Re: Is this a possible Chocobo Digging exploit?

If you verify the exploit, you should be able to avoid any punishment by reporting to the GM your findings and explaining that you won't be doing it any more.
Unfortunately, my digging skill is 0 (or whatever the lowest level is called) so it's very difficult for me personally to verify this possible "exploit". I am hoping that an experienced digger (high level skill) might be able to answer my question. Even if a digger throws away unwanted items it still counts toward the 100 item limit per RL day. So either he is somehow going beyond this limit or somehow he is limiting the items to Gold Beastcoins.

I don't know what the character's average sales are, but for instance he sold 4 stacks of Gold Beastcoins and 5 stacks of Gold Ingots one day recently. It's always possible there are multiple characters gathering materials and this one is the seller.

In any case, my main concern is that this digging issue could be an unfair exploit whether or not it's done by RMT. Although, certainly this could be an unusual way to "target" items (like targeting fish with certain bait).
