Botters Gonna Get Reported

[Daudr]

I seen the exact same thing in the same area on Sargatanas. Everyone has weathered bows and the same junk on waiting for something to get into aggro range.

No wonder legitimate customers are constantly getting Error 1017 and not even allowed to queue for the F@#$ing server.

Same on Cactuar. 8 archers, all still in their starter gear auto-targeting and attacking the same mobs in a swarm. They're just standing outside of Gridania, all picking the exact same target to hit with the exact same skill at the exact same time. Filed a report about it earlier.

Hopefully they do something about it.

I've been seeing gold sellers spamming their wares in just about every major city on ragnarok. So bots are most likely providing their gold.

I swear this ticks me off. Not only do they bog down the servers even more but in a matter of months they will have destroyed the in-game economy. I've seen it happen in FFXI and RO. The community needs to work together to capture these characters on video to report them and have them stamped out. Parasites.

Actually there is a website I wanted to report to SE that I came across when reading one of the prominent FFXIV forum fansites. It was a website dedicated to the creation of a multipurpose bot for FFXIV: ARR. Would love for SE to stamp down on them.

EDIT: Reported it to SE Support.

Did you guys check out my pics? They're not just botters, but they are dedicated gold/gil farmers from China or something playing on multiple computers or stations. They're probably using a bot too, I've seen this happened in 1.0, now there's going to be even more in ARR

Even if the bot program is used for leveling up a character with no intent at farming or monetary gain, it still shouldn't be allowed. The whole point of an MMO is to put time and effort into your character to get to the state you want it to be in. Not hire cheap computer labor to do it for you and cheapen the efforts of people who actually enjoy playing the right way.

In the old FFXI days I saw people actually selling max level characters with full relic gear to any scragg who would buy them. It really is a slap in the face to the creators of the game and us players alike when you have people like that running around.

How do you report? Received /tells from someone when a site for buying gill.

But honestly, this doesn't truly affect you.

it does if they are botting on a world that is full.

They ARE from China! Back in 1.0 when we had the high level Elementals out near Aetheryte camps, there was a shittle-ton of bots near the one Node south of Bloodshore. They were typing out English spellings of Chinese words. Another player (Lv50 DRG) sat there with me. We harassed the botters by yelling out in chat at them, making fun of them. We actually got one of the Chinese botters to speak English to us.

The guy and I (my one friend from my LS came along and all 3 of us stood there, even sat our characters down), watched as the Elementals all aggroed the botters and killed them. Then they kept coming back again, over and over. We sat there for 2 hours watching this go on, lol.

Im sorry to say it but another reason why pc players are always the ones to ruin/cheat on mmo's, no home training.
