[Cash Shop Idea] Game Time Token

[Kosmos992k]

That's kind of the point - right now, the token would only be bought by rich crafters, because the economy is set up to shove gil from the DoW/DoM classes where it is majorly generated to crafters and from there, it trinkles back to Gatherers and to a limited degree DoW/DoM via crafting materials. Crafters are the gil sponges of the game and this token idea serves only one purpose - to allow crafters to not just sit on that money but actually buy something useful to them with it.

You could just give active crafters a permanent subscription discount, same deal. (Well, and increase the average subscription of a non-crafter in the process to cross-subsidize, someone's got to pay after all)

Excellently thought out reply, I agree completely. RMT is RMT, and RMT is prohibited.

Thank you for seeing and acknowledging my concerns and that i dislike it out of principle. I've been trying to get people to see the reasoning behind that. **snip**
We should not address the RMT issue by legalizing it. There is always going to be someone who will abuse the system. This is why i mentioned (on several occasions) that i'm not against gifting game time through the mog station, as long as it cannot be sold for in game currency or bought through it.

I cannot (and never will) agree with any forms of RMT. Truthfully, i also cannot stand it when people condone it for reasons mentioned earlier within this thread. Of course, I've made this known through my posts. This is my honest opinion and i will stand by it.

I agree with you. Unfortunately being principled seems to be very out of fashion these days, while personal enrichment at the expense of others is very much in fashion.
