How Gil Sellers / Buyers are doing business (SE Please Track and Do Something)

You clearly have no concept of reality. If you seriously think any business would throw away nearly £50,000 a month of subscriptions maybe you should try to reconnect with the real world.

I'm not going to argue with you. You're free to believe what you want. I, however, have faith that SE cares more about the hundreds of thousands of subscribers that very vocally despise RMT than a couple hundred subscribers that constitute the RMT population.

Anyway, happy gaming.

I am just as a vocal about RMT as the next person if not more. Why do you think GM's don't even have the power to remove obvious Gil sellers, the ones who are at market places sometimes for days on end. If SE were serious about this type of thing don't you think their security team (which by all accounts consists of about 5 people) would just take a look at the market places every now and then and remove the offending avatars. It's not rocket science. Maybe you should do a bit more research before you start replying with your arrogant "take off your tinfoil hat" comments.

The thing I am most baffled about when it comes to RMT in this game is who are they selling to? Like money is worthless in this game for the most part, why would you spend real money for worthless in game currency? FFXI I understand even if it is wrong to do it, but here? Lol.

probably some of them, yeah. but i think people who buy kills will also buy gil. it's both the same: pay to win instead of playing the game. i will not say ALL people who buy kills also buy gil, but i think the majority of them, of course, there are not many people who have enough legit earend gil who can afford to buy kills. so we have a few super rich crafter and people who buy gil...

and the people who sell kills know exactly where the gil is comming from...

SE can claim whatever they want (in case RMT bans). However, until they prove it, means jack to me, especially when I can still see the same gatherer bot more than 2 years later in the same spot with the same POS starter gear at level 50.

Yup, this. I don't even bother to Aetherial Reduce anymore, Sands are too cheap for any Profit. That even goes for Fishing as I see the same Fisher over and over catching Pteranodons, Caimans on the same Spots :x

RMT makes enough money. They just eat cost of periodically paying for new accounts as a cost of doing business.
