Know this kid?
So I'm at school, and I clicked an ad on the bottom of a page which ended up re-directing me to a "BI FFXI Gilz NOW REAL CHEAP!" website. W/e. I was just about to hit the back button when I noticed it said I was logged in as some name. I mussed around in the acount manager and found the character.

Tatita spent $141.39 on 5million gil to buy a scorpion harness. I'm reading this info straight from his account. The order is still proccessing, but I wanted to let ppl on the Fenrir server know.

Please, if you know this dude, slap his ass up. I can't because I'm not on this server.

Re: Know this kid?
I don't know him/her, but the name sounds familiar, in any case just being stupid enough to pay so much money for 5 mil is punishment enough.

After all he/she will be that dumb for the rest of his/her life.

Most likely an anonymous mule.... that will transfer the gil to an unknown main account later.

So this person goes to your school, eh? Sounds like you can atually do something about it... say... 3 o'clock in the back parking lot! Muahahaha!

Re: Know this kid?
I can't ever imagine spending that much real money at once for an online hobby. Especially when it would be more fun to just earn the gil yourself.

Ya know, I may even be able to figure out who was sitting at that computer before me. I got a few close buds at my school that play FF, and they don't take too kindly to this kinda non-sense.....

Re: Know this kid?
Unfortunately, beating the stupid senseless doesn't really make them smarter. Trust me, I battle the forces of idiocy on a daily basis, and no matter how many I take out, there's always 10 more to take their place.

Outside of the detrimental effects to the in-game economy, gil-buyer's are more a source of sick amusement to me than anything else. An idiot with a Scorpion Harness is still an idiot... /blist ftw.

The name sounds familiar, but I'm not positive. I'll keep an eye out for him ^^. A Scorpion Harness cost less then 2 mil last I checked and I can't imagine it going up higher.
BUUUUUT this is not all I have to say ^^
This week I will be getting my insurance check for getting hit by a car when I was 4 (just before I turned 5). 8000 dollars (I get 8thou once a year until I'm 24). Guess what I'm going to spend it on!

VITRUAL BEER */laugh * I'm kidding. ^^ I'm buying a vacation with it.
I won't be stupid enough to buy gil. I UNDERSTAND how to make gil on my own in this game, slow and fast (usually slow). When I log on I'm going to see if this Tatita is a mule or real character.

Re: Know this kid?
I'm sure a lot of students are also gamers, offline or online...

Another thing you could do is print out flyers and post them all over school, stating the obvious, of course.
