SE not banning Goldsellers

[Starlord]

Personally I haven't gotten a gilseller /tell /sh etc. Since Launch.

LOL SE might as well start selling Gil

Not only that, but it has even affected when I go into a dungeon and we're discussing how to defeat a specific boss.

Those dungeons are timed, not like we can say, "Oh hey, can we re-discuss everything again that took five minutes to do so? Why? I just got hammered with about 20+ /tell spams and it filled up my entire chat box so I can't see what you guys said, even with scrolling up."

I'm going to be the jerk that points out that the gil sellers are the only ones keeping the shard markets under control right now. While not important to stab-happy players, anyone who enjoys crafting or tries to sell crafted items on the market more or less enjoys the benefit of having cheap shards to buy up, even if they 'try' to avoid gil-seller listings.

Yoshi has consistenly cut off sources of general shard production (1.0 allowed almost all mobs to drop shards). Leves generally consume more shards than they produce, and the only source is generally going grindy-grindy on harvest nodes (which is what RMT bots have done for ages)

So.. while official company 'policy' is to pursue and persecute RMT botters, in reality, the spam is just a downside to the fact that they pay SE a subscription fee (and enough accounts generally translates to a bribe), and the general player-market doesn't want shard prices to shoot up ten-to-hundred fold because all the shard suppliers that kept all crafted item prices "reasonable" vanished and SE neutered alternative production methods.

Eliminate RMT, shard prices go up. Players rush out to farm shards since they're worth a lot more gil, shard prices go down.

Do a little more research before making another S**t stirring thread please.

People need to help SE by REPORTING the damn names not just blisting them and pretending they're gone.

By the way, OP, you must have been gone for a while because you can just right click the name to blist it. You don't need to type it in.

You are definitely exaggerating here, because you can't receive /tells in an instanced dungeon or trial. So don't even.

Not to mention, with retainer ventures just around the corner (TOMORROW!!! ) we'll be able to send them out to get crystals for us.

because I'm sure it'd be worth the time to send a retainer to go out for a few hours for a half-dozen fire shards.

[Gesser]

Except that they are... there are just so many & they keep spawning.

[Shadex]

Ah come on... it's not like we are paying a sub for this service.

*over shoulder* "Wait, I am what?"... "Seriously? $15?"

Yeah no excuse Square, get your act together.
