Hi i'm pretty new to FF14 and i'm starting to notice that botting seems to be ignored by the Special Task Force team.

Seeing bots gathering aethersand and crafting crystal at all time is just extremely depressing to see. And looking at the pathetic amount of 4 bots being banned each week is even more depressing. I mean i could just wander around in aethersand gathering spots and i could find 4 bots in under 30 minutes and special task force could only find 4 per week? Well to be fair they also banned thousands of RMT accounts per week which is nice?

I'm also starting to believe that "Please note we are unable to provide individual responses to reports." in the bottom of report cheating tab, is just an excuse so they could turn a blind eye toward bot repots not because of privacy concerns. I mean i have reported this same fishing bot over and over again with video evidence of his bot glitching out ( spamming Patience II with no bait in inventory) and 1 week later the bot is still operational.

Maybe it's because that Special Task Force team only consist of 4 people (you can see that in the credits). But yeah they could be the one supervising the actual team that is responsible for banning the bots, but that's even worse if that's the truth since their combined effort has only banned 4 bots each week.

I'm really sorry if my post is a bit aggressive towards FF14 dev team but i'm just frustrated that this whole issue has been ignored almost entirely
