STOP the Gil Selling Tells PLEASE!

[DragonFlyy]

People wont stop until you severely enforce rules or reduce the means to monopolize. A way to do that is Limit the highest sell rate on markets to 1 mil. same as trades. And put higher minimum prices on items for sale to NPC's. The value of Gil to RMT will be ruined and regular players can now start to afford regular mats etc. If RMT continue to persist you then put all major base mats for sale via NPC vendors.

Eventually they'll just leave.

It worked in FFXI but they made it way too easy.

FFXI has no RMT? Could've fooled me.

Also, the only true way to stop RMT is to remove trading. There is no other way. Even if you put every material on an NPC, it would just cause something else to drive up the cost on the MB. Maybe we should just do away with the MB and let people buy directly from NPCs? Oh wait, then RMT will be used to buy from NPCs, but gil would be worthless at that point so we should just put all items for sale on the NPCs but they all cost 1 gil. Of course, even if you make it so people can't trade, there will still be RMT for leveling services. So take out levels, make it so when you create a character you are handed max level gear, max level character and unlocks to everything in the game. There, now no more RMT.

Your not going to get rid of RMT but you can ruin the items that they try to sell to make players pay 20mil for a sky pop item cus they claim bot back in FFXI.
RMT are less prevalent in FFXI than in FFXIV because they changed how the system works. It used to be WAY worse.

I am saying there needs to be a player gil cap of 100mil held at any one time so that's 500mil if you use retainers + pay for 2; total 5. And the trade limit... market board or otherwise... 1 mil only (not including tax). This will limit a lot. The guild chest could have a limit of 100 mil as well.
Next raise the item to npc sell price accordingly.
