Suspended Users Over CraftingFollow

The question that wasn't answered, was on these new servers, where did millions of gil come from in the first few weeks.

I am not arguing that your method of obtaining gil isn't possible, just that the money used had to come from somewhere, and its a bit hard to fathom with how expensive TP/Repairs were up until recently, that there was a viable way for millions of gil to enter the economy for people to legitimately use to buy your items.

At most you receive around 700k i think was the number, if you do all the quests and all of the main story and pick nothing but the gil options up to 50/main story complete.

I seriously doubt gil sellers were leveling 8+ toons simultaneously for the sole purpose of collecting gil rewards up to 50. We already know there was at least 2 exploits in the game that have had bannable consequences.

At 50 the best way to generate gil is:
naked fates (to avoid repair costs)
HQ crafter leves (where you gather all the materials/buy from a vendor and not an AH)

Neither of which can generate Millions in a month, i have been pounding out leves as fast as they come and have only made 100k of gil (net profit) in a month, because I run out of leves.

So basically you're still here because you want everyone to know that you think I'm a liar. Fine, keep it up for all I care.

I have never come across such a Negative Nancy - Guilty till you are proven Innocent person on ANY Forum.
He is one of the have nots - so lives off making out that anyone who does, has to be a liar and a cheat.
I wouldn't be surprised if he is a back-stabber in real life. Sad little boy.
SE have, in the past, and will do in future, cast their net too wide and included innocents in their bans.
The attitude that they are NEVER wrong is false - nobody is infallable.

Here's hoping you get released from suspension without a scratch. I know SE does their best, but it's obvious they have the wrong guy here.

One thing about that though, he has yet to prove his innocence. If he gets back on and hasnt lost 1 gil, he was innocent.[/quote]

Even if he HAS lost gil it just means SE are stupid.
What are we supposed to do? Ask each person we sell to if they bought their gil?
Are they likely to say yes?
If it's a sale on the market boards how can we ever tell?
You are just being a Prat for the sake of it!

But you were being gleeful about the fact that he may lose his gil. That is hardly adult!

I think its even more likely that your distrust of and attacks on fellow players is a clear indicator that you yourself are a liar/cheat//probable gil buyer.

He's just a sad little boy who thinks he's being a big bad troll and he can't even do a good job of that!

Well, i hope your account is unlocked soon.

It is not my place to comment on your guilt or innocents. If your account is only suspended and not deleted completely that is just proof that your were not directly responsible for whatever 'criminal' act your account took place in. I am merely speaking as a CJ major and as such, I do feel that best course of action is to remove the 'counterfeit' gil, if you possess any at all, from your account. I only say this because i feel it is needed to stabilize the economy. Again, not pointing blame or guilt, just offering my opinion.

Best of luck getting your account back.

It stinks that some innocent crafters got caught up in the dragnet, but here is a story of a real life crafter who made a killing by installing hidden safes in cars and trucks. Once word got out with the fine level of product this guy has to offer, it attracted the shady drug trafficing crowd who hired him for his service. The installer wasn't pushing or selling drugs, but he was selling a device that he made which helped them with their illegal trade.

Alfred Anaya Put Secret Compartments in Cars. So the DEA Put Him in Prison

While i do certainly understand your point, the guy in question there made something that could easily be used/abused for something shady, and most likely he knew about this fully well. After all, it's not common (and probably borderline illegal) to install secret compartiments into cars. It's not like he got dragged away for making a very pretty looking steeringwheel with diamonds in it and being sued/locked up because he made it so that a drug-trafficing car was able to drive with it.

In the case of XIV crafters it is like that. If you make a shirt or two, even a really pretty one, it doesnt let the buyer of it wreck of break the game. After all, it was made legally and could be (and is) done by anyone else. The only wrongdoing was that it was bought by someone with RMT'd gil. Which is something impossible to know, even if the set price for it would only be reached by the very elite. There's no telling they didnt simply make that gil legally. After all, not everyone with a million or two in the bank is a criminal. Infact, i'm willing to say most of the people who have are perhaps very dedicated, but certainly did not obtain that with wrong doings.
