Will Bot's ever be punished?

[Impulse]

RMT in XIV hahah, who would buy money in a game that is so plentiful? XI you were hard pressed to make money. here its thrown at you. the devs know this so they are keeping the subscription money while these RMT make no return

You underestimate the laziness of people on the internet.

First of all, I think legit players need to recognize this as dividing the community. Just talking about it, making pointless reports on it wouldn't really solve anything. Everyone with integrity should continue the adventure aware of corruption and underground flimflammery. It's pretty easy to confuse anti-socialist with 'bots' ...most casuals who aren't in big LSs could be left out of the loop...

We need to either gather together, discuss this issue and form a link-shell or join one(if you haven't done so already). Link-shell leaders should rally, form a petition to transfer to a new world/server and abandon to Bot/RMT infestation. If SE can isolate a new server for this project, everyone in the world would know Square Enix is a company that's not just for the game but for the it's "real playas". While I'm pretty sure 'they' could be reading this as well, be sure who you know is who they say they are.

Kinda like wishful thinking but it's the only resolve that I can think of.

i will not cohort with a socialist

No, they won't be punished. SE would rather not shoot themselves in the foot when they are already so deep in the hole on this game as it is.

You say that now but it might lead to a economic crash and burn if rampant rmt botting persists too long.

Oh right because it is so balanced now? Its not like everyones running around with tens of millions and doesnt need to buy anything and level 10 gear is about 50k.

Yep, we wouldn't want an economic crash...

XI Economy crashed because people came full sweeping in with gil and paid the prices, and that happened pretty much after the first week in XIV since were now swimming in Gil.

As for RMT being Subscribers, I stated that SE likely is not banning for the $$$ but people argued with me saying that RMT use stolen CC and then SE are therefor losing money. While i wont get into that debate, it might be something to think about as it could be true.

if you follow RMT activity you will always see that the minions get toggled around, it only takes a day to get 7 chars to 23, so either they delete chars or get banned as their characters go missing from lodestone, only specific ones who "help" end up staying for years. Likely the Gil holders also stay as SE unlikely has a way to trace money trades.

Lol, I dig. It's what most countries & governments are cohort in doing these days.

I saw a blm botting once when I was a lower level, I got his firaga timed down so perfectly that I aoe claimed while he repeatedly killed them
so next time you see a bot, go get yourself a free PL
