We all pay the same amount...

to play this game, so why cant us PS3 & PS4 users have the same option as PC users to use Bots ?

It's plainly obvious that Square Enix do nothing when bots are reported because they are still out there in exactly the same place doing exactly the same run every day.

it's about time we had a level playing field (and please don't say ventures, it's not the same) and a script written for us. Why are we being penalised for following the rules whilst those who constantly break them are being rewarded with millions of Gil .

I'm confused, so you want SE to allow PS players to break their own ToA, Simply because PC players do it? The amount of bots increasing won't help anyone in the end.

What I am asking for is a level playing field. We can use Macros because they are legit, SE should provide us with the same tools PC users use. PC users use 3rd party software and are not punished, therefore similar software should be made available to us PS3 & PS4 users (through mog station perhaps). A sensible cap on gathering, i.e. 1000 shards a week, 1000 lumps of ore, etc etc, would see a sharp reduction in bot usage and RMT.

Yes, I agree. Let's have equal cheating across all platforms QQ

Please don't just blindly assume all PC users are botting. I'm a PC user and I never have and never will use a bot.

This is like one of those arguments saying "If he robs a banks, I and everyone else should do it too!"

Hmm, promoting 3rd party cheating tools, wonder if that's reportable.

We all don't pay the same price, Legacy players pays less than you and get more :P

but then it wouldn't be cheating because it would be sanctioned, look, I'm not saying that Bots should be used for everything but we all know how mundane mining shards is.
Here's a comparison from real life, how many of you wash your own clothes by hand ? you don't you use a washing machine, wanna make a smoothie ? rather than sit there for an hour mashing up fruit you stick it in a blender for a few seconds. The list is endless.
Why should certain players have an unfair advantage ? that is even covered in the TOA but it's only lip service.

I'm not assuming all PC players use BOTS, but the ones that are don't get punished. And I'm certainly not advertising 3rd party software.

OP your logic makes no sense. Nice try at a troll thread.

Once a month or so lodestone has a new post of actions taken against RMT and other illicit activities (botting).

correction, once a month they print figures of alleged punishment, you still see the same old same old.
Those figures you see are from RMT Spammers who just keep coming back.
