Bot's on Market Board...? Really?

[Sqwall]

You can keep living in fantasy-land if you wish.

The irony.

I agree with Militaryvet123 as you are being fairly naive here. This is a KNOWN issue. I find it very concerning with a few bots on my server that when you throw them an invite, are literally underneath the map. Or have such a predictable pathing that is literally no strafing, jumping. Flying without a mount...like literally walking into the sky and clipping in city zones. I have been tracking one on my server for about 2 weeks. This "player" has all the symptoms.

1. Check the Market Board and find that they are in every single high end gear, high end mats, and high end miner/botanist/fisher category. You can literally SEE the name of the player that posted the mat...which is this player.
2. They have 5 retainers, and counted 3 of the retainers with 20/20 items. It took me some time to find them all, but the other 2 were in lower level mats.
3. The mats for 3 of the retainers were infact....the lowest prices on the MB. Majority were 490 gear, Brashgold plates, cobalt alloy ingots, dusk court cloth, etc;
4. I search for this "player" and found them in Am Arang, "farming". I tried inviting them...didn't respond. /tell no response. Physically looking for them in the zone...no where near the nodes...and I swept 4 times. Never ran into the "player".
5. I place an item on the MB and undercut this "player" by literally 1 gil.... a 490 crafting ring. This "player" you seem to think is legit....changed their posting as like they should. It took around 15 min of watching the MB. But they did....from FREAKING AM ARANG!!!!! There is NO retainer bell in am arang?! And I was so upset that I kept checking for 3 min were they were....STILL in am arange "farming". How could they access there retainer with out a bell?
6. Last but not least....i waited until they when to another zone....which this time was the housing in Limsa. Saw the address they were at....paid them a visit. Just a plain....jane....house....nothing special....just....a house. No decor...no paint...nothing. Now...if you would think you had all crafters leveled to 80....all gatherers leveled to 80...and only 1 level 80 tank (fast ques)...one would think....this seems suspicious as hell.

Stop being this naive....it's clear that something is up and makes no sense for even a simple detective work. The data and evidence shows this is clearly not right.
