Convenience is as much a factor in leaving an immediate discord link and is just as likely a scenario as RMT (if not more likely so long as you aren't a cynic).

You see this kind of behavior everywhere, from FC invites to static invites to selling crafted items. Discord is straight up more convenient for the party organizer, regardless of intent.

Basically, what I'm trying to get across in all my posts in this thread: SE changing anything in the ToS or doing anything to ban PF sellers that look legit will simply harm those who are innocent and not the RMT sellers.



This is the best idea I have seen in this thread. It won't get innocent people banned, and fixes the supposed inconvenience that these parties cause people.

Edit: I just tested this, the first one is possible if you send a random tell to the person (or join the persons party if they havent set the ilvl to 999) and blacklist them that way, what happens is the party becomes greyed out (shown in the below screenshot). The simple QoL change of making it so BL people appear on the bottom would be great.

Lambdafish, I could kiss you right now because someone finally understands me. *wink

On another note, if I am not mistaken one of those selling discord links from the Primal datacenter PF also show up on the Aether datecenter PF as well.
