well, after about 2 hours reading i've found out how poor the [GM]'s are on FFXI, well not all of them just most.
I think I read over like 30 stories about people getting banned for using 3rd party programs and for using claim bots, I know for sure that probs' not all 100% are not legit, but I can imagine most of them are. One story got to me where, this girl had this item from an NM that she recieved from that specific NM, that was 20mil on her server. She was then called to that jail place, Mee something or whatever and he asked her about the whole "do you knwo why you're here" etc..and took her gil, because the guy that gave it to her didnt recieve the gil in a legit way, bought it or stole it somehow or whatever and wouldnt give her item back said that she had to discuss with that guy. Ok, so why didn't they ban the guy who gave her gil?
I guess there's a chance it's not true, but it's pretty disgusting. Especially since you have all these well-know gil buyers and gil sellers on FFXI and they don't do anything.
I was on some random WoW earlier, and I was surprised to see how many people from FFXI had migrated onto WoW. Not saying WoW is l33ter then FFXI and FFXI should be burnt, they both have good and bad but the good on WoW kinda overcomes the goodness of FFXI. I got to admit, WoW's graphics aren't as nice as FFXI's, well in-game anway. Blizzard does some amazing movies, the intro to WoW was just wow..o.o XD
But yeah, i'm glad I left FFXI even though the new expansion has come out and I really wanted to try it. I'm kind of surprised I haven't got into trouble for gil buying, I haven't bought any but a few friends of mine have quit and sent me gil from like 300k-700k. There is no problem like this on WoW, ofcourse you get the odd gold buyer but it's not as bad as FFXI. You can actually afford somewhat decent equipment
Oh, and I don't hate FFXI, I think it's an enjoyable..when, and that's when you have a partyand that's only IF it's decent, but then again 80% of xbox 360 FFXI users aren't exactly going to learn about their job and the roles of it before Valkrum Dunes, so more fun for those who want to level the new jobs XD. The whole game is pretty much based on working in a party, I think if they made it into so you can actually solo to level 75, but still have the party aspect to it, so it would be like
Solo - slow, but faster than sitting there for 3hours waiting for a party then get into a party and earn about 5k exp the it disbands.
Party - quicker then soloing but won't have to sit around waiting for nothing.
I think it's even worse now that windower is broke because of the new udpate you can't even do something else like talk on MSN, browse some forums or whatever whilst playing FFXI..o.o
