The Market needs a listing fee or it'll never be a balanced and fair economy

I play on balmung, and I feel that you might have been slightly mistaken ^^;

He's not mistaken. You only play on a Legacy server.

Try playing on a server where everyone doesn't have a bunch of gil from 1.0.

You clearly aren't paying any attention to the rest of my post. Vintage HQ kite shields were selling for 10-12k~ now they aren't~

On your server.

They weren't selling like that on every server.

Gathering materia is selling for (dependent on materia type/level) anywhere from 3.5k to 50k a piece. You don't just grab any old item and expect it to make money~ you play the boards and work out the items that are really selling fast~

Again. Those values aren't the same on every server. And your solution to just play the game more often (or rather, camp the market boards for hours and not do anything else) isn't something people with jobs and lives can do, so it's no solution at all. You shouldn't have to camp the market boards for hours to make money.

If your server's market is really as bad as you say, then me thinks you should move server or shut up complaining. your choice to stay where you are~ Don't punish others because you want to make money without understanding a damn thing.

1. Nobody is being punished. You already pay a fee when items sell, but the fee should be for listing the item. The fee structure is designed wrong.

2. Not everyone can move to the same servers, as they have population caps.

3. The problem is with the game not having listing fees.

And before you insult people, you might want to not indicate you have no life outside of playing FF XIV. These games are meant to be a hobby, not the purpose of your existence.
