I don't mind it, at least we have some materials on hand, that most level 50+ gatherers abandoned long time ago. Sometimes I can't be bothered to go and grab 5 low tier materials that you need as sub material etc, or the pain to gather shards if I forgot to sent out my 6 retainers, I am glad to get these items without any frustration. Same goes for crafting, you know how much money I make with items people abandoned years ago? I don't mind couple of bots undercutting me, at the end I still make enough gil to not care. It can't be compared with pvp bots since that's a complete different thing, and why nowadays everybody needs to move their actual topic of interest towards pvp, when trying to prove a point?
