RMT Enforcement - Something Interesting is happeneing

You can call me silly for this but why hasn't SE tracks the MB's? we all know the RMT's and botters control the shard markets, that would be the first thing they can take action to stopping them outright.It might take time but in the end, they will net a lot more people.

When they talked about this in 11. It was felt more beneficial to allow a certain flow of items and try to catch the big bank rmt. The truth is no one has proof which system is better. But as a player you see instant benefit when they ban a bot. But maybe catching the bank and removing billions of gil is better. It also looks good when they say we eliminated 100 billion gil. Police do this all the time when they report busts to the media.

The pessimist in me thinks allowing those shards into the world is needed. Right now Balmung has 13 stacks just over 14 thousand wind shards total. They start at 79 gil and go to 150. If we got a crafting patch with a few recipes that needed 10+ shards the price could get crazy. If players were paying 1000gil per shard SE would probably have to reevaluate how they distribute the crafting catalysts.

While the lock servers every time they delete a bunch they might have to go to plan B. Which in some cases is try to steal accounts. And while you may think it is ok I have an authenticator. They seem to get around this other ways. When money is involved people seem to find ways /sad face.
