The appeals of the main topic of this thread are these two things:
- Players are able to use real money to get some gils.
- Players are able to use gils to get some ingame time.

Even if it will completly destroy the economy, and is a terrible thing to do against the pace of the progression each player must experience, there is still benefits to it.

I fail to see any potential interest in your "middle ground" system beside a few exceptions such as "but... I want to pay for my girlfriend subscription!", which you can already do with your credit card and game time cards anyway.

You started by saying:

Well, if it can ease your concerns, I can guarantee you that nobody care about the ability of gifting game time using the Mog Station, in exchange of nothing.

Sure, it would be a nice little option for the very few people who'll use it... but it's still absolutly not in the range of a system like the one this topic is all about.
