By Frank Lewis, Aug 31, 2012
Due to the near release of Final Fantasy XIV new patch, Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, the developers plan to prevent the RMT sites from farming gold in the update. Currently the most famous grinding gold technique for RMT site is to create new many accounts and run leves at Camp Skull Vallet because it rewards players with handful of gold. Then, FFXIV players are facing inflation because of it. 700 accounts have been banned last week, but they keep going back.
