I have a hard time believing someone posting 2000 Grade 6 Tincture of Intelligence, 1000 of the Mind in stacks of 99 aren't bot crafting all those.

Just another day with XIV's screwed-up and largely unpoliced economy. Bans happen so infrequently that the few people who I know to have gotten banned already had replacement bots lined up so it didn't even matter in the long run.
The only positive is that it's easier to fight back against people selling items in massive stacks by just selling in smaller quantities...though regardless, it's not safe to assume high quantities = botting without digging deeper for more evidence.

Yes, all the time. It still takes a long time to craft 3k+ items.
My macro takes 50s to craft these, 55s if you want to include the pauses between macro and between crafts. That means it would take over 15 hours non-stop to craft 1000 times resulting in 3k total like this person seems to be posting.
So either someone doesn't have anything else to do in life, which is possible, or they bot. I'm leaning toward botting. It's never been this bad in this game, ever.
From my personal experience, it's been gods-awful ever since Stormblood eased the crafting requirements/difficulty and got even worse once the Firmament enabled power-leveling of DoL/H professions. There are now "one and done" scripts that will basically take a fresh character with Firmament access and grind everything DoL/H from 1-80 with scarcely any input needed.
The same few people have been flooding Cactuar's MB with thousands of tinctures since that time and some of them are multi-boxing multiple bots to maximize efficiency and churn them out basically 24/7.

Yep, it does, but I am sure you, like I could, can do 5 batches of 33 without really getting bored. That's 500. Do that each day for a week. 3500. List as you go, or save and list at the end.
Crafting is so simple to level, and EW made it even easier.It's never been this bad in this game, ever.

At this point I’d be more grateful if they let us set the amount of items to HQ-craft like how we set quick synth.
if you want sussy MB listings, here's my find from saturday night lol
tinctures ingredients aren't too hard to make, I believe, esp if you're buying up all the ingredients on the MB + fishing them out, spend all day crafting the tinctures and bam, you've got a lot. I'd just wonder why. Those things haven't been fast sellers in my experience
I do wonder... Who gonna bought 60 of that hair?if you want sussy MB listings, here's my find from saturday night lol
