    RMT using World Transfer to make money?

    Not sure if this has been brought up before or if it even belongs here, move it if you want. I always notice a person on FFXIAH.com by the name of Tarukujata selling tons of Fire Bomblets, D ingots, V Claws; just tons of expensive shit. So I checked if there was some on other servers with the name Taru[insert server here]. Turns out that there's one on a lot of servers... they're buying a fuckton of expensive items and transferring and reselling them for profit. Looks like RMT got a little smart or someone else is just making a lot of money with it.

    Apparently you really DO have to spend money to make money.

    o.O Well they are creative with their names(lawl). And this is what makes me wonder, is SE really that dumb/blind. Sometimes I think they make like some percent of the money these RMTs make. Oh well @_@, maybe we will have another super sale lol and I can just sell everything I got and quit for a few monthes...We can only hope

    Yeah, I don't think it will be that big of a deal. However, the black community will continue to be wary.

    Fixed for the white man. Fucking crackers.

    He is a strategic player and he may or may not be involved. However, if we want to freak out a bunch of people watching cnn, we will be sure he's there.

    Re: RMT using World Transfer to make money?

    People were predicting this would happen long before server transfers opened up, and was one of the reasons people didn't want SE to allow the transfers.

    As much as the likely case is that it's RMT, it's also possible it might be a real player that is a gil buyer.

    Re: RMT using World Transfer to make money?

    Well it is not just RMT who use World Transfer to make money.
    Most will be RMT probably. The thing is this will balance out the community
    and prices on the servers sooner or later.

    Used the World Transfer myself to make some Gil.
    I made out of 4.5M over 11M+Peacock Charm.
    (Best was Gem Cuirass bought for 1.6M, sold withing one hour for 5M via /shout,
    I did not care if I could get 10M if I would have waited longer, was glad I found
    who bought it )

    But I doubt this Taru<server> person is a legal player .

    Re: RMT using World Transfer to make money?

    Has World Transfer even been out for more than 90 days yet? You can only transfer once every 90 days, so unless they did that with multiple characters, there's no way he could have gotten to most servers yet.

    prolly bought CD keys threw the new pol thing ment for the starter kits this definitly gatta be RMT the scale is to large to be 1 person i would think as long as the profit outways the cost even by a little RMT will keep it up but its not ganna last very long like 1 of the other posts sed prices are ganna even out accros all servers over time now prolly be a while but if this keeps up it will happened some day maybe not exact prices but close enough there wont be any profit in it

    Re: RMT using World Transfer to make money?

    This was the obvious next step for RMT, the moment world transfers were announced you had to know this would happen.

    Go! go! roughly the same prices on everything on every server!

    /sigh

    Re: RMT using World Transfer to make money?

    You would imagine that they would be losing alot of money paying for all these transfers. I dunno how much actual profit that would make. Anyway, if they all get banned then SE just made some money pretty easily.
