"Please be aware that advertising in such a manner in itself can be disrupting to other players and we may take action against players who continuously advertise for the above kind of parties."

Think they are banning shouting for Fell Cleaves in general or just ones tied to RMT activities?

I've done it a couple times to get LS members caught up or make some extra cash. Just wondering if people think this is now a grey are or think its going to affect everyone?

seems to me its just when it involves RMT
"We are currently investigating players who advertise power leveling services via Shout/Yell, collect gil from the participants, and then use that gil to engage in RMT-related activity."
first line says it all

The words "and then use that gil to engage in RMT activity" are referring to RMT only. They didn't specify FC /sh will result in penalty.
Im sure If you do FC /sh repetitively day after day, you may be investigated. but no actions will be made unless you are a Involved in RMT.
Simple FC burns to make extra gil is no different then a Merc selling Emps, abysea gear and or NNI etc.

"This also includes behavior that helps facilitate such activity. Please take caution in not supporting RMT-related activity."

This sounds like they'll take action to those people that buy leech spots

If people are fell cleaving selling spots for in game gil to buy in game crap its fine if they are found to be selling gil for real life money its not pretty standard stuff.

Do we really trust SE to tell the difference between someone doing this legitimately and someone doing this for RMT?

I don't.

I wouldn't trust SE to tell the difference betweeen Strom Thurmond and Uma Thurman.

I had made a thread on the official forums about this the first time they made this post, and they said that they investigate thoroughly and only ban if you are using the gil for RMT purposes. I'll see if I can find a link to my old thread, but I think someone already quoted the response in another thread here.
