"all" is a pretty strong word. gil buyers ARE a major driver of our economy, and the markets on all servers will see a pretty major decline in both volume and demand if gil buyers are banned. and seeing as how, for a pretty large portion of the population, the market board IS our endgame, this is directly harmful to our gameplay experience.

Gil sellers and advertisers, ban them. but the bots that single handedly keep the prices of shards and low level mats reasonably priced by putting in the equivalent of thousands of man hours of skill-free labor, they help the economy. its a delicate balance.
