Reported these bots nothing happens!

You're wasting your time reporting them. Nothing will happen. GMs aren't allowed to do anything about bots no matter how obvious and the STF might as well not exist when it comes to these types of bots.

Well all I know to do is make some noise here then maybe people could back me up. I give SE that they do at least listen to there players.

Sadly, Vnolan is correct—reporting does very little; making noise does very little. There have been previous PLL Q&A threads where posters here have made posts requesting that the developers address the botting issues, and the lack of action when it comes to reports. Those questions have mostly been ignored in favor of answering “When can we get X glamour items on X job”.

There are several gathering and crafting bots on my server that have been reported by a myriad of individuals since SB dropped, and they have never been punished for it. I even reported 3 of them for botting in Anemos when it was current. They’re still there, though. Every day. Botting away. Destroying the consumables market on my server to the point other crafters have transferred to other servers. I stopped reporting because my reports seemed to fall on deaf ears.

This isn’t me defending botting. This is just me saying it gets tiring to take the time to fill out reports when nothing is ever done about those who are repeatedly reported by multiple people.

Maybe if you spoke Japanese they would probably listen to you. English? Pffft. SE cares that you pay your sub every month. Nothing more and nothing less. Your best bet is to just ignore and carry on.
