So.. I keep noticing pre heavensward there's a bunch of new FC's sprouting up... but just happened to click on one and there are 16 members, all black mages, all with Garuda's Van equipped.. all with 27th Sun of the 1st Astral Moon, all with Azeyma the warden.... all Taru.. all male, and all with gibberish names.
What does one even do with this info? It can't possibly be a legit group of folks.
I don't know if mentioning the FC name is consider the same as mentioning a character name... but if you view the community wall for Gilgamesh, you'd see they formed at 8:49 a.m.
Gilgamesh Gil Seller FC?

There is one on Tonberry too. All the same things. You can see them afk in Eastern Thanalan on chocobos with the same barding (valentiones).
It's a bit suspicious to see characters that are like clones with a fc name riddled with grammatical errors. -

There's another one, 6/5/15 4:51 a.m.
5/17/15 11:02 p.m.
Another 5/17/15 10:14 a.m.
really just look at any community list and stop at any 3-4 letter undercase FC and you'll find a small group of like geared badly named black mages who are likely gilsellers. -

what could the bots have to benefit from being in an FC?

Airship perhaps?
If materials are MB tradable, having a workshop in an FC house would be a possible market target for them.

06-12-2015, 04:29 PMKisaiTenshiThat if you're sure everyone who is a bot selected 1AM, then I'm pretty sure there's at least 3000 bots on the server.Quote:

Botting is not ALL just about the economy, mate.
It's about the rules.
It's there in the terms and conditions, using 3rd party software is not permitted.
Call me a white knight or self-proclaimed knight of justice, but I seriously cannot deal with people who bot. -
06-12-2015, 06:00 PMCakekizyBut afaik botting itself is not against rules, just unattended botting.Quote:

A GM could login to Gilgamesh or Behemoth or Zalera or Hyperion and literally see these bots and rmt running, i mean teleporting around areas like Black Brush or any of the 1-20 zones or jsut walk through city and see them standing there spamming or jump to some towns and see in in /say. But they don't.
Until this issue has actual facts and not numbers just tossed onto a webpage i'll continue to believe that SE has a hand in it. I'm not saying there aren't gil sellers and i think it is in their best interest to get rid of them. What i'm saying is SE is competing with them for your sales. Why wouldn't i as a game maker charge you monthly and also say it's against my EULA for people to sell gold in game, while i do it and sympathize with your problem because i'm trying to get rid of my competition in game.
~Also to the above. Botting while teleporting through the ground is breaking the rules.

It seems that BLM is the job of choice for RMT. The solution is simple! Ban all BLMs!

That above post is like saying, "ban all miners"...when there are people who legitimately mine. There are also people who legitimately main BLM...who don't do what the BLM bot group does.
I'm not sure if that's sarcasm...because sarcasm doesn't translate well through text. -
06-13-2015, 10:38 PMSecretCrowdsIt doesn't take much logical reasoning to know he/she is just kidding. And no, he/she wasn't being sarcastic either.Quote:
