Elitists and the problem with the FFXIV community

[Academic]

It was an honest mistake

how is that a mistake? it's real.

my mistake, semi-related: wandered servers for quite a while past launch because i have a friend here on hyperion but it took me forever to be able to create a character here. being a bit of a "career" tank, i made a toon here with both classes now at 22. figured it would be cool to craft all my own HQ gear as i get to the levels for a new dungeon that way i wouldn't be all like, unprepared for queueing randoms. get a bunch of people selling 99 of crafting mats on the market when i need like, 2. economy sucks. obviously very few give a flying rats that people are leveling and may not have that kind of money quite yet.

Just putting this out there, but Supply and Demand really do dictate that kind of stuff depending on what you're buying. The economy does suck, because there's not many ways to make decent gil. However, if you catch things like Ores at the right times, their prices plummet and you can get most of them for less than half the normal prices.
