I came, I saw, I RMT'd, I got banned, I tried a brief comeback, Had a great time :)
So first off...
Point blank. I RMT'D, got caught, and banned in the last wave. I honestly didn't understand how serious that rule was, but when I went to do the RMT transaction, it was perfectly clear to me the community considered it a dangerous act. I went back, read the rules clearly, shrugged it off, and did it anyways...(not that I am a super renegade, lol, I just honestly didn't think it would end up like this). I didn't even try to be creative or hide it. I didn't buy 1 item and just sell it, or pay real $ for a PL (like EVERYONE has switched too now). I just bought plat (and paid for a PL with it). I am NOT mad at all at the Dev's, they made it clear. I don't even care about the money I lost. The couple weeks I played with some nice gear was worth it. The only real defense I will offer is I am a father of 4, with a full time job. I make an extremely comfortable living... and when it comes to gaming now a days, I have far more money than time. That's it. No Harm, no foul. For my part, when I read that the real issue was "The server can be shut down" if it makes money... then I realized.. for that reason alone - it's not cool what I did.. and I certainly didn't want to spoil other people's fun. So in that regard, I am thankful I got banned. Anyways - the community here is absolutely FANTASTIC. Tons and Tons of nice people here! If I don't uninstall now I will eventually buy a PL (been fighting that feeling off for a week or so now) and for that reason alone I am censoring myself and moving on. But I wanted to Thank the Devs / team for doing something like this. For a brief moment I got to relive some part of yesterday... Blessings to you all. -Val | ||

The only reason RMT is not allowed here is because the people who are in charge are the only ones explicitly excluded from the venture. But someone like platlord making $x/year off plat/item sales does not risk the life of the server. Don't believe that lie. It's more believable that Rogean would just pull the plug on the whole server because he is tired of making platlord rich without being able to partake in the profits than Sony seeking retribution and forcing that same outcome. Now, there is some merit in the argument that RMT hurts the plat economy on the server, but that is another RnF thread. At the end of the day, you are banned because you broke rules that are tantamount to "If I cant play with this toy, than no one else should be able to either." Rules that have been around since the servers conception but shockingly do nothing to stop RMT, and instead just hurt the low level and new players. It's the war on drugs for p99: ineffectual laws, extensive man power invested in enforcing the laws, little to no results, and in some cases counter-intuitive outcomes, such as this specific case. Sorry.

Personally, I respect that you're taking it like a man and not trying to lie and weasel your way out of the ban like so many other past offenders tend to do here with pathetically transparent wide-eyed fake innocence or hilarious self-indulgent angry tantrums.
