Well, i do be crazzy (seriously i thinkin that right now as im writing this). but...

wouldnt the RMT issue be solved if SE just made Gil untradable trhu gamers (only to NPC such like Retainers... well as things are going right now think about some few points...

1.-there is no delivery box service unlike at XI that allow you pass money trhu your multiple characters on a same account... so no point in make money tadeable,except to buy items in wards or trhu bazzars or at much... repairs(wich then is also done trhu bazzaring, not trhu actual trade) so .. unable to tarde money = bye bye to RMT

2.- If you gona put the excuse of giving money to a friend... just think about it.. why you will give him money? so he buy things?, as things are now just better buy these items and trade him the gear instead, actually i think thats what everyone else does,if not craft the item self for a fellow, so far i be seen people trading all sort of items passing by gear trhu synths.... but so far, and im not joking, i havent known yet of ppl giving gil to a friend , and alot of people have said it, money is rather worthless right now at least.

so i dont think there be point on made money tradeable at all. thats my point of view.

Yes i know, it sounds dumb , very, but think about it carefully and watch, at least i be seen on all LS i be been people givin away items crafted by themselves than lending gil.
