Bit Concerned On Something I Saw Reading the Patch Notes

[KageTokage]

I wouldn't assume these presumably bot-created FCs were made with the intent of claiming/selling housing (Though I sure as heck wouldn't put it past them).

The gil farming process that occurs on a regular basis across several servers is likely synchronized to the point where the bots are creating their FCs needed for easy gil transfers almost simultaneously, as they're done using PCs that are running several dozen accounts at the same time using modded, interface-free clients that basically aren't doing anything but logging their characters into the game, with everything else handled by botting scripts.
