Attention devs: Game Surveillance Unit re: open world Bots.

They're now back in Mor Dhona X18 Y17..still botting.

Confirmed x 4 still botting X18 Y17 Mor Dhona 10/11/14.
No action taken.

There is also always at least one player botting the Level 50 mining nodes in East Shroud. Can't get SE to ban any of them.

I guess this is why I'm really hopeful that we can be vocal enough to get them to do something about the bot infestation.

It's funny, I've played MMO's for going on 10 years, I've seen developers similar to SE that really don't try to manage any time to fix problems in their games, but I can't think of one of them where the staff wasn't some what involved in trying to help the customers know that they are trying to figure out how best to rectify the problem, it's like being in the Walmart of MMO's...

page 31 and still no devs? yet the sleipnir mount thread gets hit up after page 2??? lol

bump.

Same bots, new day [09/11/14]. Coordinates are in the screenshots.

Botting Earth Sprites in Western Thanalan




Botting Wind Sprites in Lower La Noscea





Also here's one of Tonberry's resident mining bots for good measure, also in Nophica's Wells - Western Thanalan.



None have been banned, when will you start banning these bots SE? CM's could you please respond to this thread with some direction on this major issue in FFXIV ARR.

These same bots are currently in these locations botting. Square Enix still has not banned them for breaching the user agreement for many many months, who knows maybe they're going on 1 year now?

Bot brigade in Ul'dah on Tonberry..astounding that they are allowed to do this.

[Haeresis]

The funny part was see my friend leveling his Ninja with Bot. LOL

Confirmed x 4 still botting X18 Y17 Mor Dhona 10/11/14.
No action taken.

They're back botting in Mor Dhona now, coords above. CM's hello?

[AutumnsHollow]

It's been a while since I posted, but I finally found the same bots again. They migrated back to north shroud right in front of the ixal gates killing plasmoids/treants. I took a screen shot this time.



There's a lalafell black mage hidden behind the skirts of the human white mage, and the elezan scholar.

Trust me when I say you're the minority in this case. Remember S.E. all sees is loss of $$$ by taking any creditable action against bot users and R.M.T's. Nothing personal just business as the saying goes.
