Come back for Free weekend to find 3 million gil gone. Not happy

[Jilse]

My only question is why there is nothing in any of the OP's posts about SE reaction to the issue. I would assume the FIRST thing one does when it appears you are missing 3 million gil is think your account was hacked and contact support. I would not jump right into SE stole my gil, so I am quitting. Contact support, get some answers. Flaming the company on open forums will not solve your problem.

that 3 million gil was saved up from story line, quests, and walking almost everywhere (rarely spent money on teleports).

What story & quests were you doing? Mine gave me nowhere near that level of money?

Sorry this happened to you OP but as others have said, try to contact SE support and sort it out with them. It's the best chance you have of getting your gil back.

[BootyHunter]

please,look forward to it

What the hell makes you even think SE took your money? Unless you bought from RMT sites, you most likely got hacked.

What do you do with 3 mil gil anyways? There's no proper gil sink except FC housing at the moment. I understand your frustration, but of all the things you could've possibly complained about, you choosing your gil is ... funny.

By the way, gil is easier to get now. 3 mil doesn't take long to get back.

That's not true. Gil is still pretty nice to have for things like materias for starters. Some are like 100k+ currently. But sadly, that's all that is worth anything. I have botany @ 50 Weaver @ 50 and Armorer @ 50 and still can't make money unless i make 2 star items. Which i can't HQ often so it's not worth it. And it sure is easy to get gil now.... Just wait in any city and an RMT will send you a tell with their specials for the day. The last sentence was sarcasm, incase you didn't know.

Yeah i tried contacting them when i first noticed my gil was gone. Tired to call them but like i said they dont work on weekends. when i found the right place to put in a ticket i did, and still waiting on a reply back.

Srry so many of you swear if someone had all that gil that they cheated and used an RMT, just because you were so careless with your gil. I live on a very fixed income so i wouldnt have the money to spend on RMT, nor would i want to if i did have the money. RMT makes no sense to me as it ruins the point of playing the game to earn things. Lets face it this game hands out so much stuff to you, actually working for something yourself makes it that much more of an accomplishment.

To me the ones that always claim others are using RMT, are the ones trying to take the heat off themselves cuz they are doing it. Isnt that how this world works now a days? If you dont believe i made that gil legally, then thats on you. as i said not everyone cheats in games, and those that know me on the server and in my FC know im not that type of person to do something like that.

I'll prob log on a little today just to see if anything else is missing. Im assuming SE had to take the gil, because like others have said why would hackers leave any gil at all behind. Yeah i came here to vent, thats what forums are for. Forums arent just for all praise and happy talk.

i knew when i made this post i would get a ton of hate. lets face it thats all most of this current community is about it seems. Kinda miss the days of FFXI... seems like the community there wasnt as harsh as it is now. Then again i never had an issue like this happen on FFXI, and i played that game for 3 years straight.

Holy crap you folks are awful. I know this community is rubbish by this is really bad. Why hasn't anyone actually told him any of the reasons it could be gone instead of being little asshats about it?

Why? Well...

1) He's most likely lying and never had 3M gil saved. As someone else points out, it is 10x the quest rewards.
2) He's most likely lying and spent the gil before leaving.
3) His account was compromised due to his own RMT use, making it his own fault for being hacked.
4) His account was compromised because there's a keylogger on his PC, or he shared his password with his friend or his mom or his friend's mom, making it his own fault for being hacked.
5) His account was compromised through no fault of his own, because it's not like the game is 100% secure, you know SE is the last to admit to a hole or breach and may not even be aware of such, and targeting the company is far more lucrative for hackers than targeting individual users leading to such attacks becoming more common.

I had planned to come back when the PS4 version comes out. Now theres no point. i have about 250k on me now. what the hell am i supposed to do with that?

The same you would do with 3M... ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
