so could be money, could be RMT. wish they would talk to us again about this since it's been over two years, and obviously this restriction hasn't hindered RMT significantly
Well they obviously aren't going to say its for selling retainers....That would be business suicide to admit you want to make extra money by purposely restricting stuff. As far as combating RMT, look at WoW. How often do you get blasted in that game by RMT? Next to 0....just saying.
