Lol that 2nd post makes me laugh because you would make it super easy for gil sellers to move gil around between alts.

I'm not saying it wouldn't be a quality of life change but only ones to really utilize would either be players who flip houses or gil bots. Rest would depend if the person wants to send some gil to a registered alt of theirs

YES!!! They literally make us PAY EXTRA for the "privilege" of having more than one character per server. The least they can do is let us trade between our own characters.

A common suggestion is to put items in your FC's company chest and then have your alt take them out. But that's only practical if basically no one but you is doing that. If you had a lot of people doing this kind of thing all the time, it would be chaos. People would be taking other another player's items, either by accident or purpose. And what are you gonna say? You put it in the FC chest, if it's in there it's for people to take.

What I do when I want to send items to my alt is put them on the market board for 1 gil and IMMEDIATELY log out and log on the alt to buy them. It's risky, because another player could potentially buy them, but I haven't had a problem with it so far.

To "send gil," I basically do the opposite exchange. Have the character who needs money put some worthless item on the market for a high price, and then have the other character buy it. Yeah, you lose out on some of the gil due to the market tax, but what else can I do?

Every other MMO has some kind of account vault or a way to send items to other characters. FFXIV not having it is just BS. It doesn't matter that the game is designed to only play on one character, when a lot of players do have alts anyway.

Maybe a dumb question, but... why would a gil seller care to move gil between alts if the alts are all tied to the same account? How is that productive for them? Why would they bother making multiple characters on the same account at all? I imagine when Squeenix bans a gil seller, they ban the whole account not and just the one character.
