    Sorry, I am a endgamer. With that being said your point is moot to me. I don't need your help, I make my own way and help the people who need things done. What im stating is 1mil to 30 mil for a clear pt that's being charged is ridiculous in it's own right.

    No ones carrying me so when I say that people should help people(and some peoples ideas on "carry" are bordering ridiculous) I feel my time working to beat all content on multiple characters on a daily basis gives me the right to state that selling wins, though not something I white knight and hate on for, should indeed be bannable by the fact that everyone who gets to the point it's on farm refuses to help anyone else without getting paid, then yes, that's a bad system that should have stricter policies put into place to avoid it from happening. In my opinion of course. Sorry if this cuts down on your personal bank but there's many other ways to make gil.

    ***On a further note looking at party finder right now, I see 4 Fc's selling wins, 2 people selling crafting services and 5 pts for various EG content "ONLY JOIN IF YOUR FARM STATUS OR ILL KICK"
    In the odd times I see learning pt's out there and am in a "Let's help someone get a win" mood that I normally am at least once a day they never fill up because people refuse to help where they can charge a ridiculous sum of gil and make people who are likely good at the fight but unlucky to find a pt that can quite make it look bad, feel bad and so called, "carried". In my opinion, though it might differ from yours, yes.. this is a problem.**

    Endgame progress is earned, not given. This is also an MMO, so if you fail at properly networking with others, you're not going to get anywhere that requires more than 0 skill to complete.

    Hardly. Im saying refusing to help people learn without getting paid a ridiculous price for something many of them are able to beat and just cant get a feasible party of 7 other people to beat it with because someone would rather see them fail so they can cash in a paycheck should have repercussions. If there wasn't -such- a large gap between these two sides to a point people are quitting, it wouldn't be a problem but us small chunk of endgamers able to clear all the content aren't putting the majority of the money into SE's pocket, those casual people who -want- to learn and play are by far the larger chunk of gil for the company. In any case I didn't come here to argue with a Merc about my opinion who obviously would rather see people fail then teach them. With that being said
    I end my agruement with:

    Ah, but will facing north-by-northeast at 2:45 a.m. while the moon is a waning crescent result in a 27% increase in your chances to synthesize HQ mythril ingots!? That is real the question! ~Fernehalwes~

    If you spent hours and weeks and still haven't cleared, there is only one thing in common in all those runs.

    The one thing in common is that hours spent waiting and never getting a run started. And you see in the PF people selling T6-9 clears for 60 mil at the same time.

    OMG, I'm really holding myself not to be rude with you.
    I didn't spend hours and weeks actually DOING the content. 9/10 of that time was spent WAITING to form parties. And also, what kind of progression can you possibly expect when you never do more than 3 tries with the same people?

    Don't get forum banned because they say all sorts of crap. This is well known clear seller. See they said so themselves:

    They have a vested interest in making it difficult and demoralize people who are trying to clear without paying their bridge toll.

    They get their other 60% probably from RMT sales or buying up all the lots and they making people to pay them to relinquish the lots and other unethical and nefarious means that we don't even try to imagine.

    So what? Learning PFs stay unfilled because people with experience deliberately avoid the "casuals" right, since it is not for "casuals"? Obviously people can not make anyone do anything they don't want to, but to come to the forums and give the OP a hard time for point out the difficulties achieves exactly what? What we see that the hatred and contempt for newer players or newbies coming thru loud and clear.

    I find it entertaining you bothered to dig through my posts to find that. The other 70% (30+60=90...) is from crafting, but ok.
