Yeah... I think they get it by now. It's all that has been here for the past week or so. At this point it is just an annoyance to everyone else. "Demanding" a response is kinda laughable actually.

Based on my experience with the people I associate with on a daily basis + the sheer amount of topics on the subject. Go read them its not just mine of course.

How bout you ask people in game too? Forums barely scratch the surface of total players. And I mean everyone, not just friends and FC mates.

"Based on my experience with the people I associate with on a daily basis" read up. That includes real life + people I interact with on my server.

Personally I support this thread and all others against the cash shop at this point. They stated that they would never add anything pay to win to the cash shop and while I know it wasn't their intention they have given players a legit way to buy gil from other players at the moment.

If buying gil is not pay to win then I don't know what is, gil allows you to do literally anything in this game, from buying wins/gear from wins to leveling/gearing up every job in the game faster. Prior to this patch the cash shop did not bother me because there was no pay to win crap in there but buying gil is where I draw the line.

To me this needs to be changed asap and SE needs to make some announcements regarding the future plans for the cash shop. Nothing bugs me more than a lack of transparency for a service I'm paying for and if this game is headed towards a direction that I consider pay to win I'd rather stop paying for it now and just wait until it goes free to play. Some people might not agree, but I've been supporting this game since 1.0 alpha and quite frankly I'm tired of the lack of transparency.

I didn't ask for answers.

These forums form a very very small amount of the player base, Alot of people only come on here when they have a problem...

You are not raising awareness, as everyone is AWARE of the cash shop and have their own opinions on it. As can be shown on ALL the other threads "Raising Awareness." Unless you mean raising awareness of your own condemnation. If that's the case, just post on one of the other threads.

A lot of people who have a problem don't come here at all as well so you don't speak for the people anymore than the OP or anybody else does.

So far every friend I talk to in this game is pissed off about the countless players in PF selling bracelets for 5-10 million gil. At 10 million gil people are getting gil at half price ($2 per million) and at 5 million they are paying the same price that I see advertised constantly in game.
