Enter message:	[quote][i]Quote from: Cuer[/i] To the best of my knowledge, Square-Enix is not and has not broadly targetted either windowers or gil selling. They don't care about either one enough to do so, although both are technically against the TOS and individual players can get in trouble for them, if they raise a ruckus. What these patches the last few days have been targetting, and what the patch notes referred to, are the gameplay hacks that have been publicized recently. Things like speed hacks, being able to ignore the physics of the game world, etc. Those are the sort of thing that S-E [i]should[/i] be paying attention to, IMO, and that should never have been allowed to exist in the first place. The number one rule when making a client/server type of game like this is: never trust the client. That rule was apparently lost when S-E first developed FFXI for the PS2, even though they had to know it would be ported to the PC eventually. So, people can do things with the client that should never be possible, such as removing graphics files to not see certain mobs. S-E is now trying to play a catch-up game to keep major gameplay hacks out of the game, because the client wasn't designed properly to begin with. Any work that deals with these issues can spread over into breaking things like the windower, but it seems highly unlikely that they are directly targetting it. Of course, if they really wanted to take care of these issues, they would rewrite the client interface and provide a windower built-in, but that doesn't seem likely anytime soon.[/quote]
