The Unofficial "Why is this still a thing" Thread

Because RMT. Also because it makes stripping an account possible by players who share the same account. Not that it doesn't stop people from doing either of these with some free-trial account, it just requires effort.

I've never understood the RMT excuse (has this actually been said by SE?). What is the harm if RMT can send gil between characters on the same account? This can all be tracked by SE.

Also, account sharing is against ToS (aside from sharing with your legal guardian or minor child), so that shouldn't be a concern anyway.
