Let's talk about bot housing business

Oh boy, this is such a wild theory.
The limited housing plots and special website aside, it's really a big stretch to assume that submarines are used for RMT purposes. I'm not an expert in that area, but I'm pretty sure there are much better ways to gain gil, lol.

First of all, building all submarines to max level (esp. if you got 30+ FC's) takes a lot of time. You also need better gear, so they can explore better and newer zones.
If you're past that leveling and exploring process, you need to actually get BiS gear for submarines. This is even more expensive. Did you ever craft modified-submarine gear? It's not fun. Especially when you have to turn in every piece 1 by 1.

It also doesnt matter which loot you farm. Furniture, materials, minions or even fight-club mats (NPC=Gil items) - submarines TAKE realtime. You have to wait for the submarines to return. Then you need thousands of FC coins to buy fuel AND repair magitek kits. Even if you craft or buy them, they cost gil either way!

And most importantly, submarines RNG loot system is not reliable to gain gil. Honestly, this thread mixed up subjects just to gain support. And failed at that.
I don't support/defend RMT sellers, but it's not fair to accuse multi-housing owner's. Especially when they worked so hard for their workshops.

Actually one of the first decent response I've seen in this thread, thank you for that.
