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

[Duuude007]

SE knows it's happening and allows it to happen with zero repercussions or any plan to change the situation in the future. That tells me pretty much everything I need to know about their intent.

Um, no. lol.

RMT and other illicit activities upset the balance of the game and, as such, are prohibited under the Terms of Service.

Because we have confirmed the existence of players who are engaging in these illicit activities, we have taken the actions listed below.

Time Period: Feb. 26, 2015 to Mar. 4, 2015
- Accounts receiving disciplinary action for RMT advertising: 463
- Accounts receiving disciplinary action for RMT/illicit activity: 2,182
- Action Details: Permanent ban from FINAL FANTASY XIV

- Accounts receiving disciplinary action for participation in RMT/illegal activity: 17
- Action Details: Temporary ban from FINAL FANTASY XIV

Players who discover any confirmed cheats should, under no circumstances, exploit or disseminate such information. Instead, we ask that players file a report by using the in-game command [System Menu] -> [Support & Information] -> [Contact Us] -> [Report Cheating].

We will continue to take stringent disciplinary action against any accounts with confirmed involvement in RMT/illicit activity; players should take care to steer clear of any activity that violates the Terms of Service.

They said that people should not participate in this form of real money trade, and if continued to be exploited as such, they would make game adjustments, likely to prevent trading the wrist items at all. (and that would be a serious bummer to those who have traditional ways to express affection. Thanks to RMT if it happens.)

After that warning, anyone who does can be accurately considered participating in "RMT or other illicit activities".

A bannable offense.

But nice try implying that people are being granted permission simply because they are told not to do it. That is incredible logic there.
