Every time the weekly ban report goes out, I just sigh and shake my head because I know the bots who are actually screwing things up for other players are still going to be doing their thing no matter how times I report them.

Still, 26 perma bans for botting is an improvement over the one ban from last week. I honestly feel like they're mistakenly lumping the gil farmers into that category at times, though, because if they were banning that many non-RMT bots every week, their numbers would start thinning out because they aren't that common (Cactaur only has maybe eight or so gathering bots that are active regularly in spite of being a high pop server, though there's no telling how many crafting bots there are) nor are they easily replaced.
