    Like I said earlier, lets consider how this would affect THIS game.

    Historically speaking, things have a hand of getting exploited in ffxiv, especially where gil is concerned, which is why the very possibility of implementing this scares me. I dont how things worked on other servers but I havent forgotten what happened on gugnir when atomos first popped up, b4 SE realized and nerfed him........

Remember that Atomos crystal exploit? Ward prices got crazy, only difference was that everyone in the game could do it.
    I agree that Atomos screwed up the economy because of the INSANE amounts of gil that were introduced into the Eorzean economy. The same argument can be said is the damage done by RMTs but I am not at all convinced it would apply to this suggestion. At most some people would spend a little more time crafting and gathering to make gil to pay for their subscriptions but that might also raise the liquidity of the market wards by bringing in more goods which at least on Ragnarok would have been hugely beneficial.
