SE Please implement a Chonoscroll/PLEX system in FFXIV: ARR

You seem to think that just because someone doesn't have time to play, means they have a valid reason to buy gil. This is wrong. You pay for the same amount of time as everyone else pays for, that is the level field. When you start using real money to buy in-game money that is where things start getting unfair.

Unfair? Why would they be "unfair" exactly? Unfair for who? You make a point, but you don't bring any argument in its favor. Calling something "unfair" doesn't autimatically make it so.

Is it unfair for those that don't wanna spend money in the game? funny, since it advantages them before anyone else (they can play for free).

Is it unfair for those that pay the monthly fee normally? It gives them more people to play with and by giving more revenue to the developer, more content. IE: More entertainment for the same price.

Is it unfair for those that pay for the gil? Nah, that'd be ridiculous. So who is it unfair for?

How is it unfair? It doesn't allow anyone to get anything that anyone else in the game can't get. It simply converts time into time: IE: time spent in real life to earn the money into time spent in the game to earn girl.

As a matter of fact, it's more fair than having a large variety of items in game unaccessible to those that have less time to play.

Sounds like someone is (dare I say it?) too lazy to go out and farm or craft. Just because it worked in another game dosent mean it will work in this game. The current system we have is fair, if you go and craft or farm matierals you can make gil, but... if you refuse to do any of the above for any reason its just plain laziness. It sounds like to me that instead of you putting work into making your gil you would rather take the easy way out and just buy your in game currency.

Making assumptions about other players of which you know nothing won't give any solidity to your argument.

The fact that it worked in other games (That have economies that are just as fair and actually work better than the FFXIV 1.0 economy, due to way better implemented auction and commerce systems), means that it's a sound system that has solid possibilities to be implemented just as soundly in this game.

Lazyness has nothing to do with it. My concern is hampering RMT firms and, even more importantly, helping the game to retain subs easier.

In this economy, that's not a small problem.
