How many people are REALLY still playing Maplestory?

If the case of getting caught by Nexon:

Botter: gathering proof/prooves>ban.
FM spammer: gathering proof/prooves->ban.

In the case of getting reported by a player.

Botter: Nexon viewing the report->checking game logs to see if the player has really done it->ban if the player is guilty, else no ban.
FM spammer: Nexon viewing the report->checking game logs to see if the player has really done it->ban if the player is guilty, else no ban.

now that I have finally deciphered his syntactically ambiguous statement, I'd have to agree with him. It really is an easier process to ban the FM spammers than the botters. You don't have to hunt spammers down, they come to you. All you have to do is save a chatlog and then ban.
With botters you have to track down the character who may or may not automatically change channels once you get there, and then you have to collect video evidence that shows without a doubt that hacks are being involved (as opposed to just severe lag or something).

Plus, to just permaban only the spammers is easier in another sense. Ban an account with just a level 10 character on it, and they'll just make a new account. But if you ban that level 201 character botting in Singapore, you risk the possibility that they will submit a ban appeal ticket, which will have to be reviewed by CS, which means you'll just be creating more work for your department.
