    Did a check on the amount of money we are dealing with

    And the numbers are shocking

    The number of RMT been ban or replaced about 4000+ weekly that's like 20 usd each for each ban they make

    They have to buy a new game to come back weekly thats 80,000 usd on average consider 4 weeks a month that's like 320,000 usd

    Implementing in-game time sub and allowing it on the market board

    What se fear is that the number are not enough to be even worth the implementation

    Noting will change even if it implemented because RMT are expert in marketing and will alway undercut the server price acordly

    They won't be sendin as much tell to avoid even more losses but they are still there for sure

    Don't most RMT operate on stolen accounts anyway?

    Not all of them if did they probably all banned by now unless they hack the server for more account to steal which is impossible the only way for RMT to get a account for free is by using people who buy power levelling which not many people do

    The numbers are actually really minor when you math it out, the idea that revenue from RMT accounts is somehow significant is laughable. Self serving iDeas about in-game items that provide sub time are not a solution. People buy gil to buy in-game items, not subscription time. Making it possible for players to pay their subscription without using real money helps nothing, and if anything, it provides RMT with a lifeline that costs them nothing.
