Do you think sell groups are hurting end game community?

I don't really care what you believe my goals in the game should be. An MMO, this one especially, has several avenues of advancement that individuals could consider their goal. And seeing others use gil and/or real money to circumvent any effort or skill normally required lessens the accomplishment for all those that complete it, since onlookers can't correlate the accomplishment with the skill/effort anymore.

Some people work pretty hard to earn their gil. I know a couple people who are solely focused on crafting and playing the market board, and they have more gil than I can even dream of having.

Are they not allowed to buy a service with their gil?

A farmer in real life can grow his or her own crops and have a sense of accomplishment that they grew their own food. But does that make people with different jobs who buy food at a supermarket any lesser?
