So what if people sell platinum and gold plans for gil?

What I'm noticing in all these threads is people who don't understand how buying bands from players and buying gil from RMT are two separate things. To clarify:

Buying Eternal Bands from players
Player X bought the band, and wants to sell it. Player Y buys it from him for 5 million gil. That gil was on an active player who was spending it on in game trades. Player X now has it, and if they buy items off the market board or from other players, the gil now belongs to Player Z.

This is currency circulation. There is no inflation of gil being circulated, and is legal.

Buying Gil off RMT bots
Player X decides to go to some shady website. Dont buy the gil, it remains on the bot account and not in the circulation of the game currency. Buy the gil, and now there's an abnormal amount of gil gained through inhuman means.

This gil isn't in the normal market circulation, this inflates the economy. This is illegal.
