Hey look a spreadsheet of all the eureka bots!

[Jojoya]

And if the RMTs start to offer free gils in town to unsuspicious players to get them banned, how do you deal with that ? Just asking because there was a post about how the eureka bots did start to regen legit players in response to the former being MPKed by the later, so i don't think it would hard to replace the regen by free gils trades.

Why would they do that when that gil is how they make money? There's no benefit to them to trying to entrap innocent players. That becomes even more of a deterrent to anyone doing business with them.

The regen is a scripted action the bot is going to automatically do (they've been doing it for a few years now, we saw map bots doing the same when player map parties had their chests spawn at the same location) and there's no limit to how often they'll do it short of running out of mana. They're not going to program bots to automatically hand out free gil because they'll run out of gil to sell.

Well, just do like a lot of physical store out there, and include the cost of stoled items in the budget ? Except that instead of stolen things, it would be them handing free gils.

One of the most used argument for the bots crashing the market board is they don't care of selling prices, because everything is a gain since it is done automatically without any effort. Surely it isn't that far fetched to imagine them starting to hand over for free a few percents of the gils produced just to mess up with the way their customers are banned ?

You do realize that just a drop in the ocean, right? Look at the number of bot accounts that have been suspended or terminated.

That number is 26 when there are thousands of bots on each world. Lmao

Yes, i know, that it is not very much. And i hope, they will find some reliable methods to detect bots. Without things like root kit-like anticheat software.

Anti-cheat is not going to work. It has proven ineffective time and time again. What you need is real humans in-game observing the players.
