Why do so many people care so much about what other people do for fun? Just because you dont want to buy/sell accounts (or PL or twink or buy epic MQs or whatever) is a piss poor reason to disallow others from doing it. And I wont even get into the "its classic" stuff since recreating the "classic experience" is not the same as making an exact clone of live and the players and the world as it existed in 99-01.

Too much of an enabling tool to escape a bad reputation. In this type of environment, reputation is the only currency we really have.

If the goal of the server, and it's "mission statement", is to replicate a classic experience, then shouldn't it try to remain classic?
This seemed to be tossed out the window back in 2010 =D
IE 2 boxing and Variance.

Banning account sales on this website will not end account sales.

So because you are bad at picking friends, no one should be able to buy/sell accounts? If you are truly concerned that some character could be your arch nemesis hidden behind a newly-purchased account... why should EVERYONE ELSE make a change instead of just you?

Because account selling on a server that Rogean has stated will never be wiped is going to get out of hand.

Kunark's been out for 2 years. People with unlimited wealth can afford to buy up rez bots, port bots, alts, and park a character on every single raid target. It's having a huge negative impact here, and will eventually do the same on red.

And this is coming from someone that originally leveled accounts up and sold them for plat to get started here.

Personally I dont really care. I refuse to play a character that wasnt mine from creation and Ive got enough money Ill likely never sell an account again. But at least be persuasive rather than just whining about something you dont like.

Why should.someone who can afford what is basically just "nice things" not be allowed to buy nice things? You guys arent making real arguments here.

What do you think is going to happen when Velious comes out and TMO has a geared 60 on every single faction?
