People like you disgust me... "Why bother working for something if you can just buy it"... Lazy ***, this game isn't built so you can get ***easy by putting gil where your mouth is. If you want to jump servers with crap load of cash, take that ***to WoW where it belongs.
This might be the most fail thing I've ever seen anyone say on here. You realize almost everything on this game is bought with gil right? Unless you go craft everything you use from scratch. I don't see why its absurd to buy items with your own gil. If you are refering to this game as a series of accomplishments that are being bought then you are in for a rude awakening about MMOs in general.
Maybe you're not getting my point. What I'm saying is EVENT strictly. Merc'ing items puts people who have been working hard to get this said item in an event/egls who might have been waiting a really long time to have to wait a bit longer, and what do they get out of this? Nothing. They get shorted because the LS leader/high ranking members are getting a little extra gil pay-out from letting the person merc said item before the member of the ls.
You assume people in the LS mercing the item actually need said item and/or are not okay with a gil split in return for getting the item later.
Sorry for Trolling, that wasn't my intent, although successful, but still. Some ls leaders would care less about their members, and would put anyone behind them for a little jingle in their moggiebags.
At the end of the day everyone on this game is shady and out for themselves. Some people are more upfront about it than others. I believe its an individual responsibility not to be in a situation where you're getting ***. Its your fault if you join a LS that is doing shady ***. I've had friends sit in a shell where the leader built 4 relics 1 mythic in two years while leading. Obviously it was shady as *** but they are the ones who were HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE for letting it happen.
When it comes to HNM/Endgame Linkshells... I find it absolutely amazing how most people serve the Leadership and don't even realize it. In most of these situations, members of these type of shells will only get little to almost nothing for what they put into it. Think about it, the average so-call "loyal" member may put in 25-40 hours a week into camping HNMs for the shell, and in a months time still don't get rewarded with a major item. Because the Leadership still does not feel said member is worthy for lets say a Ridll or A-Body Abj or E-Body Abj or whatever. Personally i never did like shells where Sacks call drops on everything. You can't tell me there is no favortism going on there. LOL! Don't bother.
Only system that's left that is fair, and even the Leadership can't manipulate too much is a Public Point System which is readily available on the LS website, NOT held by Sacks in secret (that's updated regularly - at least 3 times a week).
I will say this, I think the Leadership deserves at best, an additional 25% (of whatever) for the efforts of helping running the shell/event. But for the Leadership to think its our shell we started and we think we she should get everything as we see fit. Its absolutely crazy, and the members that buy into it are obviously HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE or on the "favored" end of the stick where the sacks like them alot so they get called for more loot whether thay make events or not.
Its just amazingly funny hearing people's stories of getting screwed over drops from there LS, when they knew full well where there Leadership was on *** from the start.
Excelior said it best in so many words, know what U are getting yourself into, and don't complain when you are seeing things are going in a direction you don't agree with, just Leave Linkshell and call it a day.
I will note there are some Linkshells on this server that actually are all about the members and the Leaders do everything as Fair as possible, and its not about themselves, its literally about the shell as a whole. The rarity of finding such a fair/legit endgame/HNM LS is about the same drop rate of getting a Swift Belt with TH4 so happy LS huntings. ^^
I'm not hating on any major shell that's out there, if you are a Leader that managed to successfully get lots of members stupid of enough to obey U, make U rich so u can get your Relic and dip, good for you, because U obviously mastered the art of manipulation.
If your Linkshell is fair and legitimate and its NOT about the Leadership, please disregard my entire comment, its meant for Shady Manipulative Leaders/Sacks.
Peace!
