LM-17

No shit? This thread was dead from the neck down after the OP.

[chiyio]

I was being sarcastic because apperently some LM-11's think FFXI is over without them.

For 950 cheating losers, FFXI is over for them. For the other 200k or so players, the game will go on, as it has for the past 6 years.

950 = 550!

I'm sorry sir, tell me how many people play this game please. I pulled a moderately educated guess, but maybe 150k would have been better.

To people like him 20k would be more accurate, or less than 10k now that the "best players" are banned.

The active section is still showing a fair few. discounting mules and rmt i think its safe to say that the ban wasnt too huge a deal to not do it for SE.

According to FFXIAH stats there are currently 413K Active characters, and there has been 1300K active characters in last 3 years.

May 2007 had 500,000+, May 2008 had 500,000.
I doubt 300,000 quit. I'd say 400-450 is a better estimate.

Of course not. You can't even make a full alliance. You need a full one to kill anything. Especially those damned Robber Crabs.

Fixed.

I bet that's eating them up inside, because they're no longer "special."

I guess my generous estimate was generous towards the losers who who got banned. Sorry D44kpunk;; Take your animosity towards SE/FFXI and put it constructively towards a WoW account? And before you comment "I WASNT BANNED LOSERFACE", I know, but you act like you were rofl.

Square Enix only have themselves to blame for their user's ignoring the terms of service. They've let RMT and 3rd party program users break the TOS and they showed us it didnt matter as GM after GM would ignore and excuse the TOS violators for 5 years of game inbalance and grief till they decided their bank accounts are big enough and their image tarnished enough to suddenly care and introduce the special task force.

Square Enix have themselves to blame for their drop rates in salvage so frustrating and disheartening that we exploit a bug found to compensate for SQUARE ENIX'S inadequacies. They should admit it, change it, and earn respect for their name as an entertainment company. I guess youd have to be a saint to do that. Instead, they blame their customers for being sick of putting the time in to earning the desired equipment and getting no results.

Some people took full advantage of this glitch and used it to triple Sandworm and BCNM drops, this felt like cheating and I left the linkshell affiliated with duping HNM. As far as salvage offenders go, recieving 3 usukane body per 6months seemed much more deserving than only 1 out of 8 dedicated hard working deserving players getting it per millenium. For these players they should have been forgiving.

I know lots of good people who were banned, SE only cares about their name not the people. Their desired customer database are the naive.

[Destinye]

It's all Square's fault, the player has zero blame in the matter.

I see.

[Rocl]

Makes perfect sense to me, bro
