    not RMT himself, but as far as i'm concerned if you work alongside them you're no better than them.
    Reminds me of Roundhouse helping RMT get past the ZMs long ago on Unicorn.

    Page claim in the name of PLD whoring out for RMT! :D

    lol, smart guy. got himself some nice gear.
    Yup, he got his, so screw everyone else who wants to fight KB and actually earn gear instead of having to buy it from RMT. Brilliant!

    I wouldn't be surprised if that was exactly what he was thinking. Most people on this forum would do the same thing if they weren't scared of being found out about or he didn't get the opportunity to do it first.

    That greed isn't all that uncommon in endgame.

    Endgame in general, probably. On this forums? Less likely. I mean, even if you had the opportunity, that's like fucking your entire server in the ass.

    Even I, who hate literally half the people on Bismarck, wouldn't do that.

    Had to be a pretty lucky drop considering the gilsellers on our server have killed KB like.. twice and otherwise just CFH.. or set their claim bots to NQ only.

    Guess I'm confused though, because it's not really made terribly clear since it seems people are talking about both sides.. is this person a notorious gilbuyer or one of the gilsellers that usually have a parade of Taru on /follow and take 28 minutes to kill NQ Behemoth? :D
    He is the RMT gilseller, not a gilbuyer. In sky, he and his PLD buddy Humehid have a clone army follow them everywhere (all Taru, all BLM, all same model, all same gear...hell, they all rest and cast at the exact same time). Funny someone mentioned RMT named Rcommen on another server.....the NIN of this group is also name Recommen.

    Also, the PLD/NIN combo is just mirroring other HNMLS's. Honestly, if we were to kill a Fafnir with me tanking as BST/SMN....they would show up as BST/SMN eventually. They basically tank an NM with whatever tank a legit LS used recently. Willing to bet NIN/DRK and BRD/NIN RMT's are being lvl'd as we speak.

    If memory serves me correctly, they have claimed 3 Nidhoggs, all resulting in Flails. Nid #1 was self induced because they didn't have a clue what they claimed. Nid #2 flailed due to some help from a Wabo RDM (actually...he triggered flail twice). Nid #3 was also an aided flail, but this time by a Fortune PLD. Sadly, RMT reclaimed later and CFH. Funny how 2 LS's who have been at odds their entire career's (as seen on this forum a few times) suddenly band together for a common cause.

    KB doesnt just pop once in a life time, lol. How did he not earn it? they claimed it and killed it, are you talking about botting? then many many many people didn't earn their D.ring too i guess. The fact that they are RMTs? whats wrong with taking something free from RMTs?

    i've done it before (never in my life i gave RMTs money), but took almost all the sky items from them, just had to stay @ camp, and when shit drops i lot. saves me the trouble from camping against them, spending endless hours, I'd rather focus on more fun stuff. I have a HNMLS, but they dont do Sky, and i dont want to commit myself into a Sky LS just for some items, cus i know i will not want to continue with them for a long time.

    To people it's a question of morals.

    You're accepting help from a notoriously hated group of people, and by accepting their help, you support them to an extent.



    Taking items from the Gil sellers themselves, people believe, will only encourage them to stay and farm more, believing they can profit more off by exploiting Rare/ex items. Also make them into thinking that the social norm of that server has accepted them into the society, thus only causing more problem.

    Last night at behemoth, a Tactics LS member, Wabuwabuu, was able to get into an RMT alliance on another character(Stetaru) and hilarity ensued.

    Much thanks again to Wabuwabuu for making our night

    There is nothing free from gil farmers: they either sell things that have value, or they give them to people as payment for helping them learn how to kill things. We all know that gil farmers are going to go to stop going to KB once they learn how to kill it, they got the titles and the satisfaction of a job well done. No wait, you mean that they will go back and monopolize it with bots and just generally ruin things for everyone? Oh my stars and garters! What a completely unpredictable turn of events!

    Having rare gear is supposed to means that you spent time and put forth and effort to get it. I know, it is a lot to expect that everything that we desire in this world isn't set before us on a silver platter. If you would like a game like that, may I suggest that you uninstall FFXI immediately and start playing this one?

    How is this different from non-RMT LSes?
    Let's see...

    Not every linkshell bots.

    Some linkshells stop camping NMs when they don't need items from it anymore.

    Most linkshells don't operate with the intention of blocking every other linkshell so they can make the optimal profit possible.

    Just off the top of my head.

    I don't know aboot that....
    The potential money drops offa Behemot and KB are interesting to everyone, not just rmt. Even if they are a plague and we'd be better off without em, there will always be a group there when it's aboot to pop because B.Hide is still and will always be an interesting item. (For money or the actual items that you can get out of it.)

    A linkshell can make better money working for three and a half hours in sky than off of possibly getting claim on a KB...

    about botting all i have to say is:

    This is what happens when you make a flawed ass NM system. The developers for this game are either blind as hell or damn retarded to believe bots weren't going to be a big part of the end game. People are pretty damn retarded if they thought most people, not all, but most aren't going to do everything they can to gain an advantage over others when its a possible few hours of camping for a mob that pops once-a-day or even a week.

    In conclusion, its a retarded system that has and will always will encourage bots until the whole damn system is re-done. This plays perfectly into the gilsellers game.

    yahtzee. and while we're unable to make blanket statements about how people who do immoral things at one point in their lives are always going to do other and even more immoral things afterward, we can cite with evidence that unscrupulous acts have a higher probability of leading to more unscrupulous acts, and increasing in degree over time.

    Good one, kiddo. It's called having fun. You should try it some time. Soup spent the time to get Excalibur, and he can do whatever he wants with it. I sit back and laugh at everyone who grabs ahold of Soups dick and makes these stupid comments about him. If you don't like somebody, why make random little comments thinking you are awesome? "OMG GUYZ I JUST POSTED SOMETHING ABOUT SOUP ON A FORUM, GO CHECK AT HOW COOL I AM!!!!!" Get off his dick, kids.

    BTW, I melee tanked Fafnir with Algol, Sushi, and also used charges on my Reviler's Helm for fun. Cry me a river you retarded shit.

    To be honest, it's impossible to have any sort of competition at all without people cheating at it.

    I don't think I'd want to play an mmo with no competition though.

    Kalia, im pretty sure that the Valefor D.Ring thing is still just a "Maybe" because we havent seen any new drings or any RMT with it on.

    Everyone just be ready because in the next 6 months every big and maybe every small NM in the game is going to be instanced.

    And heres some food for thought: person buys something off RMT. Theres probably a 99% chance that they are gilbuyers too, so they are buying dirty items with dirty money - the RMT are doubling their profits.

    Oh and for the people who CFH on NQ behemoth instead of just stealing it.... good job? not really...
