So I take it you are one of those off-the-grid, live-off-the-land, doesn't have the internet because you can't stand the thought of using something that you didn't mak... oh wait.

RMTing for something in a video game is the same as buying something in RL. Some people like to put the work in to get something directly themselves and take special pleasure in the process. Other people want an end result and are ok skipping the process of getting there by just buying what they want.

Just reading through this thread, I believe a lot of these issues would be eliminated if p1999 content progressed at the normal rate of live rather than having 2 years with stagnated content. Veterans have all this built up PP and gear to use on lowbie alts because they do not have new content to progress with their mains.

There is no fix-action for this other than starting a new server, which many would obviously not want. The results of the current situation seem only natural.

I would love to see a new server created once Velious is released for this very reason. Starting as a blank slate with everyone would definitely rejuvinate a large portion of the worn-out p1999 fans, but I guess this is just a pipedream? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

the issue isn't whether it is easy or not to get, but whether it is unobtainable because of RMT driven play.

i don't see all the ruined game play from RMT that folks are reporting. i see the natural consequences of a 4 year old classic server (based on a 14 year old game) that folks love to play to excess.

Horrible straw man. Since when does eliminating a player greed issue make the game like WoW? Its like saying gay marriage will ruin thr American family.
