Sorry this is illegal I've been informed by Ele (very logical and factual awesome person) that farther down in the "rule thread" (easy to miss) a mod explains much more clearly (should be in OP post) the rules in finer detail. Sorry for the trouble the trade is now void.

This sort of trade is not allowed on this server, as it constitutes a Real Money Transaction.

RMT (Real Money Trade) Sales
Any trading of any in-game objects for real life currency, including but not limited to coin, items, and characters, is not permitted. This is a global server rule as well, and people caught performing these transactions will have all characters involved banned from the server.

Wording is kinda not so clear. But a video game is not real life money. Anything to back your opinion?

From what i get trading RL money for Coin, items and characters is not permitted. No where does it say trading software is illegal. Software is not RL money. Sorry going to defend this unless you have something factual you can show me other then opinion. Sorry i don't mean disrespect from this its just i don't believe people just based on opinion alone.

"Real life currency"

So I should totally be able to sell my p1999 platinum for a nice piece of real estate IRL right, since that isn't currency?

Don't worry though. I'm sure you'll be allowed to "defend" yourself. It's not like Amelinda is going to ASPLODE on you when she sees you rules lawyers, or anything. You're good!

Probably should edit and blank out your original post at this point, now that you know it isn't allowed.

Trading anything that isnt an item on the server for another item on the server isn't allowed really, except Red99 to Blue99, that is how the rule should be written.

Accounts are being traded so it seems more broader then that. If anything if this is illegal at the very least we can have the rule rewritten in a more clearly defined way so that issues like this don't come up, that is if this is not allowed. But from the rule it clearly states money only. I know Mods/Gms/guides are extremely busy and I'm sorry this is becoming an issue but at least we are being civil ^_^;

How about an analogy?

You are a hostage in a bank, along with a handful of other people. A small army of disciplined, trained, armed, and armored men has taken over the bank, is trying to break into the vault, and have guns pointed. The head honcho did mention, though, that they expected to have the safe open within a couple hours, and that after that they will let you go because they have a secret escape plan that doesn't require hostages!

After 5 hours have passed, you start mumbling about how the head honcho terrorist bank robber militiamember (who, remember, holds your life in his hands) said he was going to let you go 3 hours ago. Three of four of the other hostages whisper your way, "Shut the hell up. They probably just haven't got the vault open yet."

You reply, "Well I'm not going to be quiet until they tell me first-hand why we haven't been released yet!" And you stand up and start walking over towards the head honcho with a smug look of confidence on your face, knowing that he is breaking his own rule!

And then you get shot, and you die, because you were dumb.

The end.
