Stormblood killed bots?

Noticed I visit in old ARR cities. No see bot's spams in chat

Stormblood killed bots? :P Or bots will again back? I hope not.

was the same with the launch of HW. Took about 4 weeks and they caught up. Enjoy the time without them while it lasts :)

Not killed completely. I saw one spamming sites on Lich this morning.

I wish they could figure out what makes them tick and keep making miniscule modifications to the game's coding to throw them off on a regular basis.

It depends on your server. You're on Odin, that server is full. They can't make new chars there. On smaller servers, there are still some of them.

Yup. Mateus is still pretty open, so they've got no problem spamming business as usual.

They need to remove /say from trial accounts. They already can't use shout, yell or tell.

I see more bots in Frontlines than legit players.

Some quests require use of /say, and I believe some of the early ones at that. They'd have to change the way quests work if they took /say away from them. Plus, how would genuine new players communicate?

Then how will people decide that they want to stay after they reach 35?

wow.. PVP has bots too? O_O Crazy!

Not on Coeurl. They're still there.

Your joking right? stormblood brought alot of bots back but they are in DF lvling up to become farm bots or something else.

I know for a fact that there are quite a few blackmage and bard script bots queing through dutyfinder making dps ques that much more annoying. I've ran into several already but its more annoying to report them than it is to just kick them. There is no right click report for DF. Its very obvious when they are script botting. They move in a very odd way and usually use skills sporadically unless its the blm script bot.

Be nice to have a right click report suspicious activity for DF bot reporting but I doubt that would ever happen.

I reported one when I was in Limsa as well.

God the tedious reporting is the most painful part of this game. The gaming population is se most powerful cheating detection but it's not worth 10 minutes per report.

On my server they don't tend to stick around long now that we have the report function. It has also seemed to reduce the frequency that you run into them in the cities. Of course the best thing that could happen is if people stop buying from gil sellers but I know that is not going to happen.

They are waiting in queue, I guess

Plenty of RMT say bots on Jenova.

I mean, they should just remove trial accounts entirely at that point. Just because a function is being abused by bots, it doesn't mean you should take that function away from prospective players.

I just finished leveling my botanist recently. I'll probably start on miner soon, so no Stormblood didn't kill botanist.
