Creepy ffxiv Bots

[TheVedis]

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

ohhhh please tell us what "legwork" you have done.


ive filled out the forms on sqex's site i even made the post for all you to see even put in a little snippit of a video of said bots doing bot things


so please explain to us what extra leg work you were able to accomplish.

ive done enough thats what, ive gotten people banned, you obviously havent, thats why you are complaining about the system not working

[TheVedis]

the vid was the first thing i saw,lol

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

[Vassteel]

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.

Ya the real crime here is that the botters just aren't very creative. That's what really struck me about the photos of the "unproven suspicious activity people". If they would only put some effort into their names and character models I would be happy to have them as a part of the community, as is though it's just unacceptable.

Also Vassteel I love your signature.

you might as well just say that.

and you sure have alot of lvl 50's and your so well versed as to how bots function and do not function. hmm mabe you too bot and RMT.

sure seems like you do, being as defensive about botting as you are

Dude, i don't think you've actually read what he said. I have, and I do not see him defending RMT's. Yes, we all know they are, but you can't prove it just because they all look alike, have funny names, and all click a leve and sit in one spot.

All TheVedis is saying is that before SE will ban anyone they need proof. More than just some random tarus sitting in a corner.

I never liked RMT, it used to be worse in FFXI, until SE cleaned house. They always did that every so often, when it was getting really bad.

Also, keep in mind, without demand, there would be no RMT. So maybe we should pick on people that are buying gil instead on people that are supplying it, since they will always be there.

[Vassteel]

every one says to pick up on the people who are buying gil. how exactly would you accomplish that. there's no wallet auditing tools.

if ffxiv had the transparency of that eve online has it wouldn't be very hard to pin the gil buyers

Moar RMT = Moar money for SE to make 2.0 with. They don't care.
