The #1 Question Asked For The Letter From The Producer:

[Starlord]

I'd say make the gilsellers come up with at least better names. I am sure you can right in a code that won't allow "faceroll" names :P.

[AreeyaJaidee]

What I don't understand is, an mmo is social experience, why are ppl buying gil instead of asking friends to help them get started making gil. It seems like it would build the community up more if ppl relied less on quick fixes and more on their buddy to the left or right.

I got an idea. Show of force. Everyone just keep making threads titled stop RMT (or something of that likeness). Fill the whole forum up with them until the devs reply. Even if you're not personally having an issue with it, let's do this as a community, because it is big issue on many servers.

I would participate, but the next ban I get will be a permanent one. I've been banned once for something somebody else said, once for calling somebody ignorant, and the third ban seems to be permanent no matter what the infraction is. So I'd rather not take my chances with spamming the forum.

You might want to be careful when you advocate a flood attack on a forum, admins tend to take a very dim view of that. I know I do.

I know the gil sellers dont usually pick sea wolves but lore-wise they're pretty on point with their names. :P

Meanwhile you can do this.
I haven't been getting any tells lately, now you just needs to block out those pesky friend requests somehow...

No offense but the #1 Live Letter question was actually this one:

When will we be able to (fully) share our personal house with our Eternal Bond Partner and/or have settings allowing others (friends/FC members) use of any/all amenities?

RMT seems to be a trending issue. Is there any more aggressive counter actions you plan to take to stop RMT?

RMT spam seems to be a large problem, is there any plans to be more aggressive on this front?

(63 likes)

I totally agree about RMT and did "like" both of those posts, and yes I did post the EB House sharing post myself. When I saw the title of this thread I was just hoping that was what it was about.

Worse is that they didn't answer any Forum Q&A but just did their own thing. I hope we get some answers about these other issues sooner rather than later.

This is exactly why they rarely pull questions from the NA threads. If those latter 63 people had simply upvoted the first post, it would have had 125 likes. Instead, we just like to repeat post for some inane reason and dilute the votes.

It was more likely the same people liking 2 posts, not 2 separate groups of people. Which is another problem that happens often on these forums. "My smn pet's suck thread got 50 likes!" "Hey mine got 70! There must be 120 players that SE doesn't care about!"

So often times you get the same people patting each other on the back over the same threads while thinking that the number of threads is somehow relevant and not just a sign of how bad people are with the search function.
