What's funny is that despite the fact I'm both a crafter AND a 1.0 player I've never even seen a million gil at any one time, let alone 5mil. Maybe I'm alone in this, but it seems a very lofty price for a single player to fork out for personal housing.
Actually, that's a legit concern. I was a crafter in both FFXI and FFX|V, and the most I ever had at one time was 1.5 mil (which I may or may not have obtained illegally). On FFX|V, I farmed and crafted for days, and the most I ever got was 400k. Maybe some of us just weren't meant for riches in MMOs.
Mag, are you an RMT? You can tell me. I am your friend. *turns on tape recorder and holds close to Mag.*
I dunno, I think everyone has done some RMT in their career.
I remember when scorpion harnesses were 15m and I was sick of moat carp and tiger fangs and spent like $25 to get it.

Thought about it a lot. especially when I started wanting to buy Alex and what not. Surprisingly haven't touched it. I've just grown use to almost never having more than a 1-3 mil due to laziness.
I remember when Scorpion Harness and Haubergeon were 15m. I laughed and got an Assault Jerkin instead. Such a gloriously hideous armor piece.
AJ was an inside joke for me and a few friends. I went like 1/30 on it, so when it finally dropped it was a big deal because of how long it took to get it. Always threatened to drop it and force them to farm me another.
I'm talking earning/making it, not buying it. You can't 'buy' real life money, unless you're a prostitute of some kind, lol.
Ehhhh still doesn't require as much work as 9k does irl. We're talking 2hours of dynamis farming to make a mil. Maybe 4 if you're really bad.
How much can you make in 2 hours?
Depends on how good you are at investing, gambling, etc. and how much capital you already have.
But here's an interesting read, this class at Standford University was given $5 and 2 hours to make as much money as possible. The winning team raked in $650 is says.

not even gonna lie, after I'd played ffxi for around a year I was still only a lv50something blm and I couldnt afford staves or torques or anything. This was around 2006 but I had my mom go to IGE for christmas i think and get me 1 mil "DONT ASK WHAT ITS FOR" but that lasted me like 2 years lol >_____>
I was always a little bit too paranoid to buy gil I think too.
Like I'm sure the risk of anything happening in the way of bans was relatively low, but .. I liked my char too much to risk it anyway. >_>
This. As much as I hate to say it my online personas are pretty damn precious to me.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
