Does Square intend to address Market botting?

It seems like the MB bots on Leviathan are gone. At least the ones I'm aware of. Maybe they changed names or made a new character, but it doesn't seem like they are there. I see people undercutting by 1 gil (which is normal). What I don't see is one guy with multiple levels of DoW/M/H/L gear up for sale that is always the lowest by 1 gil and then puts up another piece of gear to replace the one that sold within seconds.

Of course, it could be they just aren't ready to bot crafting/selling just yet? I don't know. But it has been nice. I have my doubts SE took care of them, but maybe they did.

The thing that's going on right now is that they do not have scripts to get bots through the Endwalker MSQ and likely even the post-patches of ShB, so the only bot farmers you'll see are ones that were manually grinded through the story.

The bulk of the bots you'll see for the time being are just lazy players on their main accounts though I see some of my server's usual suspects in farm mode already...

The fact that only seven people got banned last week across the entire game when I tend to see dozens of them on Cactuar alone says enough about how poorly the situation is being handled.
