As previously stated, the selling of runs is completely irrelevant to the lockout, coil in its current form does NOTHING to prevent people from buying their way through right now should they really want to.

As long as content requires more than one person to complete (which it should btw in an MMO) there will ALWAYS be someone who will attempt to buy their way through it, this does not mean that people who legitimately wish to play together should be restricted from doing so.
