That statement is base on myth.
Sony could, at any time, use to have an emulator shut down because they only the intellectual property that is everquest. What they probably couldn't do is collect damages because Rogean et. al. aren't profiting and they've known about p99 for 5 years and haven't done anything about it and so a counterclaim that Sony hasn't fails has failed to protect its IP could be made.
But could Sony shut p99 down? In a heartbeat. If nothing else, they could lawyer it to death.

Exactly, as long as Rogean and co are not seen to be making profit from this, Sony will do nothing.
So seeing as the website or game cannot be used to make money for Rog and co... do you blame people for accusing him of being in on the RMT? As it seems to be the only way on the sly any money can be made?
Of course I am just debating not accusing here.

LOL. If they were making money from RMT, Sony would know. They would shut down this project1999 in a heartbeat. Now take a second to let that sink in.
Notice how the project1999 server is still running? I really hope I don't have to spell that out any further.

Just like Rogean and co have shut down every item/plat seller on P99...
WRONG
But you carry on being naive, things can be done on the sly without any direct connection/dealing with someone.
How would Sony do this without infringing people's freedom? They're not the NSA
