Third-party Tools Can Negatively Affect Players Not Using Them

Just C&D the XIV Quick launcher devs. Simple.

The issue isn't that they can't, it's that they won't.

There's just no incentive to do so.

If people pressure you to use 3rd party mods or admit to using 3rd party mods themselves, you can report them for that. That includes requests for logs. By reporting such people, you clean things up a bit. By going along with it, you allow it to propagate. The choice is yours.

Who even asks for logs? You can just look those up on your own lol.

Yeah well, prog point liars are far lower than even the most egregious 3rd party users in my book.
The same thing has happened in every MMO since the dawn of time, if the devs don't give the players the tools, the players will create them for themselves.
Want people to stop asking for logs for very difficult massive time sink content? Add prog point checkpoints by phase for PF recruitment or the log asking will continue.

I'm tired of these cheaters always trying to justify their cheating saying it has no impact on others when it does. They have an overwhelming advantage over console players and those that don't use cheats.

Cheaters does have an impact so many times I lose queue in roulette cause these cheaters can see what dungeon/trial is popping with their cheats so they can withdraw. Making me wait in queue longer.

These cheaters are just as bad as rmt if not worse. Cheaters also cry the loudest saying there is no content or stuff is too easy yet they can't do anything without cheating.

Ironically this is what affects every "normal" player, because top logs have a lot of auto-rotation users which push the median numbers up.

People who request logs are generally recruiting on discord, which you cannot report them for as it's not in-game. Nobody is asking for logs in a random PF. They can just look them up or install a plugin without ever saying a word.
