Policy Change needed on "RMT & Services"

[kidalutz]

I'm not very high level with my farming classes, which might be why I'm not seeing this? I genuinely feel bad for the players who are having to combat an army of BOTS for the various nodes.

Out of the MMO's I've experienced, FF14 seems so "clean" of this type of stuff, but again, it seems like it's something effecting the NA servers? I'm not sure how big the English speaking player base is for the EU servers, but I am guessing due to our lower player base on this side, it's not worth it for these bots/farmers to try and peddle their services here?

Seriously, thanks for telling me what to keep an eye out for, I would never even think to check to see if a hack (cheat) is being used. I guess I have been very naive about people risking accounts, but I expect they are just using free trial accounts and just let it level up to 29/30? , so they don't have to risk buying a new CD key every time they make a new farming account?

nah most of the gil farmers go all the way to 50 I mean a persons sub is cheap compared to the 25+ DOLLARS EVEN ONE PERSONS WILING TO SPEND FOR GIL you figure.... 800 or so people blowing that or even more for stuff off the MB or housing.

The fact that some of the DoH bots on the market are also involved in RMT only makes the whole situation worse, as you have people buying gil, then giving that gil back to other RMTers to be resold.

It creates an endless cycle.
