Congratulations, survivors!

You guys aren't taking into account the huge amount of keylogged accounts that are getting exploited by RMTs.

Not too sharp at maths eh? lol

- Total Frozen Gil: Approximately 367,700 million Gil

Not even close to 1 billion.....

On topic - That's a huge sum of money.... May I suggest its ploughed into a casino in Costa Del Sol or similar location? I'd love to have a gamble now and again..
What is the Japanese stance on gambling by the way??

Ummm, what? 367,700 million gill is 367.7 billion gil.

Here, I'll break it down. Because I enjoy doing that.
A million has 6 zeros - 1,000,000
367,700 million would then have six zeroes added to the end of it - 367,700,000,000.
I think you can take it from here.

Oh come on, how come this maths became the focus?! I was actually trying to talk about how some "leftover" dirty gil will remain. I mean I know most would be confiscated but surely "some" remains in circulation..

Sorry! I have an inability to refrain from responding to stupidity. I'll be good now!

Not if they just ban everyone! Wouldn't put it past them to do it.

Wa, RMTers lost 10 million usd value Gil, my question is why still so many RMTers are out there. SE real need a better way to detect RMTers spam.

[ashikenshin]

some are saying that prices for a million gil went from 5 bucks to 30 bucks. If SE keeps doing this then prices will be so high that even lazies won't be able to buy gil. This is great news! f the lazies and I hope they get banned too.

The definition of a billion changes from country to country, eg:
1,000,000,000,000 = 10^12 = 1 billion in the UK and most EU countries, likely used elsewhere in the world in former colonies.
1,000,000,000 = 10^9 = 1 billion in the USA and some other countries where American culture is the norm/popular.

Please do not insult others when you yourself prove to be the one lacking in knowledge of a subject; you can check here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_and_short_scales for more info, kthx.

On topic: I've seen the same amount of gil sellers on my server... doesn't seem to have made an impact really, but I guess we'll just have to see! At least huge amounts of illegal gil was taken out of circulation.

Except that the player he is quoting specifically states that "one billion is a 10 digit number" which kind of throws your whole world metrics out the window.

No it isn't hahahahaha

1 billion is 1,000,000,000 A 10 digit number

Guess again

Thank god I know Japanese:
http://jp.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...19bc791d753bf7

"・凍結ギル合計：約3677億ギル"

1億 = 100 million
10億　= 1 billion
.
.
.
3677億 = 367.7 billion

"Total frozen gil: approx. 367.7 billion gil"

Can we move on now?

1. Goldsellers buy the game
2. Developer/publisher profits
3. Goldsellers make their money and pay off their game purchase in spades
4. Goldsellers get banned
5. Goldsellers buy another copy of game
6. Developer/publisher profits
7. Goldsellers make their money and again pay off their game purchase
8. Goldsellers get banned
9. Goldsellers buy another copy of game
10. Developer/publisher profits

And on and on it goes. Besides the 'bannings,' do you see another pattern? The one where the devs/pubs continue to make money?

Curious how these developers continue to pump out RPGs with items or commodities in them that ultimately result in RMT abuse.
Hmm..........
