We don't need anymore gil sinks

[Shuuli]

I only started a few months ago before the wow exodus and I never had an issue with Gil... I do not cheat and I do not run levequests AT ALL. I just farmed all the gwibs and ocassionally it dropped me the related scale/light/wings whatever material that I sold for 400-500k Gil per item.... For those who do not want to run these things over and over.

I personally think it is fair to ask for my time spent the Gil amount for those who do not want to suffer through a training group and learn the extremes.

In addition some people are just not taking time to learn the game to use marketboard properly.

Like how people sell items on the board below they actual market value. If you are a sprout and you do not understand that the item says it sells for 159 Gil (which would be the amount you get if you sell at a vendor) and you put that item up on the board for 89 Gil which will be even lower due the interest, then I am sorry bit it is your fault you are poor.
This is all about reading.

I dunno about cheating and bots. I never seen one thank god. But I hope these will be solved in the future.

I usually report any RTM activity when I see one to get rid of those people.

There are no poor people there are just people in the beginner phase and people in the advanced phase. By the time a sprout reaches level 80 they should be able to have a couple million gil just by farming extremes and selling the items on the board, if they really want to have money and can bloody READ.
In this case there is no social system but there are FC houses where you have a shared asset if you think about it like that. Your involvement in the FC will eventually result in you getting your share.
I am even part of a linkshell where we help each other out...

All you need to have in this MMO RPG that is (as in the type name) about playing with other people, IS, to talk to other people, be kind, work together. People are very helpful. I hear stories every day of people gifting exarchig gear or mounts/ or minions to others randomly. Not to mention when you enter an FC...

You simply can't, because unlike rmt those crafters are never in the open, they're hiding in private / fc house were no one can see them crafting for days straight never moving or anything.
You can't have hard proof that someone is using bots when it comes to that unless they talk about it.
The only one you can spot are the gathering ones, and they're obvious. Using chocobos as only mount and doing the same thing / same flying route at the exact same timing each single time.

The worst part is if the company start implementing measures that 'checks' if you're a bot or not, it usually ends up solving nothing and making things worse for the actual players. You ban them, those botters will just make more accounts cause getting banned doesn't mean much for them. I've played several games where such measures were taken and good lord. There were also cases where actual players were getting banned instead too. It sucks that, as of now, there are no ways to win against botters.
