SOS Linkshell, and Their Irritating RMT'S

[Antipika]

What other areas are they're for that type of exp/sb party?

I have seen them in Copperbell mines, on the PL Camp with the room full of lv45 humanoid that aggros when you run. (Forgot their names).

Same linkshell was there. They tried to MPK me and my party (which is a violation) unlike "suspected RMT that cannot be proven" and I think they got jailed, because they suddently depopped, without teleporting...

So yeah GM calls works, as long as they breach the rules.

(Just noticed someone called Patchouli on OP screenshot <3 )

So here's the story, There we all were Spirit bonding and Exping. RMT's Enter the room, without any consideration start taking all of the Mobs this is not the first time I've had my run ins with them, I understand RMT's is really part of any MMO experience but have some consideration when you see people trying to be productive. I'm only posting this so hopfully some of SE's people will see this...since GM calls do not work Thanks for reading!

They stand in exactly the same spot on my server XD

You really aren't expecting common courtesy from RMT's are you? I really hope something is done about them in 2.0. At least not have them be so blatant. The whole RMT thing is a big nightmare that turned a lot of people off in FFXI. With this game in a such a precarious state, it wouldn't be good for new people to log in and see a bunch of sssss ddddd character's running around in unison. Will bring back bad FFXI memories and how nothing was affordable.

Hello Folks,

I wanted to clear up a couple of items I saw posted.

First, the GM staff, for the most part, is not involved in the investigations into the RMTs, that is done by our Special Task Force. If you place a report via the helpdesk system, then we take the names you submit and we forward them to our Special Task Force. Must is the same if you use the reporting feature found at the Support Centers under "Contact". I know it is very frustrating to see these types of customers and we do try to help out as much as we can.

The next point I saw that I wanted to clear up was the posts about Duel/Multi-boxing. This is not a violation as long as you are actually using multiple machines to play. If you are using third party programs to run multiple versions of the game, then that would be a violation.

I will see what I can do about having the GM staff get more involved, but the Special Task Force has their reasons they are the sole department to investigate, so I cannot question their decision.

I will let this thread stay open, as you all have brought up some valid points.

Be well and good luck in your hunts.

I understand what you are saying and the procedures you describe have worked beautifully in FFXI. Unfortunately appearances are everything in a MMO and it appears to most regular players that there is less of an emphasis on enforcement in FFXIV as we see the same groups in the same places day in and day out. I know SE is well aware of the detrimental effects of unchecked RMTs so I am assuming that the improvements to the Special Task Force are a part of the overall upgrade we eagerly await in ARR.

Thank you for the clarification on duel/multi boxing the game. It's a shame that you can't run multiple instances of this game on one PC, i really hope one day this might be possible. I for one would most definatly have 2 running at once if it was possible. I'd rather have 2 single characters I can play at the same time any day over having 8 that I can only play one at a time ( would really help on those downtimes where you cant get party for a 2+ requirement ). Not everyone can afford to run on multiple pc, alot of people don't even have a 2nd or 3rd pc. The only reason I could see people even using multiple pc would be for 1. RMT, or 2. they just got it like that, props to them.. but we all don't

You can run multiple instances. . Will double resources required on your pc though.

GM just stated that it is not "legaly" possible, that we would require a 3rd party program and would be breaking the ToS, I'm talking about a legit way to do it. Like with Eve online.. you got 3 character slots per account.. only 1 can play at a time per account.. but you can run the client again and use as many accounts as you want.. currently if you try to open up multiple instances without 3rd party it just goes to boot screen then closes out..
