Again i ask to Answer to my question:
That's the point.
The fact is: global economy won't be affected at all.
The real subject is: is it okay for someone to be able to get the gils of someone else in exchange of a real money service?

That said, the answers to the real question can't be considered as facts. They'll just be mere opinions of people ok or not ok with it.

[SUBJECTIVITY]

I'll give mine as an example:
I think that since FFXIV is not a competitive game, It's not very important if a single individual suddenly has access to something he/she wouldn't have normally. Would it be some 110HQ gear or a house or whatever gils can buy.

This game only has two competitive aspects: PvP, for which gils are worthless, and "First Time HL raid". For the latter, I'm pretty sure that the amount of gils within these hardcore gamers pocket is irrelevant.

So, in short terms, someone who suddenly has access to a lot of (-someone else-) gils, won't affect my playstyle at all. That person is just spoiling his/her own experience with the game, and I don't really care if that person is willingly doing so.
Plus, like I said, this is very much a temporary thing and the market for Eternal Bond plans will die quite rapidly.

Yep, that's pretty much my own opinion. I don't really care.

But again, that's just a mere subjective opinion, and I understand that someone can be frustrated to see another player getting something expensive without much effort (if you consider that getting real money doesn't require "much effort") when they had to spend hours farming or whatever to get the same thing.
But heh, the frustration someone might have is also completly subjective.
