Excuse me sir, but I do believe I personally investigated, researched, compiled, and banned over 400 accounts for RMT back in March. This count did NOT include account of platinum sellers, only buyers, but I assure you that number was also in the hundreds. RMT bans continue to happen on a weekly basis, you just don't hear about them.
And zero effect? I do believe we hit several sellers hard enough that they are just scraping by. There is no way to completely eliminate RMT, but we can work to curb it. So yes, when I put in dozens of hours into tracking and compiling RMT bans, I'm going to take offense when you try and call us corrupt or insinuate that we don't care, because you clearly don't know anything and just like to tinfoil hat because it's the cool thing to do.
As far as Tiggles goes, you let me know when he gets that character unbanned, k? As you stated yourself, you aren't even working off of facts - you're going off second-hand information and allegations. Again, the server has had a few rough patches with former staff members - but I'd challenge anyone to find real evidence of something like this happening with any current staff members. So yes, if this is the way you feel, I'd say gtfo - I don't know why you'd want to play on a server you view as "corrupt" ran by a staff that you think show favortism.

Once again, I applaud staff efforts to combat RMT through your ban of 400 accounts. What proportion of those actually stuck?
No tinfoil hatting or second hand information here, specifically highlighted confirmed generalizations or are you denying that there has been staff impropriety in the past, that leadership of prominent guilds is most often at the core of RMT operations or that when you do ban RMT is the exact same people who are back the next day rebuilding their empire?
For the record, I don't think there is a "vast GM RMT conspiracy" going on but I think valid arguments can easily be made that GM policies and attitudes both indirectly and directly benefite those pursing RMT aspirations.
You ask why I play here if I think it's so corrupt? I don't think it's unreasonable at all to think something is great as want to improve on it. I'd much rather institute a system that directly benefited GMs and Dev's for the efforts than those who actions directly retard the actual playing of the game.
