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~

Sums it up nicely. I feel like you must have been banned for RMT to be getting this worked up over a positive use of the server like this. I am sorry that you don't agree with it but it's not your box and you don't make the rules. We all sat down and agreed we wanted this to go through as long as we could make sure it was legitimate on all sides, and thats exactly what we did.

That should really be sufficient. Clearly the RMT rules are there for specific reasons - blocking fundraisers for children's cancer foundations is not one of them
