We anticipate that even with this update, third parties will continue

SO you've basically punished the law/rule abiding players for what criminals have done

But... you ADMIT that the criminals will CONTINUE doing it?

And you've limited what we can give to our friends (of 72 hours or more) to the most ridiculous 'gift' items you sell? So.. I can no longer give my bestie a minion because some RMT scumbag bought one and resold it in game for gil? GIL?! PIXEL MONEY?

I am being restricted... over pixel money... and other people's criminal behavior that you ADMIT OPENLY they are still ABLE TO DO?

Why did you not just make it so that the items can only be bought with credit cards and make it so those credit cards have to match exactly the name and address on the account buying it?

THAT would have actually LESSENED the RMT activity of using 'stolen credit cards' to RMT mog items...

That would reduce the number of people reselling items because it can be immediately tracked back to the player...

All your 'fix' does is punish those of us who would never abuse the system to begin with.

A complete 'jerk move'. I do not approve. Let me give my friends minions again.

sheesh

Of course it will continue. The companies make a lot of money as players continue to cheat and destroy the economy. Why would they stop? I approve of SE doing ANYTHING to stop this garbage.

It will do exactly nothing to stop them. No game has ever proven and shown any data that says "Restricting certain parts of the game stops gold sellers." This is because the sellers will always, without exception, just find another means.

The only proven method is to have a dedicated staff that hunts them down and handles them case by case. Nothing else works. Nothing else will ever work without hurting the game in ways that will make people jump ship.

As if this will do anything aside from hurting legit players
