True, but I would think it easier to keep an eye on the MB for blatantly obvious transactions like selling/buying an apple for 5mil Gil, versus having to comb through the ridiculous amounts of player to player transfers and mog mail. Not to mention, MB transactions are available for all of us to see, while the other player to player transactions must be rooted out by a GM. I would think they could add a RMT report option for MB transactions that scream RMT; then they have another option for these issues to be brought to GM attention.


EDIT: To be fair, a lot of those random gibberish names look very similar to the FF name generator names.
