Pending approval? Is that new? I've never gotten that before.
Try using an image tag and not uploading it.
can you guys still see the attached thumbnail? It's gone after I tried approve it.

I just saw it. lol
Mistake on the GM part.
Basically... someone called a GM to ask to migrate to his GF's server. The GM told the player that they couldn't simply change them.
Then the GM told the player to check the POL viewer, playonling.com, and ffxi.com.
The player then asked, "ffxi.com... isn't that an IGE website?"
GM replies, "Ouch, that's true. I'm sorry. Well, just check the POL viewer and playonline.com then."

I wouldn't exactly call it advertising for IGE.

Perhaps, but itsdoesn't look like the GM was trained well, either. Perhaps it was their first day.

Landisl is an idiot. I got him when my account got ganked. He was also the infamous GM who was going to put a bst in jail for "holding" an antlion at Tiamat. The bst was using it as a pet.

Obviously this is proof that SE has been selling gil all along and thats why they don't ban gil sellers and botters.

Mhurron has it. I bet thats why. In fact I think IGE is owned by SE in secret :)

So... S-E has dealings with every other MMO IGE sells in game funds for?

Yes. Especially City of Heroes. Because that stuff is so useful! Man, if you can get you some CoH/CoV currency, you've got it made.
