Item Binding

[Fifty]

That idea is horrible... Absolutely horrible. The whole point of shutting the game down was to fix problems not make more.
Reason: Selling and trading used items is imperative. We desperately need an auction house since the launch for this exact purpose.
What would be the point if we finally get the auction house and we can't sell our used gear?
It will clutter inventorys, get tossed and if used long enough become materia (In most cases turning to materia is a bad idea and wasteful). A key factor in decision making for the purchase of gear and weapons is knowing that in a few days of use there is a good chance you can sell it for roughly the same price and then upgrade, it's brilliant! Disabling the economy this way will be a game breaker for a lot of players. The same players that had to wait 2 years to see if this game could improve... The same reason the launch of 1.0 was a disgusting failure.
Please oh god please don't implement this horrible concept.
To conform to the notion that all MMO's are like this is not a valid arguement. Thats why I don't play other MMO's, FFXI was the only one I liked/loved. It was worthy of commiting to and playing for 5 years. And I played FFXIV since launch (Excluding the 5 months I just gave up on it, because the billing started and the game was far from ready) knowing it failed but in support that some day the fan base will accept this as a good game and see this game in its glory. There is a huge demographic of mature players, like the fan base that grew up playing Final Fantasy games since 1987 have to see this game succeed or basically there is no MMO for me to play and I will have to go to work or spend time with family...
This cannot happen, it just can't.
I would even recommend suspending said employee for trying to sabotage the game...
It's simply the worst idea. I will be devistated to see this one fail again over something so obviously essential.
