No joke, during one of my daily roulettes today I saw one member of the group rant about SE banning add-on users instead of bots. To be fair, it was only one comment and nobody else responded to it but its this self-entitled angry culture that while I understand comes from a passion for making this game better.... I just feel somehow got way into one side of the extreme and its tiring to watch.

I think this video here nicely outlies the actual issue that people should be made well aware rather their overreactions over the actual problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4OPGYN6NGw
In fairness, bots and RMT are arguably a bigger problem, and the task force is too small to deal with it all. Sure, both things are present in any MMO, but they do run rampant in FF XIV. And no, the Lodestone updates don't mean jack squat.
