Yes if you get caught (somehow) using programs such as the windower, a GM will ban you (AHAHAHA!!) while CGFs continue to monopolize NMs, MPK, Steal NMs, and bot all over Vanadiel.
Good Stuff.
Square Enix Policy Concerning Third-Party Tool Use
We have recently discovered some of our players to be using third-party "hacking" tools to move their characters instantaneously around dungeons and battlefields alike.
In FINAL FANTASY XI, the use of any software or hardware not provided by or approved by Square Enix is strictly prohibited.
While we make no specific official announcements regularly to this effect, we do in fact implement a variety of devices to counter such behavior with each version update, and we duly punish any and all players we find to be using such tools. In today's version update, we implemented counter-measures to address the irregular movement described above.
We can and will take further action as necessary against players caught using similar tools in the future as well.
Thank you for your cooperation, and thank you again for playing FINAL FANTASY XI.
