It's time to reevaluate the idea of adding a PLEX/Chronoscroll-like system to FFXIV

[Bishop81]

But it’s still “Evil” nonetheless. If you want to battle RMT, you will not be doing so by “legalizing” it. It’s because of people that are buying gil that the whole RMT business exists in the first place.

By adding a “PLEX”-system, you are basically “giving up” the fight and “joining them”. At that point the RMT business has won the battle.

I don't see the world in such black and white terms as "evil" and "good".

I pick the solution that provide the best possible outcome.

Anything that screws over the spamming RMT, reducing my spam, is positive from my point of view.

People are going to buy gil whether you or SE want them to or not - how else did you think those RMT companies survive for so long. This is a fact that you must accept. This is reality.
