    There absolutely has to be a way to find these folks' true IP addresses (whether they're in China, Eastern Europe, or wherever) and permanently ban them.

    Hi Hayward.
    Yes, all sorts of information can be found...
    http://whois.domaintools.com/
    From there, just type in the URL that the spam-bot demands you go to.

    If, for example, you do a search-engine search for
    the spam company that starts with the letter "x"
    using search arguments like "x" criminal background, or "x" cyber-crime, etc.
    there are roughly 50,000 websites describing the cyber-crime
    background of this unstoppable* spam-bot owner.

    Courteous and polite efforts, to inform the GM staff
    of spambot owners' criminal backgrounds, have all
    failed, as far as I can tell.

    *They can be stopped, if network security is taken seriously.

    i dont hate bots i hate ppl that need to cheat buying gils from them and it seen like ppl dont stop buying gils cus bots are multiplying every second they making a lot of money from lazy players. why i am in mor dhona and bots still harassing me there when they dont discover maps. nobody besides bots uses search and they can just go there and view everybody in every single map. why dont remove the sending gil option from mail? why somebody that is not my friend can send me private msgs (tells) my blacklist is full i have to unblock a bot to block another bot, cant even unlock all at once and have a lot blocked bots displaying the same name (deleted) while they still occupying room in blacklist. have 3 friends bots request sittinng on a corner of my screen. i do dungs, log in out and they still there. im so paranoid i always try to block anybody sending shouts cus bots always there. we can block 200 bots in less than a week so it means we gonna have to send 200 reports weekly
