I agree the auction hall ruined the game, but not the RMT part of it. Just the whole concept of an AH for in game gold or RMT turned the game into total dogshit and it took multiple years and more or less a complete redesign of the game to fix it.
As for the MMORPGs, I guess "solving" the problem is relative. For a company the amount of time spent by CSRs on RMT related things probably dropped by a huge amount, and their profits went up. I'm sure the brass over there considers the problem solved.

Well, I know the population took another dip with each RMT effort in EQ2. Games and company tanked, so problems not solved.
Players generally don't fear the punishments. Either thinking they are to smart and will get away with it or think the companies don't punish players so there is no risk.
Public naming might go a long way to changing that perception.
