The poor RMT's...

[sasakusaku]

It might surprise you that some of this gold/gil from these companies is actually supplied by 'legit' players. Had a bud that did this in that other game where he'd farm up gold, sell to RMTers, and then used that money to pay his sub. He made a mistake though and used his main account instead of a secondary one so ended up banned. However, he was back a few days later since his sales more than paid for another account. Also I knew a guild that used a particular exploit in that same game in a raid instance and they made a ton of RL money over a period of 3 months selling to RMTs. Not all are the stereo typical 'chinese' gold farmers and can easily be one of your friends and or guildmates...the whole naming chars as gibberish is a dodge.
