    lol really you run badboy thats why you don't get tells from gold farmers but they are there yes and they sell gold because people buy it and yes people craft in wow and make gold just like people craft in ffxiv so please lets not go there and act like uh it dont happen on other mmo's bullcrap!

    and gear on wow is expensive i play on one of the highest populated servers to date and i can tell you yes they exist and yes the ah market is high and people do make money from crafting the nice thing you can repair your own gear in this game if you just do the damn tradeskills.....

    by the way the gear sets look like crap in wow since mop and repairs are cheap its the mats that are expensive and you have to do raids to get many of the higher level mats and patterns...

    Yeah, they are there. But they don't mass spam and no one really buys them. The currency is easily generated to maintain any personal costs, and crafted equipment is rare, if ever, best in slot. You could run Karazan up to Attumen and sell all the drops to the NPC right next to him and be able to afford repairs for well over a week. Gil still has a HIGH value in the economy and gear hierarchy on this game with limited means of accumulating it thus making it more likely to get spammed with gil ads because it's more likely that players WILL buy it. I'm almost positive they had a customer base with all the ads for 1,000,000 gil for $3. Prices were wildly high at the start of the game because pricing was set as though every player had thousands or millions readily available on a new server for the launch of a new game. And yes, we ALL could repair our own gear if we leveled the crafts, but like I said I would pretty much need to level EVERY craft to repair my gear palette and then there's the costs of some of the dark matters to do that as well as the costs of leveling the crafts (both in gil and time.) Not everyone is running around with a million gil and several level 50 crafting classes. But this is personal gil gain and not gil generation as a whole on the server.
