I keep Norrath fresh and entertaining, people need a break every now and then from Derubael and Sirken throwing out bans for minor transgressions.
But that is the P99 ban complex, by utilizing permabands heavily as opposed to warnings and moderate suspensions; it forces neck beards to RMT for plat to plvl and re-gear, since gear is 99% of the EQ experience a banned account can cost a player hundreds of real life dollars.
Bans go out harshly cause those Visa's hit Platlord and Supremacy's bank accounts so fast and hard, it creates a ridiculous surge in demand. Rogean and pals are indirectly responsible for this, and the new rules to raiding create that artificial scarcity as well.
Everything the staff does funnels money into RMT, which gets funneled into donations, the RMT screens that catch and ban players are simply removing big time buyers that the staff KNOWS will buy again thus funneling in more money.
It's a fucking CCA racket man.
