I don't think I should feel entitled to an entire spectrum of classes because I've leveled a few on my own.
Exactly !
Taking that logic into account, I could just as well say I've played 8 different MMORPG's and taken over 20 chars to max level, taken a char to lvl 70 back on live so that should give me the right to skip leveling now...absolutely the lamest kind of logic i've heard.

There you go for one good reasons. Thousand more good reason as well.
Now give me 1 good reason NOT to ban.
not how it was meant to be is a poor reason look at variance etc.

and i havent seen one piece of real evidence that it was a bannable offense just people saying it used to be. people have posted they knew account sellers i id bck in 2000. he term ebayer became famous fro eq account sales.

why not? increase in the number of power levelers meaning less exp spots for new or anyone that wants to exp in a popular pl dungeon.

just using the same logic to show how its invalid. Time spent on one toon should not entitle you to skipping the leveling of other toons.
Simple as that.

vast majority of RMT transactions are small platinum sales, and there's really no way to police it

can ban account sales all you want, won't stop RMT's.

it's consensual by both parties, not sure why anyone cares about it honestly.

What I can't get over is the incredibly low price of accounts.

100k for a lvl 55 Wizard? What!?

No thanks, I'd rather farm 1 fungi tunic.

Some people don't have the time to sit at one camp for hours on end, just a few hours here and there to level up. Used to be a great way for casuals to make money but screw them right? back to farming seafuries to try and save for that fungi. If only people could play the way they wanted....

not aiming at you just using fungi example =p
