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

lol im getting heat from someone who played the easiest of classes, archer. talk about a walk in the park... you should be sitting on a ton of gil...

You keep bringing up the fact that you think all of the people responding to you don't have any gil and are jealous of what you claim to have acquired. That's not the issue. The issue here is that you're claiming to have acquired a significant amount of gil via a method that makes such a number impossible to reach based on what you have admitted to doing.

Main story and side-quests, taking gil rewards, dungeon coin pouches and random drops that get sold on market board/npc'd will not net you 3m+ unless you get VERY lucky with your drops (i.e. Coliseum gear, random spiritbonded materia, etc).

Also, don't get me wrong, I'm not implying that you bought RMT gil, but as other people have stated, if you sold things and people bought said things with RMT gil you're guilty by association and the gil gets seized.

Gil doesn't up and vanish. Something happened.

Either someone 'hacked' you and took it
You spent it and forgot
A friend that knew your password took it since you stopped playing

Blaming Square for this seems a bit childish. Square did nothing with your gil. You're gonna have to look elsewhere for blame.

lol im getting heat from someone who played the easiest of classes, archer. talk about a walk in the park... you should be sitting on a ton of gil.... when i talk to SE and clear this whole mess up i guess that will sever as my proof. only way ill come back to this game is if SE puts back the money they took from me

Im done arguing with yall. this community is full of childish kiss ass kids...

As a matter of fact, I am sitting on lots of gil (at least, more than you have, or I guess in this case, "had"). That's because I gather and craft, and then sell it. If you had said you do those for your gil I wouldn't have doubted your story. Citing running quests for 3 million gil just makes anybody that knows what they're talking about know you're full of shit. Still seeing no proof for your story, by the way. I think it's funny you need to resort to talking about what class I play, as if I only play one. Got anything to say that didn't work on you when you were being accosted in high school, poindexter?

I'll even get you started- check here, count up all the bags from the quests, and then come back here with a figure that's even 1 million gil, let alone 3. I know you're not going to, because in your words, "you'll get proved wrong and feel like a fool".

OP is an obvious liar. Rmt'd the gold or is just lying.

So either a liar or a cheating liar.

I wonder which game has the worst fanboy/whiteknight now between minecraft and FFXIV

it really is amazing how expensive teleporting gets....its like stopping by the store for a drink or a snack.....the next day doing it again...and again. it adds up. if only it weren't so dang convenient I'd stop teleporting everywhere and be rich. I have started waiting after chimera runs and similar instances for someone else to use a teleport and see if anyone goes where I'm going. Free teleports are the best.

how did u get 3 million with just questing and running around? :O 150k is about right the amount of gil u get from just questing 1-50.

[Aegis]

Yeah, we all remember why people were suddenly reduced to 10% of their gil. It's because they received RMT gil.

In some people's cases it's because they were server first crafters on non-Legacy servers and received that gil second-hand through others who bought it. For them I have sympathy.

For the OP who appears to not realise that the combined gil rewards for all the quests in the game in November was approx ~500k and wants to convince us that he got 3 mill gil through questing and being thrifty I have no sympathy.

You bought gil. SE took it away. You came on the forums for sympathy/ranting, but instead found people that laugh at your BS.

My heart goes out to you.

Edit: As for leves, if we take an (optimistic) average gil payout of 500gil per leve, it would take 5,000 of them to make up the additional 2.5 mil. At 8 per day (and assuming OP never did any lower level ones) that would be 625 days.

You're honestly better off contacting Square Enix on this instead of sitting here making a lengthy thread about it.

[Asakura93]

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?

You have 250k. That's still about 3x more than what I have, and I can live with my 80k. You'll live. Not like there's many useful things you can buy anyway.
