So many idiots on this forum. Setting aside the many ways RMT impacts the game itself, it will never be officially allowed on a server like this because Sony would shut it down instantly if they learned that admins were sanctioning it. It's that simple. Stop posting these stupid rationalizations.

Can they though? Given that this isn't even their code any more, seeing as how the DEV's rewrote it. (serious question) And I want proof, not just some that's what I think answer. Back up your statement!

the world has been destroyed by fiat currency.. that you dont understand how this translates directly to in game, is funny. usually the simulations run in reverse.

pay to play is not natural!!

If I decide to spend some of my hard earned cash to help me get to the end of a game at a faster rate, so I can compete, then what's the big fucking deal?

This isn't Pay to Win, it's Pay to be able to play.
So... you want to be "a contender" but don't want to (or can't) put in the time/effort to get there? You think all those hours you spend at work should also count towards your EQ progress at home? You basically want to have your cake and eat it, too. This game was designed to be a TIME SINK. If you don't have the time, you won't get to the same point as someone who does. That's all there is to it. There are lots of people playing on this server who routinely put in 12+ hours per day to advance themselves -- why do you think you deserve the same results when you're unable to put in the same amount of work?

Lol, sorry that I have a life and can't play 12 hours a day or more. After being here for over a year now I still don't have a level 60, because it still takes time to be able to get to the end. Just because I bought plat to gear my self on one account to ease the pain of leveling doesn't mean I get to just skip the time and effort of making it to the end. When I get to play though, it helped out with slightly less down time and a little faster kills. Almost my whole experience here has been solo, with every class I have played. Why? Because I don't have the time to sit in a group for hours.

Having better gear than the avg player at your level does not mean I won't be putting in the same amount of work and time, and if you think it does, than you are a fool.

No need to apologize. I usually can't get more than 4 hours per day in, myself. However, I recognize that this means there are going to be players out there with better gear, more plat, and more high level characters than me. Here's the weird part... I'm totally okay with this. I don't feel the need to exchange my hard earned dollars for virtual pixels just so I can pretend that I have more free time than I actually do. Especially when I know that doing so will eventually result in a ban from the server!

Wat. Yes, it absolutely does mean that. If you've spent real money to get insane twink gear for your level, how can you claim that you've put in the same amount of work? Even if you ended up getting 60 before you got banned, you would've put in WAY less work than you would getting an untwinked character to the same point. If you think an untwinked rogue using cheapo weapons and banded armor will level as fast as a rogue with epic/nightwalker/fungi... I really don't know what to say.

I'm not trying to judge you, man. It's your money, I couldn't really care less how you spend it. I just don't see how you can keep trying to justify RMTing on this server. Some people have 12 hours per day to play, some people don't. If that's not your cup of tea, there are plenty of pay2win games out there. Sorry that p99 couldn't be one of them.

This thread brought to you by the same mind that brought you this quote, regarding monk weapon choice...

No, you will be dealing less damage if you calculate all the times that you will miss. Faster weapons = more hits, slower weapons = less hits. Now this doesn't apply when you use 2hb because those weapons have 25+ damage on them. (At least the 2hb weapons that you wanna be using)
Please, just stop posting. It's embarrassing.
