At first i do not really know how i getting suspend for no reason other then spam login after i getting 3102 error where my char stuck ingame while actually i already dc for half and hour. But after sending some support ticket and check official forum, i remember yesterday i make fortune by selling alot HQ material and materia and earn 150k only for yesterday. I never make this much gil before. As i cant contect SE now i suspect my account got suspended because of this reason.

source : -

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads...-amounts-of-gil

from this thread alot people claim they got suspended because selling alot expensive item in market, and some of them already contact SE customer support, their account being suspended for 72 hour regarding RMT.

thanks for reading.

And note becareful selling your things now because you might getting ban from out of no where just by selling your item in market board.

PS : no more ffxiv this weekend

Harsh.. but needed

No its not needed, they need to do more investigation and target correctly else they are just banning legit customers

You cant condemn an entire race for one person that makes a mistake right

Needed not a must.
I bet this kind of people will get around it somehow
And its not even a permanent ban

omg @@

huh?? whats wrong with selling items?? and earn alot?? those items r not hacked or illegal right??

yes, just take note, when gil buyer buying your item, you will got suspend for 72 hour.

I don't think SE is that stupid to ban high amount of gil
I have a decent amount of gil and I am not ban.

Firstly. don't know how 'innocent' are you and those who get banned. I am not suggesting anything at all...

Secondly, if wrongly ban, a much proper explanation from SE is required and compensation is a must.

Whatever it is, it's a d*** move from SE to ban those with high gil that's all. You could be a suspect of illegal act that's all.

If you are innocent, go submit a ticket or call them. There must be a form or a way of communication. Good luck

Yeah, I've been reading the official forum...

From what I understand, mostly because of suspicious trading transaction on Market Board. Its not about the gils amount that you own.

And some guy mention that most of the players that got banned are from new servers.

i show you how much money i get 1 hour before my suspended. And the only things i suspect is all my expensive item i put in AH sold to player in the morning the same day i got my account ban. The only e-mail i got from SE today is about veteran reward.



This the last pic i take less then 1 hour before my account got suspend, and 1st time doing coil, some forumer here know this (running coil with them) because i did the quest right before going for coil. The only gil i have is around 89k.

Well idk if i kena report because i use some white gear during castrum run lol because want to get the materia

Sorry, gil check as per here doesn't explain much nor it is a concrete evidence.
1 could keep in retainer.

Again, to ban due to large amount of gil is wrong and stupid
But, to ban due to high level of transaction of gil is the way to go *by way of mail or market board*

maybe you can read the user agreement and see what you have violated =p

... its ok you do not know me ingame. I play with alot people in lyn forum and any and most of them know me i am never do anything that will deserve to be suspended. Btw no e-mail from SE about my account, i only receive e-mail about veteran reward and nothing else.

Not saying u did, maybe u did it without knowing its against violation .
No offense~

There. Gil buyer probably bought your goods with illegit gil.

IMO, SE should and MUST investigate each and every player before dropping the ban hammer. They can check activity log of the player and from there, they can distinguish whether a player is a gil seller or an associate to one.

They cannot just ban a player due to suspect of being involved. This is VERY unfair to player, especially at the cost of your monthly renewal fee.

I would not say that TS might be an RMT.
It seems that SE might have possibly took harsh action on suspected a/c.
Due to the recent nuisance of RMT activity circulating the world of Eorzea.
Due to the game mechanism, tracing a/c might not be hard for any records of rmt activity log.
Your item that you crafted do have your ingame name imprinted on it.

It's possible that user might be involving in long hours gameplay , heavily camping on certain spot and crafting specific things to sell on the market.

At the sametime, another user which has no form of records of earning his own gil but got gil from just selling junk that makes no sense.
This suspicious user been mass buying the same item from TS.
Why suspicious? Because he does not craft item, everything stays at lv 1 or untill 10 only. Gil comes from another a/c or another same user been buying items from this a/c that sells "a" crystal for 100k.

Instead of summoning the user to the GM directly and go through the hassles, they just set him on Ban list.

I think just going through the usual routine to prove that you're not an RMT would just be fine. A simple conversation will do.

You or the staff of SE could really differentiate a legit player and a rmt.
Rmt will have difficulty in speaking proper english. They could not answer common sense question. And worst of all, they're using the same payment on one specific debit/credit card. Not 2 or 3 but over 10.

Tool flags you and autosuspends you. Its can't be manually done (investigation). Not possible considering all things. To elaborate on how supposedly innocent people are getting hit:



http://www.playonline.com/pcd/topics/ff11u...008/detail.html

would hope that SE give a damn to teleport hackers that being reported...this 1 fella from this KAOS guild tonberry server, a PLD is using teleport hack on banemites to farm diremite web...which he only teleports to the banemite during it spawns..

ok i just got e-mail today, i got suspended because of RMTing , but i only got 89k on my char, not sure at retainer but at most not more then 200k, sigh if like this i will never sell anything again.

so now your acc got unfreezed ?

still need to wait 1 hour to get thier live chat, still waiting

me and several fc mates earned more than 2-4mil each person by selling titan runs, some of them seems to be gil buyer too, but we were never suspended.

on the other hand, one of the guy in our ls reportedly bought 20mil from gilbuyer, got suspended for a few hours, gil got confiscated and account unfreezed after.

