so run out of gil...now what?

[makii]

God knows how many people are going to quit at 50 who have no interest in gathering and crafting.

And why is this a bad thing again?

Less crying on the forums. You'll know people online will at least like the game enough since they are paying for it.
Less people buying gil which will cause a drop in GMT spam and teleporting bots.

There's literally nothing bad about subs.
