So my take for that is: keep it legal. Break the law and you're putting yourself at risk.
That's the point of a TOS, the FFXIV literally makes whatever in-game law they want to because it's their game. Outright RMT has been banned via the TOS since day one. They're simply not policing it.

And trying to say that people are "going around it" by linking to a discord first . . . That's like saying you're not paying for an escort, you're paying hundreds of dollars for a condom and the escort comes free.
