You're contributing to part of the reason you can't get that fungi, trak BP, or epic drop to begin with.

Also, you're spitting in the face of the staff who donate countless hours... You're paying someone money and allowing them to make money off staff's donated time. A considerable amount of time.

When you're donating money to Pantheon in exchange for no-drop items, you're not doing either of those. And it's not like staff-sponsored events like the Pantheon pledge drive are regularly happening over the last 5 years.
I highly doubt you could eke out a living on RMT. The amount it paid was not near enough. Most of the cash came from people "cashing out" at the end of their EQ career or some such nonsense not locking down a mob for hours at a time to make $6 USD.
