Market has crashed

[silverhope]

The gil that was removed was players gil. It didn't get made by the rmt . Rmt farmed items players needed than players used there gil to buy said items. So the money removed was not "fake" or bad but was used for the wrong purposes (rmt).

There is only so many ways to make gil and when SE took out all that gil it was actually players gil that was made the right way. This scam is so messed up that everyone is involved unknowingly. If you ever buy from the market your helping rmt since they have so many items cornered.

Won't comment on the situation as a whole. However, I vaguely remember reading about a possible dupe cheat/hack with Allagan pieces. If this is true, then some gil was not created legitimately. Gil created from a cheat or hack could be considered "fake".

Yea if that's the case than ofc than I'm glad SE took it out. But I hope they made sure to handle it different with regular gil.

There was also the duping by bomb powders from the event. They traded them with a bot to the npc for cracklers and then sold those to the npc. They did this at bot speed so yeah, that gil wasn't created by players either. Duped gil was removed and there was much rejoicing.
