Which is why i said earlier that there could be a cap probably around 5-10k

I feel like they need to enforce gil transactions more heavily.

Namely, new accounts should not be allowed to transfer large sums of gil because that's partly how the majority of RMTers are abusing the system. Their process is conducted strictly with expendable accounts because they know how easily they can get purged once they get found out .

If you want to look good and get tips, just refer to my guide:

The main problem with this is trading with a bard interrupts their performance which is kind of rude

This game has a enough problems with RMT. Don't need them exploiting a hypoethetical tip system.

Just like my money is precious irl, my money is precious in this game and i won't part with it. Nuff said.

how could they possibly exploit a system that lets you give at most 10k gold.

Playing devil's advocate, you mentioned using a text command to do it.

All you would need to do is do the text command once, then use the previous command function (up on the D-Pad on controller, no idea what it is keyboard) to quickly spam it over and over again. When you're capable of doing the command 2-4x a second, 10k adds up ULTRA fast. An RMT bot could feasibly automate the tips to transfer millions upon tens of millions within minutes.

Not saying your idea is bad, simply pointing out a flaw that would need protective measures built in. Even the slightest opening of an inch can give RMT and abusers a mile.

well yeah to enforce a 10k limit like i suggested there would be an amount of time before you can tip them again. After sending a tip, sending a second one will give you the message "you've already tipped this player" an hour or so later you could do it again

Yea but the problem with that is RMT will spam anyone and everyone who logs in with mail. It's bad enough that they spam the RMT shouts in the starting cities.
