The hackers create lots of accounts at a time and have thousands of level 1 characters ready at any given time.
A 2 week trade ban would do nothing to stop them.
That's ignoring that it would just create a new and constant influx of "wtf why can't I drop anything stupid nexon why am I tradebanned I didn't do anything wrong?????????" posts.
As it stands there are already more than enough "anti bot" measures in place that do more to hinder legitimate players than they do to stop bots. Something as extreme as a two-week trade ban(which includes dropping things btw, Beef) will do nothing but frustrate new players. And herein lies the problem: how do you curtail bots in ways that don't completely hamstring and even wall new players? It's not a question with a simple answer.
You pretty much described the point of Reboot, and why it doesn't needs the extra lines. The last part specially is where the difficulty comes from, and if you are lacking then you get a party. Mobbing is not that important, or difficult anymore so its not a good point of comparison.
With all that being said why don't you go to the normal server instead? With trading and a bit of luck you can get to the same amount of progression you had in Reboot in a short time, for free.
Mobbing is the only point of comparison because everything else is the same. Like I said, difficulty is not the problem. It's completely irrelevant. You can master a boss's patterns but it's not going to do you any good if your party doesn't have the damage to take it out within the time limit. From what I've heard, Reboot is literally, completely unable to defeat the Black Mage.
I've played non-Reboot since before big bang. I've already said why I don't like it. I'm not going back.
