In the real erozea of course there is some segment of the population that will always take this route if they perceive it as low riskand percieve I as giving some sort of advantage.

They could certainly help reduce it if they can convince buyers that this is a high risk activity likely to get you banned (I dont know the numbers but this does not seem to be the case currently).
And no MMO is a perfect land of butterflies and fairies. In other words, every successful MMO has RMT problems. There is no solution to it because RMT use legit means to advertise their product. Put a level requirement on shouting, telling, or yelling? Okay, that will become a minor annoyance for RMT, but they will suck it up and level to 10. (or whatever the level may be) That kind of solution would hurt only hurt new players.
