    Sorry i have never posted on here before so if i do this wrong please forgive me.

    I would just like to say that I do not agree with this idea to reduce everyones gil to 1/10th of its current amount, I work extremely hard for my gil and I have never been the most succesful at making money in these mmo games. The way I see this is that I have worked tirelessly trying to save up for when 2.0 came out so that for once I could be succeful (money-wise) only to learn that the game is gonna take all that away, say what you will about "if everyone loses the same % no-one really loses anything" I don't buy it, people who struggled to make gil now will struggle even worse in 2.0 now. you people all talk bout these folk with millions of gil, wut about the guys that only have say 1 million, now they only got 100k which if is anything like it was in XI 100k will buy nothing.

    I understand that the market is inflated and they wanna help the new folk have a more equal playing field but if im gonna have my money cut by 90% i otta get something for it, I pay real life money for this game and all the time i have invested to make the gil I have now feels like a complete and utter waste. I have never had a game take something away from me that I worked hard to get like this game is proposing to do. Which is why I propose this, if you are gonna take our gil atleast let us do it ourselves, in that SE makes a list of U/U items that can only be purchased by people who are currently playing the game, it would cost 90% of the gil you have, and it would be a 1 time thing so you could only get 1 item. to me this would be fair, atleast I get something out of all the gill you propose to steal from me. I'm sure they wouldnt do this obviously, but if you are gonna screw over the loyal people who have been playing your game and paying you for it when everyone else wouldnt even give your game a second glance, you outta atleast give em something in return.

    again sorry if I posted wrong or anything, and I admit now that i am no grammer expert so please excuse and spelling errors that you may find.

    Everyone's gil is being reduced to 1/10th its value, the rewards/costs from quests, npcs, and monsters are also being reduced by this value.

    The number may look smaller but its the same % of money you have now and after.

    I would suggest reading the entire thread before freaking out.

    Your 100k in ARR is going to have the exact same value as your 1 million from 1.0.
