Do you think sell groups are hurting end game community?

I'm looking for opinions here. My server currently has anywhere between 1-6 selling groups in party finder all day long (depending on peak hours or not).

As players try to get their clears or farms going, many players are skilled but just can't get other skilled players to join them so it ends up being a lot of wiping before you can see some success.

The question to be asked is: Would people who sell the runs bother to join and help out other skilled people in clears or farms? I personally have not seen the known run sellers in anything I have done. There is no profit to be made by helping others, is that the mentality of run sellers? I cannot say for sure.

This is why I'm leaving this open for opinions and other views. Perhaps supporting run selling only makes things worse for you and everyone else, perhaps it doesn't matter at all.

I've sold runs and I help people for free, I know others outside my group who do the same. I doubt people who would be unwilling to help others because of sale runs would help people for free if they couldnt sell them.

Alot of the people who buy runs do it for the guaranteed loot not the clear. People often buy multiple runs.

If you want to find skilled players to help you, join a decent FC or LS. If you dislike sale runs, why not start your own group to help new players through content for free?
