    For the life of me, I can't understand how thing kind of thing is legal. RMT is against pretty much every single MMO's terms of service, and is a universally bannable offense. It's the digital equivalent of buying drugs. How have these people not been sued by a player who had bought something from them ignorant of the consequences? I mean, sure, lots of us don't have the time or the money to do so, but there has to be a millionaire or two who likes to peruse FF14 in their spare time, and is petty as heck. Where are those guys? I've LOVE to see pvpbank get slapped with a cease and desist.

    You may as well ask how we still have people on the streets dealing drugs, despite the laws we have that make that sort of thing illegal.

    Except for the fact that drug sales ARE illegal, yet RMT is not for whatever reason. These salesmen are brazen, have no respect for the business rules set by MMOs, or for the countless people who have been banned for using them in their wake. They go out of their way to be annoying, and I cannot understand why they have not been sued out of existence yet.

    I mean, this latest evolution of their tactics after we were SO CLOSE to being rid of them forever just illustrates that the past methods of dealing with these parasites are not working. At least, not for any great length of time. Sorry to say, but it is true. They will never ever stop. Maybe it's time for something a bit more heavy handed?

    You sue, they'll just declare bankruptcy, and then start off in another place. These people will use every available legal loophole to their advantage.

    As I'm sure you are well aware, it takes more than one person to be able to kick a player from a duty, so in all those instances there were at least two people agreeing they'd be better off without you tanking.
