It would be great for Chocobo Blinkers to stack to 99.

Oh yeah, I forgot people can't pick up on sarcasm without a sarcasm tag.

(Especially considering it's quite obvious the OP was referring to gil making, not doing the actual OP.)

Is that "I was being sarcastic but suck at it" or the "I'll say I was being sarcastic because I look stupid now"?

Text doesn't carry inflection.

I caught the sarcasm though. Maybe cause i live and breathe sarcasm in my daily life tho.

I foresee a debate tho in this thread about weather he meant it or not and completely derailing the thread. I have heard alot f people say gil is useless, i really wish theyd send it to me cause i still have uses for it.

I have sworn before you and Almighty Altana the same solemn oath our forebears prescribed nearly ten years ago.

The world is very different now. For Adventurers hold in their mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of Chocobo displacement. And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around Vana’diel - the belief that the rights of Chocobos come not from the generosity of the Duchy, but from the hand of Altana.

We dare not forget today that they are the heirs of Gyshal Greens. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Adventurers - born in this century, tempered by Void Watch Drops, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace between Beastmen alike, proud of our ancient heritage - and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those Chocobo rights to be lead and given Blinkers on a timely basis so they may arrive safely to their destination!

Let every developer know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any lost Chocobo, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of navigating Chocobos.

This much we pledge. My fellow Adventurers, rise up and greet the world ahead, that we may not look on the Chocobo Blinker as a worthless item, but as a tool to the survival of this majestic creature! Abolish the limit of twelve Blinkers and allow for ninety-nine to be provisioned at one time. Square-Enix, ensure our success to help Chocobos everywhere!

FFXI is going back to old ways, old ways = nerf any means of making gil that's easy. Don't remember when they nerfed the NPC prices of weapons from mobs in castle O? or nerfing the npc prices of Bird Blood etc?

It's so that don't have to make as much content. Pretty lame but understandable considering how old the game is.

They did that to combat RMT but it ended up hurting legit players. I honestly can't see them nerfing blinkers, and if they do there is still cells and cruor gear.

I don't see them changing it either way.

They probably won't increase the stack size because they're a low-man dev team (that or lazy) and have other things to work on. It would be really nice if they did it however :\ It really is time consuming.

Nerfing the gil you get from blinkers after people have been selling them for over a year would be a horrible thing to do. Nerfing a way to get gil such as blinkers would be something to do immediately when it was deemed to be a problem, not after many people have banked off of it. And anyway at this point, voidwatch has cruor sinks of cells and atmacites that help keep people from dumping too much of it.
