Worse was when RMT had Sky on lockdown in early FF11 when it was the main endgame content outside of ground HNMs and a lesser extent Sea. Forcing endgame players to buy Sky triggers from RMT otherwise unable to get Sky gear. It was many months before SE even did anything. SE is very slow and incompetent when dealing with RMT and it is nice knowing that the same is for FF14...
