Creepy ffxiv Bots

[TheVedis]

well this player did 10000 leves in 2 months and im not sure if thats even humanly possable

its more possible then you realize when you get 64 per day....

again, what you are witnessing is only suspicious activity, we do not determine guilt, the task force does

if the player is actualy legit, just 8 boxing it or something(even if they are future rmt in training accounts and such) that is not grounds to ban

once they cross the line, get caught with the hack/bot program or engage in an rmt activity, now that is when something can be done

[fusional]

1. design game awkwardly from the ground up to try to thwart RMT/botting
2. break game, RMT/botting prevails anyway
3. ???
4. no profit

square and tanaka awesome game, great job!

i never demanded any thing i just made the post saing they were obviously bots we all know their bots its fucking obvious. pennies in the keyboard or not. any form of automation is bannable

Clearly those photos are of a group of very like minded close knit friends who are playing together. I am offended you would jump to such wild accusations. Those friends are probably all very sad and dismayed that you've labelled them as some sort of robotic player.

the photos are suspicious yes, but they are far from the proof needed to actualy ban someone
the problem is those pictures in no way shape or form prove someone in an rmt or botting

its probly someone 8 boxing in order to engage in future rmt activity(which while yes will be ilelgal in the future, the way he is leveling them now is not illegal)

and thats where the problem lies with this method, you cant ban someone now for what may or may not happen in the future

Ok vas, i didnt see you had a video in there(thought you were refering to "if" you posted a video, i only saw the pictures(shoulda posted the video first)

Yeah, that looks suspicious all right, and if a gm/task force actualy came across them in the act, something may be done about it

also vas, gonna warn you now, change your sig, its violating TOS and i am reporting it

[Vassteel]

well if you already reported it i have no reason to change it then do i

Oh lord people, yes, that is obvious suspicious botting-esk activity. And maybe with the video SE might even do something about is as the tab/eerie looking off thing seems afk-ish suspicious. Also, I'd like to add that even if SE looked into this group they very likely would find 'eh, they are kinda scetchy, but not doing anything truely against the TOA...atm' Most of these 'leve-bots' are just earning gils now to RMT it up laters (probably around 2.0). SE most likely can't bust any of them until that point. So for as creepy, sleazy and annoying as they are in game right now (I think every server has the Cedarwood botters), not much will be done about most of them until they can actually be PROVEN guilty (again probably version 2.0).

But botters, if you are reading this STOP USING LALAFELLS....we deserve better.
