Should botting be somehow legalized?

I recently started a thread similar to this, asking we all be given a level playing field and I pretty much got flamed, so be it. I wonder if the people who flamed me still hold the same opinion being as SE have said the first tickets for the forthcoming convention will be sent to the most active players, who are indeed the very players who use bots for mining shards, the same players who never get punished. Seems to me like those honest people are yet again penalised.

Yeah, S-E loves the botters. That's why they don't want you at their conventions. Not because you're wierd and a conspiracy nut or anything.

If you are implying I am using 3rd party software go right ahead and report me. I'm not weird or a conspiracy nut, but when you go online at different times of the day and see the same character in nine ivies farming shards by travelling in the exact same footsteps as before 7 days a week then you will know where I come from. And for those accounts you see closed are for RMT advertised within the game, not the RMT advertised on sites like Ebay. Next time you see a cotton cowl selling for like a million gil you'll understand why.
