I hope posts like these are just trollin, or I am going to need to launch into a long explanation as to how this was verified and ensured to be legit - we went as far as requiring a donation list to be provided and took additional steps to ensure this list could not be forged.
It's not like this was just put on without being thoroughly vetted first, with a host of stipulations, rules, and regulations being applied in order for the event to be allowed. Norova can attest to how complete and inflexible his contract was - and needed to be - in order to put this fundraiser on. Really glad it turned out great and will continue to voice my support for more - despite having to do all the "RMT legwork" in order to ensure everything is legitimate. I am more than happy to do so if P99 and it's players can raise fifteen thousand dollars in a single day! I'm still shocked at this number, and will continue to be shocked until it's bested at the next fundraiser for dying children/dogs/moms/impoverished millionaires/whatever the next charity is. Cant wait for next time!

The server demands zero RMT.
Yet a RMR (real money raffle) was setup. It doesn't matter who the money was for, REAL money was used for a in game item raffle.
If the raffle was for items OUTSIDE of the game this would have been fine (new laptop,tablet, etc...).
Just because the raffle has a "good cause" doesn't change the rules and make it right.
There are a trillion of charities on the internet. Anybody can donate to what ever cause they want at any time. The fact that a item raffle was approved to bring in more donators to this particular "good cause" shows that the people who approved this raffle believe the in game items have REAL money value. Just as any other raffle is.
The people who are in charge of any raffle have items for people to win. People generally donate/play at a chance to win these items of value (granted some do it out of the kindness of their heart but that isn't the majority).
I'm not against this raffle, what I am against is people who make a MEGA FUCK TON LOAD of rules and then when they want turn their head on them it seems to be no problem~
