First of all, human beings are fundamentally lazy. Arguing against human nature doesn't change it. We all seek the path of least resistance, as well we should. Second, even if I agreed with the notion that housing in an MMO should be an achievement (Which I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT), then if you want to combat RMT, you don't gate that content behind gil, the one thing that RMTs supply. It simply does not make sense.
