Nordenwatch seems like a nice dude, friendly, considerate, intelligent etc. Don't know him at all.
But, man. When I read his explanation behind why he chose to do RMTing, it's quite disappointing to say the least.
Obviously money can be a great temptation for people to do what is morally wrong, but in essence someone that does something so vehemently against the rules of the server for monetary gain it says a lot about a person's morals and ethics.
I find it hard to really trust anyone that in essence has lied, cheated, and stolen then explains that boredom motivated them to do it. All in the same breath as saying, "whether or not you like it, pixels are worth money so if I was quitting, why wouldn't I sell them?" Parapahrasing here but that was the gist of his reasoning.
Nordenwatch, hope somewhere you found a code of ethics and some sort of moral compass within yourself.
Hard to believe that though, because one thing I have learned in life is people are either trustworthy, or not.
When someone crosses the line of moral codes by combining lies, deceit, money, and a lack of discipline so jarring that out of "boredom" they can cross that line without conscience I steer clear of that type of person.
Not that it matters, I don't know this dude and he don't know me. I just felt like commenting because I find RMT and the activities surrounding it disturbing. I also found his reasoning behind why he did it disturbing too.
Yeah it's just a game, and they are just pixels. But honestly, if someone does this in a game I wouldn't trust them outside the game.
