Divorce...

[Ametrine]

We kept asking for it.

Despite the OP's individual situation, he has pointed out a loophole in the system. Yoshi-P stated that marriage was mostly for RP, but, in a practical gameplay sense, it allows you fast access to someone you should reasonably be frequently playing with, so that the teleport is useful, fluff aside.

I guess I empathize with OP a bit becuase I had a relationship go sour, and the only means of escape from his stalking was to jump servers and change my name, something others with an established group to play with may not want to have to do.

An ulterior motive that seemed to backfire? I'm sure if you put in a ticket to explain the situation, there is the possibility that they might nullify the capabilities, but you can't refute the fact that you entered into this virtual pact for all the wrong reasons. The other person paid the fees (ed. traded real money for in game glamour items - within the boundaries of the rules of the game, since it was through the Mog Station) and you reaped the benefits. Other than all the stuff you got courtesy of this persons real money, there was only one thing that they could expect in the end - to teleport to you every 30 min. There's no shared gil, property, or items.

The reaction you are giving here is why they haven't made it so that an eternally bonded couple can't dip into each other's things. I'll be honest, I never thought about someone actually entering into the eternal bonding system for the sake of stuff like you did. Ugh.

[edited to add] I actually know someone in game who did stuff in real life for the sake of gil then regretted the outcome as well. I should be shocked by what you did, but knowing someone who promised nude photos in trade for gil... Well, I guess RMT pales in comparison. The lesson here isn't that SE needs to fix the divorce system, it's in the motivation that drives someone who wants a piece of glamour gear so bad that they are willing to take advantage of someone else to get it, then they don't want to suffer the consequences.

As I said earlier, I am fine with my current situation because it was a friend that I married. He was cool with paying for the stuff because HE wanted it and wanted someone he knew to marry. I reap the benefits but again, that is not the point of my thread as many are misinterpreting or trolling.

I'll just quote myself from earlier what THE MAIN problem is about:

This problem has nothing to do with who, how, or why you married someone in game. This is not a problem Pre or post marriage. It is a problem POST DIVORCE. Taking all emotional reasoning out (since emotion is never good to use for reasoning) and utilizing logic, as I've stated before, this is not something that will be abused by the majority of individuals whom decide to divorce. However, we. are. human. There WILL be that one individual who is sour after a bad relationship. There WILL be that one individual who will use this flawed divorce function to harass said player - as these things happen in real life, it is more than possible in game.

O look, someone gets it. Thank god. It isn't about me. I don't care if my friend creeps on me- it is my friend. What I care about are people who have sour relationships and the fact that SE is basically making it EASIER for potential harassers to do their thing.
