Hey look a spreadsheet of all the eureka bots!

every single person saying they would deserve to get banned for reporting bots because it's against the rules are the same twerps that reminded the teacher about homework before class ended

You know there always be people who are willing paying any price for gil and other services that RMT bots are selling.

Also don't forget that most bots uses stolen credit card info to buy the new game + all expansions license and X amount of game time, so bots pretty much are always profitable even if did sell gil and other serives for loss when they didn't spend their own money.

Where is the source for this?

And i'm sure they're not doing anything beyond what they've been doing for years, namely nothing much. I doubt it would take 10 freaking years to come up with SOMETHING to attempt, so either they're wilfully ignoring it or are incredibly incompetent. Or their masters are keeping them from doing anything. Or it's not a problem in JP servers, so it's not a problem. Who could ever tell? SE could, but they won't.

Or they do make changes to the system and then the bot programs find ways around it, just like in every other MMO out there. FFXIV doesn't have an exclusive bot problem. WoW is just as bad.

Unless there's enough demand there won't be a profit for the bot farmers. Supply and Demand. The goal is not to eradicate RMT, but to reduce it.

Easy solution is to stop RMT at its source by eradicating known bot farms, causing the gil prices to skyrocket and make players not want to buy the gil at inflated prices.

Eureka easily makes up over 50% of RMT gil in the game due to how easy it is to obtain, a single character botting for 24 hours could easily make 10m a day. Multiply that by 40... and you have one of the most profitable bot farms in the game.
