Botting must go!!!

[Basch1990]

So, it's hard to make anti-bot systems. Some games have less bots due to the way they allow real money trading as a part of the game's features (IE: Guild Wars 2 and Perfect World.) But, as FFXIV is a pay to play, this won't cut it. What they could do as well, is add a dot wherever there isn't solid land or anywhere that's outside normal hitboxes... this would make it so that bots that are underground would suffer.

Yes but WoW has something that actually does help.... as I mentioned it's called The Warden.... I do what it is since I don't bot but I'm sure they can figure it out but they just continue to rely on the reports which in a way they are set in an inconvenient way.... I mean hell put in an easier report system or make an actual afk timer... 30 mins with set to back and you get booted

They could first set the AFK timer to boot at 12 hours, if they think that it might cause problems for people. (Only boots people with "AFK" Status.) To test the waters. If they feel it needs to be shorter, they can then try 8 hours, 5 hours, etc.

Exactly or set a impossible to beat monster (or guards for the town's) when they are afk too long or show any type of tampering

I'm sure MPK Trolls would find a way to exploit that and kill legit players.

Not if it doesn't have some aoe attacks.... if it just attacks the specified player it would be fine

Would be better if it could only attack players with AFK Status on and like you said, no AOE attacks.
