Discussion: How Can We Handle Botting Better?

[Fhaerron]

Which would mean Square isn't taking action on people breaking the terms. Doesn't sound like a good thing for a company to do.

I actually had a discussion with some people about botting a while ago, and I think that the person replied to me might actually be right. (To give more context I was actually wondering why SE wouldn't perma ban accounts of people who buy gil from such botters).

So it's basically totally fine to break the ToS then.

Why make a ToS in the first place then?

Because if they actually had 14 million players like they brag about, they could actually enforce them. But when you tell the media 14m and only have maybe 500k you need to hold onto them as hard as you can to give the illusion your numbers are real.
