Nordenwatch's Guide: Rags to Riches

[radditsu]

People who care about fake money in a fake world that they have no authority over said world really lack perspective and should take a step back. Realize being upset over a game is YOUR problem. Not the issue of others. The staff have a vested interest in keeping whistles clean. All others only have an interest in ethics... and those opinions do not matter.

This. But he lost everything and now it's over.

Well, except the car.

I totally agree with the getting upset part, and the general sentiment that this is a game not a moral quandry. But c'mon, you can't pretend that RMTers don't significantly impact the economy that the rest of us (honestly) participate in. That seems like an legitimate interest to me.

If you mean he didn't physically hurt anyone, then sure. But he hurt everyone who honestly participates in the Project 1999 economy (and hurts the devs that have worked so hard to keep this a clean server).

Sarcasm!!!!

That's what always makes me laugh about these RMT players who say they made a few grand cashing out.

It amounts to Pennies an hour when you combine all the time you sat haggling in the tunnels.

I bet Nordenwatch cashed out his 10M pp for something like $20,000. If he had 100 days of playing time, that works out to $8 per hour if I am doing my math correctly. That's a McDonald's level wage, but it isn't pennies.

Not a bad way to make 8 dollars an hour

I worked at blockbuster making more or less that and I was wishing I was playing EQ every hour
