I don't think you are getting it Qinsteel. My money is already being allocated elsewhere. While I appreciate you are really trying to drive your point home, Its not really getting at anything.
I am just trying to bring up a point that I believe is in the mutual interests of both myself as a user and P1999's staff as service providers. Take a moment to let this setting sink in for you. My competitive advantage is not to host an emulator server. But Rogeans is. Why should I misallocate my competitive advantage when i can pay someone to do theirs? Just stop with the moot point already.
A forum is used for exactly these kinds of discussions and discovery. Just cause something is "a way its been" doesnt mean its the "way it has to stay". Especially if gain can be had here.

Picaro11 you may very well be right and I am not getting the point and I also agree a forum is the place to discuss new ideas and present different view points. However; this entire thread is about RMT. and the facts are:
1. Rogean is allowed to operate an Everquest emulation (IP owned by another entity) as long as no profit is made from said emulation. I also believe that includes profit from anyone involved in the emulation.
2. Rogean is required to enforce such rules
3. RMT sellers are making money on the P99 emulation
4. The entire server could be forced to shut down should the IP owners decide to bring legal action against Rogean
So what am I missing Picaro11 when my point is play by the rule or leave because IMO RMT are threating the P99 server and everyone who plays. So if a few people have to wait a month or more to play again while its sorted out. That is the reality that RMT people have forced on to everyone playing and that is where your anger should be directed and not the messanger.
