In-Game currency in endless
 
And because as such, I just don't see the big deal. Someone earned the plat, then they distribute it among people that are willing to pay for it. The plat was and still is in the economy so why do you fellas make such a big deal about it ruining the game?

RMT has I dunno.. Only been around since Online RPG's and I don't and have never seen a game ruined by RMT. Certainly isn't being ruined now, and certainly won't in the future.

You white knights make me sick. If you really wanna make a big deal out of something, why not point out how 90% of the population here Pirated the Titanium Client off some Torrent hosting site. Now that is SUPER illegal and can lead to serious legal ramifications in RL, where as saying screw it, I'll spend $20 for 10k gets a stern head shake/finger wag in the virtual world and potential banning, but nothing else.

Just m2c from someone who doesn't care to spend a small amount of money on a game, post buying the retail copy.

Are you blind? Every MMO was destroyed by RMT. Paying to be ahead is just that. Paying to be ahead. If everyone paid to be ahead we'd all be dead even doing nothing and acquiring nothing. Makes the game meaningless get it?

Lol, please, show me proof of these MMO's that were destroyed by RMT.

I work my ass off for my money, 60+ hours a week. When and if I find the time to play I still like to be competitive or a contender. In my eyes that's just the same as working my ass off in-game, except I am putting my time in to the REAL world. If I decide to spend some of my hard earned cash to help me get to the end of a game at a faster rate, so I can compete, then what's the big fucking deal?

This isn't Pay to Win, it's Pay to be able to play.

How is the Plat still in the economy if they banned the accounts? 400 accounts must have taken some out of the economy.

Also you fuck heads buying plat make me sick and the fact you keep bringing up pirated software or copyright infringement is laughable. I may have pirated the software now but I had bought how many of their fucking disks back in the day to play?

Titanium client is so ancient I can't believe Sony doesn't just have a free download of it. The only copies being traded were published years ago and are just resold as used. Its not like they are making money off it anymore.

Slavery has been around since people figured out having others work for you is good for you.

Huh? Buying plat makes you neither.

If you want to compete, join a real guild and compete. If you want to be a contender, play the actual game and contend.

You're just being dishonest with yourself. You bought pixels because for some reason you felt inferior without them. This is likely a trend which likely pervades your life outside Norrath, too.

I just want you to know: you're okay, just being you. <3
