    Nevermind, cool story!

    How the hell do people justify paying for 18 accounts and more to the point, how do you even play 18 accounts? Even if they're all botted, you'd need like 6 computers to run them all. By the time you buy all of those, might as well just buy the gil. Lol.

    Why would you need 6 computers? I'm sure 2 would be fine. You aren't actually playing most of those accounts, they just sit there getting cruor/botting blinkers.

    It only takes like 2m worth of gil to pay an accounts monthly fee, it would only take a very small % of what you'd have made 18 boxing cruor/blinkers to cover your costs.

    and despite SE more or less saying "this is very very wrong", they didnt ban or rollback anyone's gil who did this, and then introduced methods to viciously siphon gil out of the system, fucking over everyone who did NOT do this.

    Just seems odd that he would say well over a couple of months. True that could be alot of time but sounds like there was a window and cruor was doable for a long time. Regardless how are you getting 300k cruor an hour with a bot? Didn't realize any could coordinate kills good enough to kill every 6 seconds or so

    12+ of the characters would be doing nothing and you could easily sit idle on 12 chars with a decent pc. You would make enough gil in under 12hrs (extremely conservative) to pay for every accounts billing fees.

    Nobody got banned who wasn't selling the gil as well, and you'd have to be pretty fucking stupid to get your main chars banned for selling gil.

    It was technically probably doable on a large scale since 90cap. That's pretty irrelevant though. The question isn't when it was possible, but who was smart enough to use it to its fullest potential.

    It was quite easy programmatically; Even if you didn't run all the characters locally, connect them to a central server (tcp) and pass the next targets ID to all connected clients, have them all murder it - then move onto the next one. One master melee selecting the targets and passes them to the server - that's the basis of it, anyway.

    Your PC can run 9 accounts? Holy Jesus. I can do 2 fine, but if I try to run a 3rd one, shit hits the fan.

    Like Draylo said, there are more people that play the game than just him...not to mention the fact that SE wouldnt punish main accounts, but mules created for the whole purpose of accruing cruor, knowing full well they'd be getting deleted after rendering cruor obsolete is fucking stupid (if what you're saying is true)

    Huh...? I have no idea what you're really trying to say but you dont get banned for just accumulating cruor rofl. You'd get banned if you were stupid and decided to move shittons of gil between accounts (nothing new, occasionally LS banks in ye olde times got banned for moving too much gil). A mule is just as likely as a main to get banned.

    If you're referring to main accounts, you're incredibly wrong. Most of us are speaking from experience

    Because thats exactly what I said? Because SE has never in the past banned accounts linked by IP/credit card...never, not once

    When roughly did these bannings occur? Not that it matters anymore, but my 2 accounts were banned within a week of each other in October of last year. One account had zero strikes as well.

    Is it appropriate that this thread reached its 666th page on the day that SE released weapons that utterly decimated them all?
