Your desire to be insulting and use offense discredits anything you're saying. Sorry, and no offense intended here. And I've been playing since the NA release. Your behavior, which demonstrates both immaturity and a lack of understanding of economics, should signal to others to take your posts with a very large grain of salt. Being hateful and USING LOTS OF CAPS does not enhance your argument.
You're blind, no offense, if you don't see the impact abyssea has on the economy. Producing tons and tons of items that people can NPC for gil adds gil into the economy, whilst none is taken out. The only reason prices haven't skyrocketed is because there isn't that much worth buying these days. Producing gil has just as much effect on the economy as taking it out. It's not about who or where the gil goes to, it's about how much is produced and how much is removed.Abyssea has NO NONE ZIP ZERO effect on the economy. Why? BECAUSE IT IS FREE TO ENTER.
I fully understand the big picture. It is you who does not.
I'm really not sure why. You most likely won't need a whole LS full of people to help you anymore, because you can go more often with a small team of friends and still make progress just fine, and on top of that, you don't have to pay out 500k a run anymore. I don't see how this hurts anyone who was doing sponsored runs.The bottom line is that no one who was completing their relic through sponsored runs wants to see the system changed.
