Making Market Board transactions is not against the ToS even if they do follow somewhat suspicious trends. What the task force will do even though they don't have the evidence to ban the character is flag the account and monitor transactions and trades which can lead to the gil carrying RMT chars AND gil buyers by extension. The post above you describes how a /tell may be replied to and again there's likely someone monitioring the 10+ screens the bots are running on even if they do have a /tell reply script running. What does interrupting them with a trade window accomplish btw? Is the fact they don't cancel the trade window grounds to call them a bot?

The devil's advocate thing is getting old...sorry I'm not going to argue my case anymore, have done already in other threads. I know they are bots. People do make mistakes and assume characters are botting when they may not be, I'm well aware of this.
If you open trade, their character auto switches targets endlessly. I highly doubt a real person would sit there holding down the tab key while someone has a trade window open on them...if that even works.

They know that, is why i stopped reporting, because they either ignore it entirely or some hidden factor is keeping them from caring. As the Op said it seems using bots is perfectly fine, as you can clearly see the evidence that nothing will happen to you. most people who see bots know what a bot is. this isn't a case of "mistaken identity" they know full well people can and will bot.

A glitch in the game that gives legit players unfair advantage, they will patch that within a day, but a bot destroying the economy? go right ahead.
