We need an AH

It should have come to them from experience in XI. RMT ran the economy there for years. SE started making big gil items like O.Kote rare/ex and they had a team dedicated to investigating and banning gold sellers. They used to have huge ban waves. It seems this time around they went with the approach of designing things to directly combat RMT activity, but ignored the fact that if it sucks for gold sellers, it's going to suck even more for legitimate players.

This whole game feels like it was designed and developed in a vacuum where people were sucked into the big groupthink machine. It still boggles my mind how they have a decade of experience and solved problems in XI, yet they still exist in XIV. Where's the forward progress?

I love this post. Its like when you have to plan defense for hackers hacking into a corporate network, you have to also think how it will effect your employee's and your clientele's ease of use for the system. Following the market wards logic, every time you wanted to get on the corporate wireless internet, you would be required to take a full body cavity search before granted access.

I personally would like the see retainers completely gone and in place a bank and just a simple market menu UI using the players real user name. maybe we can leave high dollar items handled in a more secure way but let common resources be sold in the most easy manner possible.
