First of all I'd just like to say Hi I just purchased FFXIV: ARR yesterday and wanted to check in on the forums. so....Hello

now the meat of the thread:

Did I pick the wrong server? I am on Malboro NA and it seems like every 15 minutes someone is sending me a tell about buying Gil with real money. Is this a widespread problem? What can I, the average player, do to stop it?

I am a fan of Playing the game and earning my rewards and intend to subscribe for awhile, I've already pre-ordered the CE for PS4. But I am a bit dissapointed at the spam for using real money to get in game perks (the reason I pick a subscription MMO is to avoid this kind of shit)

Anyways thanks for listening and hopefully there is some way to help put an end to the endless spam.
