject...starting to wonder if your just trying to stir the pot. Quit making threads dude.
-
10-12-2013, 08:33 AMSixmpRunning about on a forum making threads like this doesn't mean someone cares more. It just means they want to cry about it.Quote:

If any of you dont thinks this effects you, well, you are very very mistaken
Or you buy gil -

Personally I haven't seen any botters but still get spammed from every website with pm's and shouts in every city. I don't know who is going to spend 350 dollars to by 108K gil, but apparently there are people out there. Let alone 30 for a million... Please, I'd rather craft and farm.
-
10-12-2013, 09:38 AMFreakiieA quick glance at the marketboard says enough usually. Just look at the shards, generally you see like 10k+ shards all from the same retainer at bargain prices. No legit player would invest that much time to farm shards with that kind of return to be honest.Quote:
