But I guess that's what you get with a zero transparency policy.

If no action will be taken we will have our answer guys (we kind of already do but ok). I'm not here trying to tell anyone what to do, but I myself (as a hardcore crafter/seller since basically 1.0) am done with the market board. I am unsubbing my retainers not holding any gil. I know SE won't even notice but whatever, this is where I draw the line. I am not going to waste my time and compete with automated scripts any longer.

Peace
Thanks Prrringles.

I am at that stage as well. unlike some who comment, who seem to feel the ONLY reason crafters complain is because it cuts into their "massive profits", one in particular we all know very well from their comments, I view the market as my version of 'pvp' because in theory, you are trying to outcompete other PLAYERS. the gil is secondary. once player who bot can compete, just like in pvp, it takes anything out of it since the cheaters are prevailing. at least in pvp they usually get banned... possibly

being told that you are only after gil and if you were a real crafter to find another market where there arent bots (hard to do anymore) is like telling an F1 driver that competing in go-cart races is the same as F1. its insulting, and is just burying their head in the sand about the problem.. or being part of the problem all together.
