Botting his way to mining

[APilgrim]

...The only way to tell if someone is botting is if they're using teleports.

Incorrect. Go to google and look up the assortment of bots players can get for mining and botany in FFXIV. None of them advertise teleporting (I'd guess RMT mainly utilizes blatant teleporting because they don't care as much if a hacked account is banned) and all run a recorded circuit that checks hotspots for the presence of a node - it's really not that difficult to watch and differentiate between people repetitively mining/botany'ing and automated scripts that run without deviation for hours/days/weeks.

[Was editing when you responded - my point is that I disagree with your argument that it's impossible for anyone to go lookup how the bots function, their features, and then go in-game and be able to differentiate between players and bots fairly easily.]

What's your point? I didn't say the only type of bot was teleporting bot. I said the only way you can be sure someone is botting by observing alone is if they're using one of the teleport ones.

I swear, some people just like to argue for no reason.
