Here's how people made millions in 1 month, my story.

It wasn't about the gil. The way it went down is: I was reading about the leave exploit and realized how easy it would be for SE to just look at character data and see if someone used it. Then I remembered Scare's post about the gil in log. It seemed pretty high so I thought OMG finally got proof!
So I rushed to get some confirmation and that's where the wheels fell off my bus.

No worries, I expect most of us here have royally put their foot in their mouth before, I know I have!

Now... back to begging for a Human GM to investigate our accounts :P

You realize I was selling mats and got rich selling that hundreds of players? It's impossible for me to check where their 30k came from since 30k is pretty easy to get.

If you sell a car 20 000$ and it's bought with dirty money they will take back the 20 000, probly open an investigation if it happen often but they won't take 99% of the money you made so far along with it...

Stop whinning, you get what you deserve after ripping People off with Prices no one with a working brain would ever pay.
Minning DS is just one Click and you get 15DS per Spawn, respawn is each hour. Lets say you sell each for 10k so you get with this Prices 150k for just one spawn and this every hour, are you mad or something? This Prices where insanne and im very sure if you dont start on a legacy sever most of them was bought from People who bought RMT when it was sold the first days. You get what you deserve, so shut up.

Being the cheapest and selling on an open market is ripping people off? news to me.

I'm sure Kevin forced people to buy his items on the market board...

If you need to RMT to get 30k as a lvl 50 your doing something horribly wrong...

Why can't people come up with at least decent arguments? I guess the DoW and DoM selling grade 4 materias at 60-80k or tome mats at 40-70k was perfectly fine then ? Who the heck are you to decide what kind of prices are fine when you're the first setting it and have no clue how much to ask for? I just guessed a price since I was server first and it selled faster than I could mine them plus you only get 9 ores per hours from lvl 46 to 49. If you play 6 hours per day that's 54 ores for a whole server or 108 if you're 50.

Guess that's just one of these post with someone crying he's not rich while others are....

Lol even if it only where 9 That you get while lvling you mining. Every Child knows that 10k for something what only needs you 2 clicks and seconds to get is to expensiv when you need a whole time longer to get these amount of Gil throw Fates, Quest, Leves or whatever. And the others you mentiont are not better, just modern Onlinerobbers are you guys like you nothing more.^^

1 Dark Ore is never more worth than 1k Gil and even this is to high. But hey thx to the Botters People like you cant rip of the customers anymore. XD

I am amazed someone could pull out so much idiocy in only 1 post. *Slowly step back with my food from this obvious troll*

blah blah ... that's why ur ores are worthless now because there is not enough gil generated by players because everyone is practically 50 and not everyone wants to waste game time playing a botanist or a miner.

So that's called quantity demanded (slightly different than actual demand but this isn't ECON 102 so I'm not going there). Now let's talk supply. The other reason why the ores are not worth as much is because more people have leveled miner and thus the amount of ores available has increased. With more ores on the market, the sellers have lowered their prices (generally called undercutting) to move their personal supply faster instead of waiting for them to sell at the current price.

As such, what we're seeing is the anticipated result of an economy where there is a high supply but a low demand. The prices go way down because the suppliers are willing to sell at a lower price.

I...I'm sorry. But it seems you have missed all the levels you have to go through to get to the level you can mine DS.
Same with the grade 4 materia. These guys are spending their time farming for materials to spend time to spiritbind with them to play the lottery to convert that material into grade 4 materia.

But I suppose any kind of innovation to getting gil other than what the system provides (which is very little and often times you pay more for repairs than what you get from doing fates, quests (which do end), and leves will ever provide) is "online robbery."

Yup and people asking for help in the technical forum get helped out by players most of the time.
