It's time to reevaluate the idea of adding a PLEX/Chronoscroll-like system to FFXIV

I kinda like this idea, I wouldn't have to hunt down time cards anymore =P.

Instead you would have to spend countless hours making the millions it costs to purchase the item. Unless you're legitimately rich and have nothing to buy in game you aren't going to be the one who's winning, it will be the people who just spent $1/hr for your time.

Either way only the rich will prosper from this one way or the other. Poor people in game won't be able to afford the item with gil on the mb and poor people in real life will not be able to afford the item with real money.

I was sort of joking; I'm legitimately having a hard time finding cards at local stores =P. I guess you're right though, my entire game time would be converted to almost exclusively making gil to buy game time to make gil to buy game time.
