Sad to hear it Tecmos, but it is what it is. I doubt they'd ever IP ban anyone, they always say people are welcome to come back as long as they follow the rules.

Also IP bans are ineffective. All you need to do to avoid them is shut your modem off for several hours and turn it back on. Boom new IP because your old one was reassigned. That poor bastard can't play though.

Lol Swish beat me to it, this just makes my head spin

Good to see you Tecmos, I feel like an idiot for never suspecting anything. Then again you always seemed more into the game itself than economyquest so that's probably why lol

You sound like a shitty human being, no offense. Someone vouched for you and trusted you and you fucked them over. Pure trash.

I can't take offense to the truth. I was shitty to someone who had only been friendly to me. I would do what I could to try to make up for it, not that I expect Kelendil would want anything to do with me now.

He was trying to get into Eve-Online back when I was still Fischsemmel and still with TMO. Not sure if he ended up there or what. Doesn't Liia know him? Or do they just have the same surname by chance?

Players secretly conducting RMT does not in anyway threaten the server. Like I said, the staff obviously has to oppose it, but I would be shocked of sony/daybreak cared that a few people were making trades on a separate forum completely unrelated to the P99 staff.

How does someone spending $$ on a fungi affect you? I derive enjoyment from this game through progressing my characters and playing with people I enjoy talking to - someone I dont know wasting their own money to buy an in game item in no way makes me enjoy the game less.

The staff obviously cant permit RMT, but I just doesnt make sense to me that they waste time conducting sting operations and enforcing it so strongly when the only reason the rule exists is because we dont want there to be any profit that would motivate sony/daybreak to shut it down. I think the profit they are concerned with is more in regard to the server and not individual players. People RMT'd on live all the time, despite it being against the rules, and I never heard of a single person getting in trouble for it. As long as the staff arent running a big RMT ring, or charging subscription fees or something, I dont think the server has anything to worry about.

Its like drugs. I know theyre illegal, and if I were a cop and someone sparked up a joint infront of me I would feel compelled to fine/arrest them (depending on location), but there is no way I'd be sniffing up people's cars actively trying to catch people for it since it is almost completely a victimless crime.
