So I'm farming in Upper Delkfutt's Tower last night and Ending and Faerieanna are up there, just like they are 24/7/365. Faerieanna has said to me in /tells before that they work for IGE, but tonight this wasnt about the two of them...they were just up there and in my way when I was farming is only reason I meantion them.
So...I'm killing the Magic Pots and another DRG name Zhaygne (or something like that) sends me a /tell something like "Cure you have?" and I said yes, but since they werent about to die and were just resting to heal HP/MP that I wasnt about to heal them because it would slow down my farming. They didnt understand my English because it wasnt just simple words. I sent a message to my LS laughing about how this person up here competing with me farming wants me to Cure them while they rest. LS asked who it was and I told them...and they responded saying that person is a gil-farmer non-stop and probably works for IGE along with the many others on Asura. So, I sent a /tell to that Zhaygne person and said "you work for IGE?" the first time I got no response so I said it again....this time they came back with "yes".
Now, in my experience the IGE employees arent one bit afraid to tell you they work for IGE...and that is because nothing ever happens to their accounts because S-E cant prove anything.
So...since I have chat log showing this person fully admit to working for IGE...I call a GM.
GM talks to me about 20-30mins later and its Senior GM Caedmon (or something like that...I've heard MANY players complain about this GM before). Anyways...after talking to this Senior GM awhile he says they'll look into it, and I tell him that I've already reported these people before with chat logs proving they admit to working for IGE but nothing happens.
He said that they're working to resolve the issue, that they are aware of the issue, but that it is VERY HARD for them to prove anything. My response was pretty much what we've been talking about on these boards lately. All they have to do is to either:
1) Track the fact that these people never do anything but farm the same places 24/7 and never sleep, then take a look at their Delivery Box transactions to see where their gil is going, and who its being pooled onto, and being distributed to players from there.
or
2) Purchase gil online and see which character Delivers it to them and then track from there where that person got their gil, and the person that sent it to them, and the person that sent it to them, etc.
So...here's the VERY SCARY part....
GM says that there is NO WAY for them to track Delivery Box transactions!!!!! They have ABSOLUTELY NO TOOLS to do anything of the sort. Hence, why this problem IS NOT BEING RESOLVED. He said that all he can do is note the problem, review my chat log with this player, he CANNOT ban/suspend their account based on that no matter what it says....and all he can do is pass on his information to his contacts at S-E.
So thats pretty disturbing. The only channel players have to communicate suspicious behavior is through a GM, and GMs cant see ANYTHING USEFUL.
Just an FYI....its gonna be a LONG TIME before anything ever happens....if it EVER does happen.
Its gonna take S-E caring about thier game and right now, I dont think they do. The monthly fees IGE pays them is more than enough to warrant letting these people farm for gil constantly.
GMs were just taken down yet another notch in my eyes because of their lack of tools to do or see anything...
