Unless SE do something this is going to hurt them so badly in the long run, the glossy coat is beginning to wear off and people are starting to see the cracks.

During beta they were literally giving feedback on everything, no matter how small, now release is here and we can't get a response one way or the other on this game breaking oversight.
Oh i'm sure they know what the problem is and how to fix it, they just don't want to stop doing what they have been doing since they created FFXI: Code the game against RMT and Botters. The game goes through WAY too many server side checks on the character which make you lag behind i'm sure. Can see it with gathering and how the UI responds after each gather attempt. WoW did it right and created a client side system that checks for illegal mods or client modification and sends the needed info to the right people to get the bans/legal action going, which doesn't cause your connection to the servers to lag or delay to any noticable level and still catches cheaters. Its in the EULA. This game is going to continue to fail if SE doesn't adopt a client based cheat check and position so people can play comfortably.
