So it's okay for me to sell everything and anything related to p99 or classic everquest for in game plat?

Information specifically.

I'll join an 'enemy' guild just to sell information about them. Based on Loriman's "bounty" this is acceptable atm. Given the staff have no closed this yet.

C'mon let's not get crazy here. What I'm saying is, the staff are people: there's a guy sitting behind a keyboard being Llandris or Sirken or whoever. I don't think those people are stupid: they've shown plenty of evidence of just the opposite in these forums.

So if you and I can both tell that my offer is different from people trying to better themselves through RMT, and the staff aren't dummies, then why can't they?

But you're literally offering to pay people in game plat for information outside the game.

There are no exceptions for being a 'good guy'.
Which I think you are, a good guy with good intentions. Just your decision here is clearly unknowingly a bad move.

I think the "outside" part is questionable, since the results of my findings may well impact the mechanics of the game itself (or, more likely, will just satisfy my curiosity ... but there's a chance it will affect the game).

But look, I hear your concern. One person says "hey I'll give 100k plat to the first person who donates $40 to my breast cancer charity", and it sounds ok so the staff allows it. Then the next person says "hey I'll give 100k plat to anyone who donates to my (100% fake) charity", and before you know it we've got RMT. The whole slippery slope thing is real.

But what I'm saying is, this isn't establishing a legal precedent that RMT is ok. This is human beings drawing a hard-line ("RMT" is ok if and only if the only beneficiary is the server/common knowledge). As long as they hold to that line, and are able to clearly tell whether an "RMT attempt" falls on one side of it or the other, then there's no slippery slope risk.

I've said what I have to say. It's up to the staff.

Whether Paying in game currency/items for information outside the game is allowed or not.

^this isn't the Bug Section. While I commend you for trying to find a solution. It's still wrong how it was presented and disrupts the natural flow of things.

And I'm not Ranting Or Flaming. I am discussing the Topic.
