Worst Nightmare...the cult of RMTs PHOTO PROOF they exist!

[BruceyBruceyBangBang]

I am not too concerned about RMT for ARR. Yoshi-P and the team seem to display a good enough understanding on what they should be doing when developing an MMO. RMT shouldn't be an exception.

If it gets to the point where I am flooded with tells to buy gil from Brosales...

[Breladine]

Are you afraid? I was!!!

Every MMO on the market has RMT for that particular game for various things from money, to items, to power leveling, and so on. The picture is an unfortunate reminder, but it's far from being shocking or even a surprise. I don't think I really needed proof.. I just assume RMT is in any MMO that I play. I try not to think about it since there's not a lot I can do about it.

I find it amazing that SE doesn't just sit around Cedarwood waiting for the next unsuspecting RMT to come along so they can ban them.

It's in the name of the all mighty dollar. The pay SE for the accounts, they farm a faction leve all day/night long for karakul fleece and build up money for 2.0 starters, 2.0 comes around, SE Bans Gilsellers removing a huge sum of gil from circulation and SE profits in the process.

These threads are still happening?

All I see is people without linkshells. You should invite them to yours.

People like you are creating a hostile environment for new players.

Yes, just a bunch of people without linkshells and faceroll-keyboard names, and wearing newb clothes, all looking nearly identical and all the same class and level, who all stand around and link leves while only ONE goes to finish the leve. Oh yeah, nothing suspicious here.

I'd like to know why whenever a player sees a bunch of characters with randomly designed names they assume they must be RMT? Has it ever occurred to people that these are characters created by traditional players or linkshells to quickly leve their own members. Maybe it's players trying to determine stats. Whatever it is... Most of them stand their doing nothing (@ cedarwood). And there is always a high profile ls player nearby (BGLS on Durandal).

Still will violate terms.

It shoudl be obvious. Why? Well think about the gil generated by each new chracter and they can delte regenerate characters, run base quests, and genrate high gil from the rewards. Delete, reroll them fast. THose characters in my photo alone. Cna fast leve, run the payoff quests with 1 high level, and generate 800k each within a day of acceptable level.

THat thar party Will make about 5 million gil. WIth noticable 4 groups that guy will push 40 mil gil in that period.

Pushign more now wince FFXI was dropped to almost no cost with 30 day free trials.
