Level 70 gathering bots go unpunished

[Vnolan]

XIV is easily the most negligent P2P MMO I've encountered when it comes to this matter, but who knows whether it's due to incompetence or an actual lack of concern

72-hour ban for botting makes it easy to see which.

They seem to have a zero tolerance policy for the RMT-related bots, so I don't know why they're flexible about what is/isn't worthy of a permaban, particularly because most of them are paying for subs so they can shout and/or hit level 50.

All bots in general should just get perma-banned, since it's not like it's difficult to determine whether or not someone is doing it (They can just PM a suspect then banhammer if they don't respond within X number of minutes, since any normal player would reply).

I'm not sure what it even takes for them to get caught, since it's not like all these gather/craft bots aren't painfully obvious from their abnormally long periods pf activity and awkward movement patterns.
