Exactly.

For one don't consider sending stuff to alts powerleveling by any means. Having this friend blast you thru content is powerleveling. The game does a nice job of dealing with real powerleveling by downleveling overlevel players when they'd be too high and trivialize content.

For two, this mechanism doesn't prevent anything, it just makes it a pain in the butt.

It's lazy development that only causes inconvenience not found in any reasonable or modern MMORPG.

I plan to just make one character that does everything but the principle still stands. It's a BS reason to inflict unnecessary restriction and inconvenience on players.

I don't see this having any real effect, RMTs will likely just have multiple accounts running on multiple computers, sitting next to each other and just trade it off, or you can use retainers to accomplish the same thing, put a piece of animal skin for sale @ 1,000,000gil, there ya go, cash transferred. Unless you're gonna eliminate all transactions between any characters, there will always be a way around it. So all SE is really doing is tying the hands of their paying customers. This needs to go, the intentions were good, but its not gonna do the game any favors.

If you want to limit this, the only real thing you can do is limit the amount of gil that can be transferred between characters on a daily basis, but that would prevent any real expansion of the economy.
