    hackers/in game support

    Can we get better in game support I reported hackers in this game gave you their name/world in all but no action are being done to prevent them from doing it I think it's such b.s. for me to sacrifice many hours out of the day lving multiple characters while someone not even playing the game fate farming northen thalan fates all day getting all classes to 60 -_-

    Kinda how my mind set was turning. Why should I slave away to get to 60 when other people have bots doing it and don't seem to get any trouble for it? When they do, it seems like a slap on the wrist of a small ban.

    Botters, not Hackers

    With that out of the way, it's not always evident what's done with them. The STF/devs/whoever release a report occasionally about how many accounts violated ToS in one way or another and what sorts of actions were taken upon those accounts, this's the same report that RMTs issues are listed in. They don't delete the characters/names(if you blacklist them as well as report).

    Ultimately you have one of two options when you see these players: ignore them, or keep reporting.

    Specifically this is the report they make available for players to see (Released Yesterday): http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...bd9b7dbc0ce333

    Have you ever gone back through the reports and added up the number of banned accounts this is? It's literally hundreds of thousands....and yet people would still have us believe that the STF does little to nothing.

    I spent so many hours playing game instead of working out sacrifice time and effort this is not cool to see someone gain more by cheating with no consequence than a person who put in hard work

    Unfortunately, as soon as online games were invented people have found ways to automate playing a game
    (even though it's like why play...but whatever)

    Botting has always been around, but there was a significant rise of them when HW went live. Unfortunately, SE's hands-off approach about quick response to non-harassment cases and punishment only encourages the choice to bot. I mean, think about how win-trading is handled in this game. Zero punishment and the most they'll do is simply say "it's not encouraged to do it". I seriously do not look down on people who bot, but it still won't stop an occasional futile report or two from me. I just know, for a fact, botting will not get you banned as long as you're quiet/careful about it and don't use hacks in combination. Even then, hacks aren't exactly going to get you banned neither. Speed hacks, for example, were used by several botters I reported. They're still around with zero punishment after weeks of use.
