Botters already in full swing

[NoEmpathy]

On my server Fearie botters are already popping up in parties... today we had a bunch of people standing around watching a group of botters who where grinding in a corner in Eastern Thanalan for days on end they where in their high lv 20's all with lv 1 gear on still.. lol and when they all died to a fate i noticed an idiot raising them unless it was someone they knew.. regardless they have been grind botting for days on end lol.. wonder if they plan on putting in any anti bot tools or if they will just be free to roam and later we will find a group of lv 50's with lv 1 armor and completly dumb on their class because they didnt earn it or worse bought the characters from soemone botting chars up and selling them

SE was aggressively anti-botting and anti-RMT in FFXI once it became clear that players generally despise botting/RMT and started taking their subscription money elsewhere. Hopefully they'll be more proactive in ARR and hammer this particular nail down before it works itself loose.

I mean no disrespect by this, but can you confirm this? Like, how did you know? To be fair, what if it was me? what if i just decided to be lazy and not waste money on gear until around 30-35?

Funny how there are so many posts about booting afk people, yet no one wants to have a reporting system for RMTs who spam the game to make money in RL.
