Two very simple solutions:

1.Ban the sellers.

2.Send out a 1 time warning. (to accounts that were made in the last three months)

This would have been easy and much healthier for the server, it would have kept 600 more people playing the game.
If you just began the server and needed help figuring out how to install it, considering you have a slim chance of figuring it out on your own, usually you go about doing so by using the guide in this link:
http://www.project1999.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2651

Now, mind you, I hear what you are saying, and it isn't that I don't care, but if you look at the bulleted list at the BEGINNING of the guide, it has somewhat of a 'Table of Contents' that gives you an idea of how to navigate the thread and find the information you are looking for. Clearly, you can see a few of the listed points as a LINK, which used to drop you down to said portion, but alas the links are just leading back to the forum homepage... but regardless, let's all assume you aren't an idiot, because we like to give new friends the benefit of the doubt.

Let us scroll down to the second post made by Rogean in the thread, which is the post highlighting our current conversation.. it is listed and bolded/underlined as

3) Global Server Rules

Underneath it, you can find a list of the server rules, one of which includes:

RMT (Real Money Trade) Sales

If you take a moment to read the couple of sentences underneath it, I believe you will find your warning you are looking for. This:

"Any trading of any in-game objects for real life currency, including but not limited to coin, items, and characters, is not permitted. People caught performing these transactions will have all characters involved banned."

Now for my thesis, I know I said earlier that it wasn't like I don't care, but I think I can safely say that the majority of us playing on this server DO NOT CARE.

Have a good one... In fact, let me rephrase it. Maybe you can buy yourself a good one, because you clearly do not want to take the time to earn it.

I have a level 100 SK with over 10,000 AA's on Live, he was created during Kunark and was the only character I ever played. So yes, you are correct that I do not feel like starting over from scratch especially when I am attempting to get new friends to play with me.

As for buying a fun time, we have all just purchased Wildstar. Is it EQ? No, but I can't talk anyone into staying on a server run by devs that make rash decisions.

Please tell us again how the devs enforcing rules that are clearly detailed in the Getting Started post you would have had to click on to get started here is "making a rash decision"?

Didn't seem like a rash decision. Looks like they took their time about it which you complained about earlier. Make up your mind.

Lol this RMT'er is mad. And apparently can't comprehend that [accounts =\= players].


1252 players online right now. Server looks just as healthy as ever. Great job staff!

This announcement and the subsequent bannings sends a much more clear message than silently wiping out a few seller-holding accounts along with their respective buyers every week. There are a lot of people waking up this morning and realizing there is no such thing as a safe site or a safe way to buy items or platinum on p99.

Server seems to be pretty healthy.

Your comment clearly projects what is wrong with your decision making skills. I hope you grow up, and realize it is much more fun to be someone that gives second chances than an executioner.
