I also noticed a ridiculous number of gil-farming bots today. I'd assume whatever group is responsible for them probably set up their script to mass-produce them across multiple servers simultaneously.

But yeah. The reporting functions are woefully inadequate, and I'm not sure they even read my reports when I haven't managed to get a single player banned out of the dozens of bots I've reported. The whole "No responses for reports" deal makes it impossible to know whether or not you provided enough information for them to take action or feel a matter is even worth investigating.
