Also, search feature is back in a way where they can see a list of names now...while they could always have sent us tells pre-patch, it was much more difficult to see 200 names at once for your spam-telling pleasure.

Really? How do you know what my vision for my original post was? Are you clairvoyant? Maybe I had no vision, or considering this is a hot thread, maybe everything has happened all according to my evil and insidious plans. :3

I got the exact same spam as Forerunner instant blacklist + report.

That was just the other night during our darkhold run well after wards how come you were the lucky one that got the tell ^_^

[Kinseykinz]

I wasn't trying to troll the OP or even imply I think the game is Dying... I was just adding an idea why I thought maybe they were seeing more RMT /t's all the sudden. My intention was not to be mean. Sorry if it was taken that way. Merry Christmas all

[Mireille]

The RMTs return, and they are soliciting you ingame. Happened to some ppl I know.

Convince them to all go play SWTOR instead....

/display sarcasm off

The presence of RMT means there are idiots buying gil, nothing more. It's an indication of wasteful spending on the part of some players, not that the population of the game is thriving.

Actually, it's known that RMT won't bother with a game that wouldn't turn a profit if the game itself is dead or dying, while they may make some money, RMT are ran by actual businesses whom have actual offices -- So it may mean "its just players are buying gil and nothing more" but a business is a business, in the end.

[GreyJorildyn]

RMT is not an accurate measurement of a game's eminent success or death. It could just be a gauge of easily exploitable game design.

Cue the people raving for open world crap, etc.

You clearly missed the point, RMTs are running a business. They will go where they can make a profit, a dead or dying game is not profitable to them, therefore, they will not devote time and resources to one when they can make a better profit from other games.
