Account Selling
 
From what I have seen account selling is the way to make plat on this server. I guess everyone does it So what is the deal with it?

The deal is that if I know you purchased an account, I won't group with you.
:rolleyes:

and I'd be sad how?

Some people actually play eq for the social aspect... Crazy right?

I have been wondering about this too. I see the post about RMT bans, but apparently trading accounts or selling accounts for plat is OK? Seems sketchy to me, but this isn't my server so I'll just move along. :)

If people are stupid enough to pay real money then that's on them. Just keep in mind this isn't an official server where the people running it are obligated to do anything for you if it goes wrong. Also if for whatever reason the server was to die, that's money you've wasted.

If people are stupid enough to play an video game to interact with people I think you are the stupid one. People buy accounts cause it is cheaper to buy an account that has 100 hours on it for $100 then to play them 100 hours. Everyone is grown and time is money and those who dont have time would rather just throw a couple dollars then waste the next 2 or 3 months of there time grinding.

Personally I'm not a fan of account selling. One of the things I liked the best about this server when it started was the small community aspect and everyone tended to know who everyone else was. Selling accounts defeats this. Back then, being a jackass in game and screwing other people over had an impact on your reputation and word got around. Now, you can just sell your account for 200,000 plat and start fresh with another level 50 character.

I wish It would go away, however its not against the rules so It's something we'll have to live with.
