I remember years ago reading a post about gil buying in FFXI. Basically, the guy was justifying it to himself because he could work at a real job for 1 hour and then buy gil with it. However, in order to farm that gil on his own it would take him 6-7 hours. Therefore he was willing to trade his RL money in order to save RL farming time in order to enjoy the game.
Not saying it makes it right, I hate RMT with a passion and used to sport a massive hardon all day whenever Squeenix announced another mass of RMT account bannings, but it does make sense why some people would be willing to do it.

If MMORPG players were around when God said, "Let there be light" they'd have called the light gay, and plunged the universe back into darkness by squatting their nutsacks over it.
