well where is the moral line then? Ok to hang with a rapist but not a murderer? What about someone who say swats people? Or someone that steals from RL friends?
i'd say the moral line is drawn somewhere above moving 0s and 1s on a server hosting an emulated 16-year-old elf simulator

Morals are morals. Yeah the crimes arent the same but the same principals apply.

RMT existed back in the day, and Verant barely gave any fucks. Playerauctions was busy as hell and Verant hardly batted an eye for quite some time IIRC.

It boils down to time is money, so time trades or sells, it's just the nature of things. Try to outlaw the free market, and it will just go underground. How effective was prohibition? How's that "war on drugs" working out so far? Hard to blame people for doing what comes natural, for finding a way to work out a simple trade.

IMO this is a non-event, aside for the fact the the guy admitted to fucking over his friends, which is puzzling why someone would admit that publicly. Anyway who cares, he's just one of many douches that you will find on the server, and in life.

I do however agree that enchanters are extremely fun and challenging to play, and I would encourage anyone who doesn't mind getting ass raped repeatedly and would like to learn how to truly lock down a camp, to give the class a try. Tanks especially benefit greatly from seeing how shit works from the other side.

Tecmos was it you that made the comment about jibekn saying he had $10,000 dollars in his bank account, and you said "that's less than my tax return"?

If yes, did said tax return include your RMT profits?

Also when will <Rathe Mountain Team> form?

For what it's worth, Tecmos.

I miss you

oh and I haven't read the whole thread yet, but If you never answer the question, "how much money did you make", you're a fucking hoser. I mean what the fuck kid, just answer the god damn question.
