Why not to do well in the game

That would be the first I've heard of such a problem. Quite the opposite, SE has shown a propensity for blanket bans on players who have high gil stocks regardless of whether they were involved with anyone accused of RMT activity.

So what is to prevent SE from looking at a fc's savings for an FC, trumping up the charges of an accusation, and robbing the whole FC's savings' blind?

and they would benefit from this how? Really think about it, what would SE gain from taking your gil?? Nothing because they can make their own.. push a button BAM insta gil cap. Think first...

It didn't stop them from taking away the Gil of various crafters that sold their wares on the AH. There is also the fact that SE making Gil isn't really related to their actions in taking Gil.

They probably did that because those crafters were botting and possible RMT activities.

Person X creates a character and three days later has all crafts at 50. Give me a break. You could watch it on the forums and see the rampant botting in game. Then the crafters act like they were just innocent victims, because they didn't RMT... while they DID bot as fast as their little programs would let them.

I especially love the ones that the FC mates fed the bots materials, so they could run 24/7 and then posted congratulatory posts on the forums about the "achievement" of having the first 50 or first person with all 50s like a day or two after release.

Botting/Rotating Play Shifts/ or Meth. You choose which they did.
