Daliant admits to RMT, will GMs even ban someone who openly admits it?

That's the one that is going to open with Classic - Velious but have legacy items dropping correct? The 'not really Classic but tagged that way' alternative to p99?

Yeah. P1999 isn't really classic but is tagged that way too.

Please explain, I'm merely an outsider looking in. But even if they are crazy, is my argument that their community is more inclusive and cooperative than P99's any less valid? And the fanatics in the P99 community can be just as batshit crazy.

When PC gamers first came into the server, it was like the end times. They had just got their server back from the crazy heathens of SOE to have it fall to the malicious, hacking scumbag children that all PC gamers were. No one could be trusted. They would rather have the server shut down than have PC dogs breathing the same air as them.

Don't think this is the case from my experiences, there are some weirdos over there, but that's the norm for any server really.

You mean...people would have to level up their own toons? That would work in a Utopia. Sadly, people will want to have high level toons without having to put in the effort of leveling them up. If they can't obtain the toons through platinum, they will obtain them through other means, including RMT. Its very difficult to definitively determine a character (account) has changed hands to another player.

Honestly, plat account sales are better for deterring account RMT than banning plat account sales. Its kind of like the media's battle with piracy, they'd win if they made it easier to obtain their material through proper means than simply trying to end piracy.

I've already countered this...

actually banning people for breaking the rules is the best deterrent of all but that obviously doesn't happen here

[Daldaen]

Fine let them, then ban them for RMTing.

ban plat account sales so if any account changes hand no matter which method it would be against the rules and said account can be ban without any rule lawyering