Squenix hatez rmters more than teleporters.
However, there r some got suspended due to 3rd party macro program or mouse recorder usage. Auto crafters beware.
Multi client box play i think borderline legal(popular for farming dungeons)

Malaysian sell win run

Nope I'm not surprised at all

It's a legit move on their part, but it's still bad. Legit, but bad. They have no way of automatically detecting RMT guys, so they have a check instead. OP said he made a fortune from the market, that means large amount of gil being transferred to him, which raised a flag, and auto-ban. It's not about the amount of gil you have, it's about how much you got and how you got it.

Aion did it too before, banning anyone who gets mailed with a lot of gold. People even grief others by sending gold to people they hate to get them banned. Pretty sure other MMO did the same, how else they're going to detect gold buyers?

Sadly, this is the easy way out. Flag check and auto-ban is lazy. At least they could keep the flag check, but investigate before banning. Someone getting 100k from selling Lominsan Anchovy is clearly suspicious, but someone making 150k from selling HQ rare items that everybody wants seems legit.

How was it?
Able to get any agent?

Lol. Yeah, not surprised at all.

yup typical boleh land

lari tajuk edy lol
I still wondering what happened to those RMT advert i reported all these while
in my blacklist only 2 RMT player with "DELETED" state

your point being?

my status change from RMT to getting hack by RMT, now waiting for unban...

wow.. how about your character ? got roll back or any side effect ?

good to see that you're getting your account back. my only gripe is that real gil buyers actually get unfreezed faster than innocent players

quote from reddit:

lol, they can take all my gil thou, only 150k at tops :/. just idk how long it till take to unreleased my id, i heard some cases have to wait 3 week to get back thier id :/

so they gonna compensate back your subscription time?
it is not your fault afterall

no they will not. its ok, im buzy with real life work

damn they took that long

i dont think it has anything to do with you selling HQ stuff on the market, i've been selling stuff on the market daily, somedays i sell upto a few mils in a single day, have been doing it for weeks now, no ban nothing

you should ask them to extend your subscription due to their misunderstanding...

nah, i dont bother lol, just few ringgit anyway. just kind of suck cant play weekend, now weekday no time to play. From what i read it took 2-3 week to get back my char sigh

Regarding Actions Taken Against In-Game RMT Ads and Illicit Activities (Oct. 1)
RMT and other illicit activities upset the balance of the game and, as such, are prohibited under the Terms of Service.

Because we have confirmed the existence of players who are engaging in these illicit activities, we have taken the actions listed below.

- Date: Sep. 12 – Sep. 30, 2013
- Accounts receiving disciplinary action for RMT site advertisements: 6,154 accounts
- Accounts receiving disciplinary action for illicit activity: 156 accounts
- Action Details: Termination from FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn

- Date: Sep. 28, 2013
- Accounts receiving disciplinary action for RMT/illicit activities: 568 accounts
- Action Details: Termination/Temporary suspension from FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn
* Accounts of egregious violators will be terminated.

- Total Frozen Gil: Approximately 367,700 million Gil
* Gil of temporarily suspended accounts will be confiscated.

Included in the above are players who used/obtained gil, items, or actions through fraudulent means. Although we are taking the utmost care and attention to prevent such actions, players who discover any confirmed cheats should, under no circumstances, exploit or disseminate such information. Instead, we ask that players file a report by using the in-game command [System Menu] -> [Support Desk] -> [Contact Us] -> [Report Cheating].

In addition, the recent maintenance operations have implemented countermeasures to nullify the effects of the aforementioned cheats.

We will continue to take stringent disciplinary action against any accounts with confirmed involvement in RMT/illicit activity; players should take care to steer clear of any activity that violates the Terms of Service. Please be forewarned.

oh mehgerd that amount of gils
at least i know those RMT advert i reported already being taken care off

any tips that can make few mil perday??

I got suspended this morning, getting error 3102 at 1st too, then changed to suspend.

Suspected my account got hacked and being used to advertise selling gil and etc because i found out i have 2 extra characters in other 2 worlds...sent 3 tickets and SE didn't reply any yet.

Wonder how did they get our login details

how can i find their live chat thing?

did you use your email + password combination in any other place? such as other mmo, other forums, etc.
they basically just extract out all the email and password try one by one
best bet will be using new email address and unique password, plus activating the one time password token software.

email yes but passwords are different for all of them. I don't have other forum other than Low Yat.
Ya just downloaded the token software. Didn't know there is a software version until it happens.
Will register when my account is unban...what a bad weekend. haiz....have to wait until Monday night only they start working somemore..

wat does RMT stands for?

Real Money Trading/Transactions
aka gold seller/power lvling etc that involves real money

use 1time software token

any game where its possible, use

too many times heard about hacking/banning due to these ID/password leak

your hard work of 50 hours? 100 hours? all gone if hacked

after 1 month ++

hmm real rmt like us don't get ban

This post has been edited by W0ng0h: Nov 7 2013, 03:25 AM

Of course for agent wont get ban since they're not involved. For farmers, it's a different story.
Depending on the transactions as well. China rmt are heavily ban because they engage in large amount of transaction continuously.
Malaysia RMT on the other hand did small amounts.This also depends on game as well.
Games like ff14 i'm pretty sure it's small amount.
The game is still in developing stage. We'll see about that later on.
SE is reputable to perform large scale pest clearance.
It's just a matter of time we'll see how many "real rmt" could really survive long enough.
You can be a farmer, but dont ever try to be an agent ^.^.
There'll be times you need to vomit out huge losses

btw, we got ban before lar
