rmt are getting nasty

So the RMT on Mysidia I have seen are picking up lately but tonight one actually mpk'd us when he was trying to get key from the sentry. If we linked it and it wasnt red he would voke it, if we did red it he would mpk us. Tried to send a GM call but have no idea if you even can. I filled out the form and could not send

I have reported these players til Im blue in the face but they keep going at it.

YOU NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS SE!!!!!!

Us REAL players cannot enjoy the game if we have an RMT mpking us every time we are trying to exp

yeah i'm seeing a lot more RMT around just following each other. which is funny cause when this game was F2P, RMT was almost non existent, now they're all over the place.

Complaining about MPK is so FFXI.

Leash the extra mobs maybe?

Also I bet if you can get this thread to twenty pages you'll get a dev response telling you to go to another website and report said offender.

How are you reporting them if you can't make GM calls? You just fill out the report. Press enter, then press to send the call. It's terribly easy.

How do you know they are RMT? they could be just a bunch of douches, but there are not any rules against douches.

mpking is the part of the game

So... are they building a stash for 2.0 or ...?
i mean ... who would actually NEED to buy gil that is currently playing?
Some new guy isn't enough to make operations worthwhile.
Brain not understand.

I can fill out the form online just fine but when I try the ingame GM call the send button is blurred out and no matter what I do it wont send.

The only problem is that the online forms do 0 good. I have reported the same RMT doing the same activities multiple times but nothing is ever done. At least in xi you could speak 1 on 1 with a GM, here you cant. The problem is that if they dont talk about what they are doing no proof can be made that they are going against the tos so even if a GM "investigates" the issue they dont do anything about it. You can steal rape and pillage all you want in this game (xi too) as long as you dont say anything in type chat.

Fairly easy to spot an rmt, esp with the help of lodestone. Since I had time laying dead I checked. 1 Roegdyn with a single dd job at 50 and no other jobs up there and 3 Lalafell who only have con/thm at 50. They are the only 4 ppl in their ls and he was obviously controlling all 4 characters. As in any game its easy to spot when 1 person is controlling 3+ chars

Yes it is but when its done by RMT its more of a bother than if it were just by some d-bag

I know right. idk wth is up with all these rmt. My thoughts is that they are stocking up for v2 because they know they can get by with doing whatever they want right now. SE really seems to not care. I hope now that if they are doing things like mpking players to get their spoils that SE will pay more attn

So what you're saying is "MORE OPEN WORLD CONTENT PLEASE"

RMT & Bot...
In mysidia, we can find bot everywhere, like shrooms @@

I'm sure they'll get on that and the rampant botters in the game... in 4 years from now.

That doesn't make him a rmt, that makes him a multiboxer.(If he were to be playing the 4 characters together at all.)

Because when I dual/multi-box, my favourite activity is talking to my other character through my private LS. :)

Sorry! I agree that you can't tell anything from lodestone stalking, but you can certainly make a good assumption--suspicious characters are suspicious.

--------------
Whether or not the RMTs are reported, SE would have a difficult time proving anything right now. Someone already made the fairly valid point that no one in their right mind would buy gil in the current game. Any effort to combat RMT will be very restricted until they start sending money to random characters. A player looking suspicious to you is a really bad reason to ban them.. Some people MPK regardless of whether or not they play for fun or to make RL cash. >.>

If someone MPK'd me and stole my camp? I'd probably MPK them back.

Claim Bots are just as bad I've seen people get hate on the sentry just as he appears within a second about 20 times in a row!

you sir are useless

I know a ton of people with only 1 50 and its not even a DoW/DoM class, this proves nothing.

3 Lalafell who only have con/thm at 50

My LS has 7 Lalafells who have only 1 mage class at 50. They party with me (Elezen) and their bf/gfs (Roe/Hyur), again, that proves nothing.

Funny story? I trio box'd my character, my sister's character and her boyfriend's character in FFXI to work on my empyrean weapon and no one could tell that I was trio-boxing. Sometimes when you feel it's RMT doesn't necessarily mean it is RMT, it could just be an anon douchebag you never met just screwing with you or someone you ended up pissing off getting revenge or trying to clear you out.

I remember the XI days.

"HOLY SHIT THAT GUY IS SPEAKING CHINESE, RMT RMT RMT!"

This is what got a lot of innocent people banned in XI over the years, because they "acted like RMT" and got reported and ended up swept in the monthly bans by the STF.

That has nothng to do with botting. I've done it and have told my LS mates how as well. You just need to know when the spawn windows are. As long as you know that, you can claim them before they appear.

When I see a party of 8 level 40ish thaumaturge all in starter gear with names like:
BODoihweo Doihgro
BODjkh Hodohw
ect.. (names made up but there are tons like this on BODhum)

It makes me wonder...

You havent proven that they are RMT yet, what was thier name? There was someone in a natalan exp party who only had GLA leveled (not even MRD for voke) one level 50 is no way to prove they are RMT.

Also RMT do not use one person multiboxing, they use bots, its not that hard to setup a bot to use action bar actions.

Stop being a candy ass

Your OP should be

"Hey how do I become a more efficient player because as of right now I play at the same skill level as someone with downs and meanies keep taking all my mobs while Im picking my nose and drooling on my key board"

You sir are a gentleman and a scholar.

Now they're paying monthly fees, so they're not messing around. XD

for that, either using bot or that person has a faster internet :O
I know I claim mobs (against LS parties) better since I switched to fibers... and before, as you said I saw the mob already claimed before it pops when I was using ADSL.

I still don't know how to identified who is botting tho. I only know bot software tab around so the char will keep looking at you and other stuffs and looping (due to program keep hitting tab I guess and normal people won't tab around)...

nothing is stopping you from mpk'ing them back.

funny thing is i bet half the people posting are buying gil from them maybe you are too thats the only reason they exist you make them alot of money in real life. i been playing since launch but theres new people maybe a month old still lv30ish at best that have millions more money than me so someone is buying.

if people stop buying gil they will stop supporting the game.

You don't have to be high level to make money -_-

I would just get all my friends and mpk the crap out of them lol that is what we did in XI and they never tried to mess with us again heh >.>

its not a claim bot its all about knowing the spawn timers you can claim before they show on the screen.

ITT: huge amounts of ignorance. L2P as stated by ziar.

Who the ef would buy gil in this game...

It hurst a lot for in FFXI because of a percentage exp loss on knock-out. No such feature in FFXIV so knock-out is not as painful.

Hard call to make spotting RMT's, just be sure you're right!

I do not think RMT is going to catch on in this game. There is nothing people really need to buy. nothing is that hard to obtain and the items that are are untradeable.

gil is easy enough to come up with. I dont think these RMT will be making much money... In FFXI there was plenty of times i wish i had more gil. I didnt buy it but it definitely seemed lucrative. FFXIV not so much... which is good

Except it's been made clear that multi-melds are going to be better than U/U gear. So if you want the best gear, which people doubtless will, you'll want to pay 25mil for that multi-melded weapon.

Juss' sayin.
