Just Another 3rd party bot BUT 1000 TIMES WORSE

[Mortikhan]

I've been who with the what?
You give ideas way too much credit. They don't fall far from the tree. The tree is the ultimate problem when the fruit is horrible.

Enlighten us then. Tell us the plan for dealing with RMT and bots. Please keep in mind that you can't ban everyone who crafts over 30 minutes without a leve to do or happens to do any gathering on their own for more than 30 minutes. Please tell me the site where I can pick up the latest version of "Bot Detect and Smash"...oh wait that would be a 3rd party program wouldn't it? Is your superiority in finding and harassing bots a proven method that anyone can do or will I need bionic implants? I want to know your secret formula for this activity...I would also like to know who empowered you to do it. Please share.

This is my sarcastic way of pointing out that you still have not outlined or placed any guidelines or (most importantly) restrictions on the activities of bot hunters. The "we are bot hunters so all of our actions are justified" routine is a license to aggravate other players that you as a player are granting to others. You are encouraging behavior that you have no authority to condone which is going to get some person with the best intentions banned. At some point you are going to have to put down that sheriff badge and realize that it is not your call to make.

Let's get back on topic. I will ask you the questions point blank. How do think players should react if they suspect a person is botting or RMT? What actions do you think they should take against a suspected botter or RMT? If SE does not ban a person you suspect of botting or RMT, what do you think a player is entitled to do? What methods should be employed to confirm a player is botting or RMT in your opinion and are players capable of confirmation?

If our fruit here at FFXIV is rotten then show us the way to the promised land. Show us the unspoiled fruit of nirvana. Let's see what fruit falls from your tree.
