Botters already in full swing

[LessLoveLess8]

I used this yesterday on my realm to report the 8 bots in the East Shroud by the Honey yard. I included all 8 of the bot character names, the time, etc. When I checked back a few hours later they were still there. It does not seem that it would e that hard for SE to follow-up on reported bot activity. And as someone posted above, these 8 bots are in effect preventing 8 real customers from playing when the world is full. My gut feel is this is the tip of the iceberg. I think we as a community need to deluge the in-game tickets with these reports every time we see this kind of bot activity.

I know for me personally, I can understand the server issues that SE has had during the launch and will not let those issue affect whether I subscribe or not. But the bots are a different story. If they don't address this quickly I won't be subscribing.

GM's? i havnt seen one post from SE in almost any thread on the forums. Why would GM's be any different?

Unfortunately I have to agree with you. However, the bot issue, IMHO, is worse for the long term health of the game than the initial server issues. But then again, what do I know.

That sucks no one responded. I'm sure SE has a lot of issues to deal with right now though. It seems SE is very overwhelmed with the response. That tells me there are very few employees in the FFXIV house trying to handle the flood.
