Please hire GMs

[jdnyc]

Instead of putting in a situational vote kick, please hire people to police the game.
Allow players to report player or situation.

GMs can fix botters, AFK peeps in dungeons, Gold spammers.

Save the programming investment on content and account security. Hire GMs to handle community issues.

He is and i like his idea. Seriously. GMs in ffxi were really nice.

I concur. Please SE. The bot spam is hurting this game more than anything else. AH is getting hammered.

most of that stuff could be automated and i dont see why it wasnt in the first place not hard to ban people repeatedly sending the same line of text over and over or even detecting certain phrases like gil for sale etc they had this functionality back in text base days why not now?

if thats true their presence is nearly non-existant. there's no excuse for a teleport farming bot to still be around 2 weeks after i report them. its not even something that takes a lengthy conversation. just a few seconds of looking at one is enough reason to instantly ban them.

Are you kidding? Where do you think they could possible get that kind of money with a F2P game like ARR? Oh wait...

I hope SE has still some event GMs for ingame roleplay like the reporters in 1.0

it is not that easy to press the ban button, there are some rules and some stuff need to be done before you can ban (and you ban the root). And Gm are ingame, they dont have to : HEY WORLD, gm <name> will now show himself to the world to know that we are here and doing our job

This. A thousand times. There. You cannot argue with that. You just can't.
