Square Enix, maker of the PS2 and PC MMORPG Final Fantasy XI game banned players for who have violated the PlayOnline Member Agreement for, among other things, “monopolizing monsters” – ie: the practice of large, high-level parties camping at points where particular rare items appear, blocking others’ attempts to obtain such items and thereby controlling prices for such items within ingame auction houses.
