    Forgive me, but I will use your comment as an example.

    When I played other MMOs I once learned that there are real "bot companies" that operate in various MMOs aiming to exchange items and in-game currency for real money on volatile and temporary sites.

    So, the view that what they're looking to drop in their activities are more or less important (because it's cheap or low in demand or because it's something common or easy or not obtain by the regular player) DOESN'T MATTER. Because, the important thing is to have the vision of the whole picture.

    Little profit or not in each activity on each place they spawn on each game, these companies will destroy the economy on every single game they touch while honest gamers will always suffer.

    The first thing we have to do is NEVER BUY GIL or anything from suspicious sites. And the second one is always be mindful about those f*****s. And the third one is to help the company we all have signed their ToS. They have the obligation to mitigate this kind of problem and we can do (even but a little) to help them in that.

    And i've learned over the years that doing nothing to help companies will lead to the same conclusion as doing everything in your power to aid them. They always go after the bots, not the perpetrators and benefactors = it's a waste of your time to report bots and it's a waste of a tiny amount of the companys money to pretend they're doing something about it.

    Just like with everything else, until we force their hand nothing will change. Of course, such unified effort is unheard of, so it is what it is.

    That surely could be true, yes.

    Anyway, I prefer to believe. I've seen some "old" MMOs dying for not solving this kind of problem properly. And since we have so many fans of this franchise and so many players around the world in this game, it would be horrible to see this game dying at the hands of bot companies.

    I want to believe that if we don't feed their bellies by buying their damn currency, maybe - just maybe - their effort to stay in the game will slow down a little (if people don't applaud the clown, the show is over). I know people are different and honesty doesn't always have the same value in people's minds. Some will take the easiest way out, no matter if the act is considered a shame to others. I know I know...

    But maybe we can at least convince the regular, initial and even the "naive" player on this subject not to fall for this crap and show them the real problem of bots and this industry.

    Yeah, call me a dreamer, but yeah... I'll still believing
