To me, the widest misconception out there, by players and developers alike, is that people on legacy servers run around farting golden clouds of gil. There is more gil on legacy servers, yes. Most of it is concentrated in the hands of a very few super rich and RMT bank accounts. The rest of it? That's gill we EARNED. By PAYING for a subscription in 1.0, and EARNING that gil with our time and effort. It STILL has been hacked to 10 percent of what it was, and it's STILL being deemed 'too much' by the powers that be?

The fact that they are using CONTENT in the game as a means of wealth equalization is unbelievable to me. They have no right! We earned that gil in the first place! Why do they think they are entitled to charge us more, for the same exact content, just because we HAVE more?

And finally, as I said above, all of that is speaking generally. Concretely, so many legacy players have no more and no less gil than on non-legacy servers; especially those who chose to create new characters on legacy servers to play with friends. They are now being punished unfairly simply by association.

I'm getting tired of this trend that the players are having to take it on the chin for this game's problems. Server latency? Fix it, not zoom out. You've got RMT? I'm so sorry for you, do something to stop it. There are rich players in game? Who cares? It's not the developer's jobs to be great socialist equalizers, its their job to deliver content to their players.

Start doing it.
