Your premise is flawed in that the sole basis in which you judge the server's health is:

1) The volume of new players joining.
2) The ease in which they can achieve high levels.

If Project1999 were a business and I had a stake in profits, I'd agree with you. But it isn't, so I don't.

Do you really think the P99 guys are going to lawyer up and take it to court?

No - one C&D letter from Sony and that's probably going to be it. How "valid" the case would be doesn't matter.

P99 has received multiple C&D letters. Probably could have funded EQmac for 2years with the stamps alone.

This is a good plan.

Really? News to me. I'll have to take your word on it, unless Rogean/Nilbog comment. I guess it'd be whatever is past a C&D letter then - as in, when they actually got a court summons or something.

they have posted about the C&D letters before, I'm not sure how long ago the last one was, but they (p99) made it clear they've received a good amount.

Apparently the legal department of Sony/EQ whatev sends them whenever they deem anything to even be remotely questionable.

However, If they found that people were making money off this server and they weren't getting their cut, i'd imagine the whole thing would get shut down pretty fast. They'd just need a decent amount of proof.

Yeah like someone getting banned from RMT and providing such proof out of spite.

IB is trying to get the server shut down by generating such a massive flux of RMT off the server sony will notice and get us closed down.

They'd also have to then look deeper, into who is *letting* the RMT happen right?

Maybe this is all engineered, guess you geniuses haven't realized yet.
