Does Square intend to address Market botting?

Just wanted to add that this has been happening on Midgardsormr for probably two months now. I took these images today, because I got so frustrated. If the bots were just selling one or two items, fine, but they're selling dozens of the same item and undercutting every ~90 seconds. It is unreal.

according to some people here thats just normal gameplay. I mean you can change a ton of prices that fast cant you? Its a list of items or one in every item, which they change at the same rate.

and somehow.. that cant be detected?

There is no way they can change 4 retainers' item sets that quickly as a real person. I play on PC, and there are just too many menus for that even with the speed of kb/m when you're an actual human being checking prices and adjusting. The whole MB UX/UI is a separate complaint. Sure, it's normal to price change and undercut by 1g, but not on multiple retainers (who also undercut each other), for multiple items, predictably and instantly.

You'd think that seeing a consistent and predictable change like this across many retainers for an extended period of time would trigger something. It's not normal. You'd have to be an actual robot to do this.
