I sincerely don't believe that. If hordes of RMT BLMs can queue for dungeon parties and use position glitches to get through, literally all a person owning those bots has to do is get at least one of them through Steps. When it comes to real money profit gold farmers always find a way.

Anyway, not the point. The fact they can't feasibly doesn't matter, you can get a tell and a friend request from a player no matter where in the game world they are. The gating of the expansion literally did zero to lessen RMT. Only thing it limits is RMT /say and /shout advertising. Tells and friend requests are still as rampant as ever on lower population servers.
