FFXIV Devs: Please STOP punishing normal players for others breaking the rules.

[rance-sama]

Sadly, the most vocal minority makes the most noise and thus the devs cater to them.
It's really sad to be honest.

It's a pretty senseless change and much like the "greed only" 24 man loot system i hope this one doesn't stick around as well.

[Dzian]

Probably an unpopular option - but for the world first teams where Yoshi saw them using these they could ban them even if just temporarily. I mean, he SAW them using it and that's what prompted this in the first place.

I think it speaks volumes when the devs can actually SEE you cheating and still wont punish you or take any action. All it does is prove that the devs really don't care at all. Its no wonder theres so many botters and stuff around because even if the devs see you botting they wont do anything other than say an absolute meaningless "Please don't" which gets totally ignored.

And people wonder why things are in the state there in...

Does this mean I cant write CID in Castrum no more?
Well that does it!

For me it's great addon

Farming Extremes / Savages

Now instead of taking my time - just simple click and done

( even better- we can have pressers [ for example three different would do the job, because most fights have two - three phases ])

I don't understand people going angry/upset about it

I think to myself " it's as usual " no matter what we get it's always QQ time

You can't change them in fight now, so you can't put different markers for another phase.

[KageTokage]

This change really only scratches the surface of the stuff people are using to get an advantage in raids and as pointed out harms people who were playing fair and adjusting the markers manually instead of with a bot.

They'd need to add some encryption to the data being sent to the client from the server if they don't want people using ACT to announce mechanics way before they actually happen.

Or no markers at all in the 2nd phase of Shinryuu. It's not like I can add those before the fight.

He said in the letter he didn't know it even existed to begin with. It was brought up in discussion, so he finally had to say something

Since when cheaters are the silent majority? That is sad....
