Time to End Account Buying/Selling?

[Cfred0-]

Didn't read any of the comments but i believe by them stopping account sales will cause inflation up the asshole on everything else because these are what the high end plat holders use money on

Well, with my Financial Times braces and analysis glasses on... I'd say having a couple of 60 accounts bagged is as good an investment in terms of holding value as having a fungi/manastone/RBG/etc banked (as long as the accounts are 'clean')

LOL O RLY? plz elaborate, I might give you credibility if you could tell me the Login name. AND if that turned out to be true, what you're claiming. I had no idea about it and it doesn't negate the fact i'm friends with both IRL and leveled with them till I quit back in june 2011'.

Account sales also give very casual players a chance to make money. Lots of people play this game spending haf their time afk and just popping in once a while. This means they cant group, cant raid, and cant compete with the 20 players on the server that have anything worth looting locked down. Is it fair to take away the one and only chance these people, including me have of ever getting a single decent piece of equipment? Who has the right to claim that their way of having fun should be the only allowable method of playing?

EDIT: I forgot to add that there are so many high level accounts circulating around on this server, that people aren't leveling and selling as many characters as you think. They just get rotated around the server.

This has always been the case..I have brokered the sales of some accounts 2-3 times. As much as people like trying new accounts, its not the same as lvling it yourself. So they get bored..and sell it. Which imo is something they should be allowed to do. Doesnt hurt anyone. And i dont give two shits about someones immersion being ruined. Sorry =)

If you don't want to see it, dont log onto the trade forum. It is VERY rare that someone is spamming an account sale in EC tunnel.

...Grouping what at 60? fungus is a 2 man camp, HS south is a 2 man camp, drusella is a 2 man kill, ragefire is a 2 man kill, crypt (JBB / Hiero) can be done by an enterprising shaman or a 2 man camp. You don't group shit at 60 :P Just hope you made one of the right classes for money making, eh?

What's even odder is most of these accounts can be picked up for 300-400k for a 60. Damn low when you realize you can make that in a few days at fungus or a few good rounds in hs south. Hell, ragefire can almost drop that once if you get the mythical double cof.

What the hell you call grouping. 6 people?? You are either drunk as hell or a idiot with your post.

300 to 400K Now I know you are a idiot.

Honestly don't know how so many people are voting yes. XP is slow enough without the option to buy more characters once you have the plat to do so, who cares if people buy them?

I don't think your ECquest immersion would be ruined by not being able to sell accounts openly.
