SE took action!?!?!Follow

someone posted it earlier. but thanks anyway :)

Yeah, I was in Gusgen Mines just a bit ago..and there were no mine bots. I did a search of the area and only eight people came up...
..O_O!

They're not all gone.. =/

Did a few /sea's Kofs, Zoos, Roses. Still there =/ Ordelles looks even more packed than ever with the same names as usual.

Not saying they havn't done anything, but they havn't solved -everything- =/

Sorry but im confused, whats going on? whats KOFs, Roses and all this stuff, ... does it have to do with the banning of CGF's???

Yeah KoFs were piled in Castle Bailey yesterday yet

I called a GM today cause SE said it took action on parties monopolizing NM spawns. Well the Kofs as well all know mononpolize Mee Deggi and Gallant.

So I told the GM it was great they banned 800 accounts, but yet the Kofs live. Well I explained they camped it 24/7 and all that and I was told everything I said was a assumption. Ah well, just thought I would pass that on. Dont look for the Kofs to get banned anytime soon, unless you can get them to tell you that they actually sell gil.

Decendent
52MNK/WAR

Well I think it's a start and let's all hope there is more to come.

they are doing what most MMOs are doing ever since WoW: trying to do something to keep their customers, lakshami, CONVERT!!!!


(w00t to ADD! And yes tanta, i will still annoy theese boards)

A lot of good points have been brought up, the most important however is to wait and see if things start to go down now. Kote is still 1.5 mil, which is absolutely insane if you ask me. Sniper's, Gi and other such items have almost doubled in price. But is it the campers? Maybe, but it is the buyers too, I don't see Vassago's as an NM drop, it is a 60 BCNM, something alot of gilsellers are not. That went from 250k to almost a mil in less then a month. Where do people get this millions to spend? Maybe they didn't buy, but they sold farmed items that were jacked up to buyers wanting to use the small investment they bought to craft. Blink Powder is 11k now, MORE then a 100% markup then what is was merely a month ago.


I would say that bottom line, there would be no sellers if there were no buyers. And you think that this will solve things? Maybe it will, but you have to understand, these sellers, this is their life now, they feed their families on the small precentage they make buy working for whatever company hired them. They will adapt, they won't use obvious names after this. They will rotate in camping and farming, they will blend in. You see this as a step forward, I see this as a warning shot to gilfarmers to breed more and more and things will get worse and worse. Stop buying, THAT will solve everything.

i know you guys mentioned the kof's a few times and how they are still there.....that's because apperntly one of the members let it slip that they use bots....so naturally he gets banned and the others are put onto the "watch list"...blah blah blah

basically they are clean now becuase they aren't using their bots for easy claims...they're trying not to get cought while they are under close watch...but in a week or two just wait and they'll be back to normal

also i can vouche they aren't using bots....cause last time i was in Ordelle's i got the Stroper Chyme 2 times without trying and then a third straight time when i was healing...it used to be absolutly impossible to get it....
