I mean, TMO makes alt accounts and buys alt accounts so that they can use MQ/SEQ hacks on p99 without worrying about their precious pixelz being banned.

Where is that plat going? Gearing alts/mules? rofl [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Honestly can't say that I doubt it. I do also believe that the current system for tracking RMTs/boxers is completely inadequate. I reckon that a solid 60-80% of people doing both do not get caught. I'm unsure entirely if it's just because they don't have a decent system to track this stuff or if it's lack of volunteers as guides/gms, but rogean can always do another GM/guide app for the server to help.

What's fun about you is that you are so blatantly idiotic and so glaringly deluded that you actually become a comedic icon. Post more like this please, I almost spit up my coffee!

buys alt accounts with platinum, sells loot for only platinum, where does the platinum go!?!?!?

Buys alt accounts + guild recharging + other items like BCGs etc + raid mats


but really, where does the platinum go!?!?

They must sell the platinum and then buy the platinum to buy the other stuff... its' the only logical answer!

What constitutes sufficient evidence of RMTing to be turned into the server staff for investigation? A /tell from someone saying they will sell something to you for real money? Too easy for someone to just play it off like "I was just kidding, bro." Plus, the professionals who allegedly make a significant income off of this activity aren't dumb enough to do that.

I imagine it would take some sort of proof of electronic transaction to a specific account, and then tying that account back to a EQ character name once the in-game trade is completed. And the only way for us, the player, to do that is to participate in the RMT itself and risking a ban ourselves. And why would we do that? Certainly the non-legit person doing RMT is completely okay with allowing RMT to happen, so they wouldn't be putting up the infos/screenshots.

So a rules-abiding player is forced to participate in illicit activity in order to provide sufficient evidence for the server staff to take action on?

The server staff isn't going to shell out real money to a PayPal account just to follow the trail to get rid of an RMTer... not worth the money to do so, unless they can force the payment company to withhold the payment due to services not rendered/product not delivered.

I know it's one thing to say "provide us evidence and we'll look into it", but how specifically would you like us to do so, in order to not put our own accounts/reputations at risk for being tagged for RMT?
