After a quite unsucessful journey into two other MMORPG realms( CoH and WoW) I was wondering what was going on in Quetzy? I was thinking of re-activating my account when a few thoughts entered my head...Are all the reasons I quit still present?

Are the gilsellers still running the AH? Is everything still overpriced?

Are the WHM's still standing by there destined-to-fail revolt?

Those are the two reasons I quit, the insane price of almost everything and the way people were acting about all WHM's when a few idealist set a new sterotype. If either of those has changed I might be back in Vana'diel...

Also, have they added any cool new quests/mission/updates?

Thanks everyone. Might Cya soon...O.~

What are you refering to with the WHM revolt? I never got that memo.

Oh, and everything is still over priced. Oh, and if the gil sellers were running the AH, a bunch of stuff would be a lot cheaper than it is now.
 
The gilsellers keep stuff at a steady price or lower because they need the stuff to sell fast or they don't get their work quota for the day/week/ whatever.

The items are going up in price and are becoming so expanentially priced because everyone thinks the gilsellers are losing there touch, gaining the upper-hand over them, and getting greedy.

Gilsellers work to feed there families, even if it is by an illegal method.

The people driving up the price work just so they can say "w00t 1mil m0r3 g1lz0r5 h4h4h4!"
 
The price of everything went up, but it's pretty evenly spread so unless your main gil-making method involved getting gil from NPCs, you'll be fine. Some farming spots are better or worse, same with fishing, crafting, gardening, HELM, etc. so you might need to re-think your money making plans.

Gilsellers hardly "run" anything now; they're still hanging out in Ordelle's but they do a really crappy job of it (a THF in my LS is getting really good at claiming Stroper Chyme from gilseller teams - or at least, that's what he says >.> ).

New quests... there's a bunch of new ENMs, which are kinda like BCNMs only they give exp, there's no exp loss for dying in them, you don't need to use seals to enter, and you have to wait 5 RL days before entering the same one twice. Rewards for the ENMs are pretty nice, but you won't get as much money doing those as doing a BCNM or something.

The CoP storyline has been expanded a little bit with each patch, and the current patch looks like it'll be the last chapter in the story.

Finally, SE's hinted at some new quests with the next patch. It sounds like one of those quests is a chocobo race of some sort...
 
About that bit of WHM tele-taxi revolt (if that's what you meant), it failed. But the tele price is going up naturally due to demand/supply. If you want to get anywhere quickly you now have to offer >1000g.
