I'd love for crafting to be relevant in the game Yoshi, I really would. But why should I bother with crafting when I have to worry about having my account stripped by over-zealous RMT witch hunting practices because I can HQ things and sell them on the market boards. Afraid to sell anything at all TBH. I'd rather make my own food and have repair/teleporting money come from the gil in AK/WP each week and stay dirt poor, than sell my HQ's on the market boards and risk getting my account locked and stripped. so IMO, until SE changes their practices to stop hurting honest players in an attempt to kill some RMT here and there, crafting and gathering to sell will remain irrelevant to me.
