It's quite frankly insulting when people cry "bot" because someone does something better or faster than them. Do you complain when someone clears a dungeon before you? Because someone has more gil than you? Because someone got a house and you didn't? It just screams insecurity really.
It's about being around for a period of time to see the inaction. I didn't just report someone yesterday and expect it to be dealt with by now. Reporting people for very clearly botting. As an example, one person I reported multiple times was botting timed nodes near non-stop. I caught them one day using something to farm mobs. They would fly in a perfect vertical circle until a goat spawned and aggroed, kill it and then return to the perfect circle repeating this over and over again. That was YEARS ago and they're still active to this day. The best part is they've used all their ill-gotten gains to buy up a bunch of houses all over on multiple of their characters.
