By the wording, it seems like the staff is more upset at the buyers of RMT than the sellers. They don't care about someone making money. What they do care about is people giving away their money in the name of EQ and not giving it to them.

In my mind, this means they are most likely not directly benefiting from RMT.
Also, if they hadn't earlier, by now they are starting to see dollar signs when they think about P99. Where's my money!?!

I never would have played on this server it it had any fees associated with it, but I'm thinking there's a first time for everything. The SMS system just rescued a shaman I played in 2011 but forgot the password to. I'll oblige the staff today. Thank you.

You sound like an extremely ungrateful self-entitled individual.

Getting gear and money to get gear is like...the only objective in this game. I don't know why people want to shit all over their experience here by RMTing plat so they can "catch up".

Leveling my first character here, scrounging for gear, actually camping everything i needed, was one of the best MMO experiences that I have ever had. Every subsequent super twink alt gets more and more stale and I find no motivation to play them after 20 lvls.

I thought meeting people and having fun was the goal...

if you are only here to "get gear" you should have burned out at least 2 years ago p

My only goal is to have fun, but hunting for gear on my first char was a blast. I don't know why people would try to avoid that experience, especially in this game.

It doesn't occur to you that they also banned the sellers? There is evidence of where the plat went and where it came from. Bans all around, but one seller will likely have many buyers, so more buyers are likely to get punished.

Yeah, I don't understand this either. The entire game is built around gradually acquiring more and more powerful items for your characters. If you rob yourself of that experience then EverQuest is basically just a chat room.

Some people just like a head start. There's a fair amount of keeping up with the joneses in everquest. Why even invite the lvl 40 rogue without his epic, I mean, honestly [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So let me ask you guys this. Whats the difference between people "donating" to pantheon rising for xp potions and people who RMT? Seems all the same to me.
