This really is the exact same thing. These are GAMES.

If you believe differently, you've been manipulated by a market.
I wonder why no one brings up opportunity cost? I think that's the real reason RMT exists.

So lets say you are starting brand new on the server and you want to have a lot of plat to twink alts and buy expensive items:

1) Time taken to level to 60... its going to take a bit... 3-4 months? Anyone got an average /played to hit 60?
2) Time taken to be able to farm rare items? Being able to get the camp? Join a raid guild and buy items to sell with dkp?

Or you could just buy $200 dollars worth of plat and skip to the end? If you make $30-40 dollars an hour on average.... that honestly seems rather dirty cheap.

See my point? Take morality out of it also.... people do all kinds of jerk wad things in mmorpgs that if we were worried about morality we would not allow.
