The thing that annoys me most about this whole situation is that it's not as though it couldn't be controlled if they could actually recognize and ban the bots, as it takes much longer for an omnicrafter bot to get itself established then the other types.
If they simply did a mass sweep without any prior warning, that alone would scare off a good number of players. Actual player boys have become such a problem lately simply because they know SE won't do a damn thing.

To quote someone I once did ucob with whose friend botted. "I could crash the pot market to 100 gil if I really wanted to. It's still profit for me."

Until SE actually starts doing something, there isn't anything people can do. Bots have essentially infinite resources.
