Does Square intend to address Market botting?

[ItMe]

Yeah good for who? Which party benefits here? Everyone 'cept for legit crafters. And let's be honest, most players have enough gil to buy any gear they want regardless of the price. Crafters are screwed in any scenario 'cept the one without bots.

I feel like I answered that question here (p43):

So correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like in FF14 a crashed market is:

-- Inconvenient to some (if they've over extended)

-- Annoying to others (people who already at least broke even and the lower prices are challenging further profits)

-- But it's beneficial to literally everyone else and helps keep the game healthy and keeps items/products freely circulating.
