    They are decreasing your experience, though. Making money out of nothing (blinkers, lol) creates inflation, which basically makes all your gil decrease in value. For every gil RMTs generate, your gil is worth less.

    Of course, legit players generate gil out of nothing too, but with rmts, it happens faster, which leads to inflation increasing faster, which leads to your gil devaluing faster.

    I understand that, but it is part of the world we play in, a lot like homeless people in real life, ...... Some get taken care of, the majority go unnoticed..... It is what it is, but I've no time or patience to police our gaming population for rmt., s.e. notices 100s of mllion moving to and from any given character, they should look into it, send a tell, inquire what is all that gils purpose, and make decisions from there, I play to play, not crusade against people trying to make ends meet, (yall know the shouts, know how long it takes to farm 5mil, and think these people are getting real life rich? I dont think so, but maybe.).... Red inflation sucks, but I expect a mass banning of the unexplainable gil hoarders.... Soon, and their gil to be taken out..... Maybe, maybe not, but a crusade against them I am not, they are not why i play.

    In our wake will be smoke fire and burnt charred remains of those that have fell before us, We will not remember their names, as they are no more, the next challenge, the next horizon is what we strive for and Demand it be met with Ferocity, We Grin at the Possibility of death, Fear no Mob that walks Vana'diel or it's Realms, there is no tomorrow, there is only now, For pride, for honor, for Glory We are The Knights of Pegasus.

    SE polices RMT with their own bots. My account was suspended because a large amount of gil was traded. I contacted SE over the phone and the agent I spoke with told me that it was an automatic ban. I can't be certain because I wasn't the one who traded it, but my guess is that it was exactly two weeks after the trade.

    tl;dr
    SE uses programs to monitor trades and bots to automatically ban people who are flagged for 'suspicious activity'. Lazy as hell I know, but not likely to change.

    Yeah, the ban hammer.... I think I was max level 50 during the salvage-ban, and just after the auto banning, our shells patriarch Seiya, was taken hostage due to something similar... A casualty of the draconian policy, ..... I give em credit for trying, bur do think a person should have been involved in the decision..... Yes lazy, but it did need to happen...... In retrospect.

    Don't ban them then. One week suspension plus some form of penalty (-50% Slow attack for two weeks would be annoying enough to most), plus a strike against your account.

    I HAVE A BETTER SUGGESTION THEN BANNING PLAYERS.

    Make a special JAIL server Chaos and just throw all the busted RMT, and stuff on it. This is win win for everyone. It might even become a popular server.

    No one gets banned. They can make as much money as they want. SE still gets to keep the subscriptions.
