[Cash Shop Idea] Game Time Token

[Inori-Yuzuriha]

FFXIV Tokens provide players with a convenient, secure way to exchange gil for game time directly through the in-game Market.

Visit the Market and use your hard-earned gil to purchase one of the FFXIV Tokens another player has put up for sale. Once the Token arrives in your in-game mailbox, right-click it to add it to your bag, then right-click again and 30 days of game time will be added to your account.

WoW already did it and it's awesome.

a sub token means someone else is paying for your sub and SE still gets money, therefore they don't lose money

This is a suggesting which i am all for. Those saying you shouldnt be able in any way to buy gil for real money seems to miss the point. SE cant seem to beat the bots by banning them, so why not try to beat their prices?

Remember, the gil which bots put into the marker inflates it. If other players put them up, the gil used to purchase them would have already been in circulation.

I agree that full player control of prices would be risky which is why i vouch for a semi regulated system a la WoW where the prices are continually generated based on supply and demand.

When the botters realize they cant compete theyll go away. In my experience all bots disappeared when this system went live in WoW
