More so cus they don't publicly announce the presence in game or have any instant action. By the time they do take action, they are soon replaced with others and thus looks as if nothing has been done. Since RMT is constantly throwing new people into the spamming and whisper pool a good amount of those who do get flagged while others are missed when the mass ban happens which in turn when they do post or say "We removed X people" we look back and see those same people still there. I admit botting may be a bit harder to detect but anyone with a suspicious name (especially when its a group of 8 blackmages, all ill equipped with str or lv 10 accessories at level 50 with jibberish names should be watched) or blatantly promoting the selling of gil should be an instant removal, no questions.


The problem with botters is they try to make it realistic but when your running past your target, stopping, turning around then going back to it. All a GM would need is a quick glance, message them with no response (cus I am sure if you get a message from a GM you ARE going to respond) to toss them in an in game jail or such. Main thing I am getting at, we can say they are hard at work, we can see the posts, but if don't actively see results we are going to question.
