Ban Hammer ahoy!
Square Enix continues to fight the good fight against cheating, botting, and illegal RMT with this latest round of bans.
We would like to report the termination today of multiple accounts held by players involved in the usage of third-party tools or cheats, or engaged in RMT (Real Money Trading) activities. Based on the results of our investigation, around 7,050 PlayOnline accounts were terminated while around 1,030 accounts were temporarily suspended. Additionally, we have increased the number of mass bannings against certain PlayOnline violations in order to prevent illegal acts.
Hard numbers and breakdowns were given over at WarCry.
