Step by Step Guide to Catching RMT Characters

Step 1:
For every account offered on the RMT site, manually query database of characters that fit description (level, race, class, items). Should be relatively few characters that match exactly.

Step 2:
Of the few characters in the query, see which ones are played frequently. If character isn't played often then likely suspect

Step 3:
Look at IP addresses that the character's account logs in from. If the account has a long history of logging in from a single IP then suddenly changes to another IP then likely suspect.

How hard is this guys?

They arn't being paid from us to play this game so WTF do they care. If anything it promotes the game to the outside world. You can't even find a plat seller for EQMAC but they sure do have a website just for RMT any thing in the p99 EQ world. I think most people would just come here and buy the plat for a head start.

They spend time monitoring potential 2 boxers, play(ed) babysitter to raiders, and state that RMT is against the rules, so I assume they do care.

No one but sony can make a profit from EQ, with enough people making profits from p1999 sony "could" find cause to shut down p199 or/and eqemu
This is the real reason rmt isn't allowed

There was a Shield of Rainbow Hues pop up on one of your members alts a month or so ago.HE used RL cash to buy. Pretty sure you don't want me 2 start naming names of your fellow guild mates. You act like Tmo is so fucking innocent of everything, it is pretty laughable how much of a fucking retard you truly are.

Actually you are wrong, if we have members participating in RMT I absolutely want to know and want to have it made public.
So please divulge your secrets
