    Like i mentioned, been 2 weeks so far and its virtually impossible to sell my items or a matter of fact anyone else trying from 5pm to 2am ST (goes on allday but that's when im on.
    Whenever i log on, check retainer i see my items still there and his retainer nowhere to be seen. Within a minute recheck, his items are back up.
    I have no issue with undercutting at all, but i would like to know how someone knows within 2mins of my adjustment that this is happened when they are not in a zone capable of checking in the first place.
    I could clear 2mil a day easily, logging in placing items then going about my daily business but now im forced to check retainer whenever i can.
    Each item he sells is instantly resupplied, the profit has been destroyed by him. Easy 100k per item is now around 5-20k
    Now im starting to see him on all my other bread and butter items, from different crafts i might add.

    Well either he has the mats for it, and levels, or has friends working on it with him. I had a friend who was in college and him and his 2 roommates took turns playing 1 character. They crafted and gathered like no other. He could easily be doing the same thing. Or just have friends who gather for him. Who knows. But this not harassment and there's really nothing you can do outside of find a new craft.

    I can tell you the part that others have already told you, that what he's doing is legal within the game. However, the other part that no one has addressed and that you're focused on is whether or not you believe it's possible, the things that he is doing.

    In short, you're witchhunting for RMT/third party programs. If you believe he can't teleport to his home and that his house isn't located right next to a MB and the bell (which some are) and then can't go about back to his original business, then quit wasting the time of the forum peeps.

    Just report him and ask the GM team to find out if any fishy RMT/third party program business is happening. You already said it yourself that you didn't care about the undercutting, but you suspect that something more is at hand. Just GM it and if nothing changes, then nothing is wrong and he's just dedicated to selling his goods.

    The other guy probably thinks you are harassing him.

    But seriously. Incremental undercuts are the anemic lifeblood of the market board system. If you're going to get into it, you have to be ready for ruthless penny-shaving every minute of every hour of every day. I've been riding my retainer to sell gear that goes once every 24-36 hours. Competing sellers are not going to form a nice, orderly queue; they are going to snipe you hard.

    Still not harassment. And if you wanted to report him for some kind of hack you'd need a lot more than a gut feeling. Reporting someone because you THINK they might be cheating is not cool.

    Cheating is NOT harassment. Even you can't out right prove someone is cheating, if you have a gut feel that they are you have every right to report them, but do remember the GMs reserve the right to make the judgement call and they are busy as ever. Also they won't tell you what they did so you can not expect to know the outcome.

    I don't know, I feel like the kind of people who report everyone over everything just start witch hunts. "Man, X makes more gil than me! That must mean he buys gil! Time to report him!"
