Why are people rewarded for cheating?

[Sadana]

There seem to be two groups of people in this thread:

1. Those who have figured out how the XIV economy works, have made their millions, and are puzzled that others complain that the RMT bots are ruining the economy when the way to make REAL gil in this game involves no botting whatsoever.

2. Those who haven't figured out how the XIV economy works, and assume everyone in the first group is buying gil, botting, or some combination of the two.

Your first supposition is not exactly correct. There are those in this thread that both make decent gil from the mb, don't assume everyone with gil has bought it*, and still don't want bots in game. To me, it's like seeing a fly in my soup. ><;

*Someone with 1 or 2 classes leveled/somewhat leveled and 0 gathering/crafting classes and millions to spend HAS, however, probably bought gil from RMT.
