like stated before, RMTs are smart and know their job pretty well. They are already there and they already start to control prices.
The MW isnt a great all new system that prevents rmt, its a broken AH. i dunno why ppl dont see that. The only reason there are not many rmt atm (at least i think there are not many atm), because there are so many other mmo where they can actually make money. thats not because the MW prevent them from doin so, its the tiny player base ffxiv currently has.

the funniest thing is... if the MW actually were something unique or all different to a good planned/structured AH, ppl wouldnt discuss so much about it. But they just are not.

With more players, even with the MW, RMT will start controlling the market as well. And perhaps its even harder to recognize them. Not to mention that with more ppl the MW will crash every minute i might think and you wont be able to target any retainer since it will be crowded there or well get a big menue with 40 different wards - YEY!!!

There are ways of tracking price history, and nobody can do it as good as rmt. so they might even have an advantage with the current MW system over the "normal" player. Since a normal player does more then "marketwarding" around.
RMT do only that. So they are the winners in that complex system.

Since the retainers are the only storage way atm (i do use them for storage only because the sell process takes to long imo, so i rather npc (dont need money anyways in this game so far)) theres no need to delete them if theres an AH.

And i think nobody wanting an AH because they are "lazy". Its just a time question. And having too many obvious time sinks in a game doesnt do any good or add fun in any way. And its no fun to look for things at the current MW (please dont say you having fun doin so, because that is really hard to believe).

for some reason i see more "defending" trolls in the forums now then i see offending trolls.
Ppl disliking the system (no matter what parts of FFXIV they dislike) usually had much more reason and good arguments then ppl who liked the current systems. but still calling ppl with constructive comments "trolls" and they getting offensive.
Ppl disliking something are tolls, lazy, they dont play the game... they are too stupid to play etc... thats just ridiculous.
I see these arguments all over the forums...
