Is it just me or are all these gil sellers ran by 14 year old kids?

I wouldn't doubt that they are all ESL from outside of the US. Sitting next to that guy trying to save the Nigerian prince via email.

Most of them are automated programs not even real people, real people cant send messages as fast as rmt do. My wife and i both play and we can get the same tell at the exact same time from the same rmt mule, something that's impossible for a normal player to do. the program is also probably designed to send messages occasionally to a test mule to see if its going though and change the tell if the message is blocked.

I mean, like really who taught them to run a business? XD (Yes this is a post of me making fun of them. As they really are pretty pathetic. )

Like, why do they think that spamming you over and over multiple times will get people to want to buy from them? More importantly, do they understand that 1000k is 1 mil? I swear they run these business' to make money but have no clue how to run a business!

Anyways, enough ranting. Is there a way we can report these jerks? It gets annoying to get tells everyone 5 mins from them specially when I know my self I would never buy off such idiots in my life. XD It is like, "I spam u with horrible grammar will you buy me gold?" lol get out! :P

Actually, they're generally owned by older people abusing 12 year olds in sweat shops, having them use bots on hundreds of throwaway laptops. Much like any cheap good that China partakes in, you're pretty much looking at child labor.

Whatever they're doing it apparently works, because if they had no buyers they would simply give up.

I'd honestly be curious to see a documentary or something on the daily life of an RMT.

There was a documentary on RMT I can't remember what it was called though.

I recall that some of the big companies put on a legitimate act, had nice offices and employed college students on a part-time schedule. Their advertising tactics were to approach players in a friendly and well spoken manner, some farm their own currency and some get it from other sources.

Those sources were run down back room establishments crammed full of shady individuals working around the clock to with no downtime. Some also try their hand at selling directly and are the most likely the variety we're dealing with in this game

English usually isn't their first language. By taking up space, it forces it you to see it. The text doesn't matter as long as the website is in there. I'd honestly be curious to see a documentary or something on the daily life of an RMT.

There was one made about a decade ago, focusing on WoW:

Yeah, I was gonna say... Yes they probably are 14 year old (or younger) child laborers. I feel bad for them. Not bad enough not to blist them, though.
