    I agree but when someone has already re-invented the wheel, I don't think there's a chance in hell it'll be repeated.

    The universal trade currency is gil yet we all still have the trade function and yet I don't know anyone who actually uses it!

    ========================================================

    Just because a few small groups of people wanna exploit the opportunity of selling what's not theirs in the first place for money and breaking the ToS, it doesn't call for "radical new ideas". Criminals don't determine my fate in this life or the next. I rather put my foot down and stand up to them or suck it up. It's either Gil or GTFO. LOL

    I disagree that because gilsellers/gilbuyers and winsellers/winbuyers exist that the economy should be removed from the game.

    Your solution to that problem is just to make a much more blander game.

    With no trading and no currency, carries will be sold for real money and there will be absolutely no way to track it, because no record of the gil exchange takes place. Entire account transactions will be untraceable.

    Removing gil and trading from the game effectively removes the only viable competitors to RMT vendors, i.e. those who sell carries for ingame gil only. You either have a FC or buddies to help you with stuff, or you gotta buy with real money from RMT vendors now.


    RMT vendors will also be selling accounts with the things that people would originally want to buy. Order made accounts.

    If you are attached to your account and want achievements on your account?
    Sure, hand over your passwords and remove your authenticator for N days and they have a pro team carrying you through whatever achievement you want.

    Last I heard you get coil gear from coil...

    Yup not on the markets. Still in coil.

    So.. Do you make your own food? Or even use food? What about your accessories? Do you craft them yourself as well? The game can be completely self sufficient if you want it to be. But that's your choice. Pushing this on people just sounds like you have no money and want everyone else to be poor with you.

    Trading at its very essence is cooperation. Basically you're removing a huge way for people to work together. You have to be really naive to make these kinds of suggestions.
