    Probably a safe assumption that the people in here saying ignore it or that's its not hurting anyone.. is probably the people who have bought a title or something or possible the ones selling the runs.

    Wouldn't be too sure on that assumption.
    A lot of players just don't care (myself included).
    Why should it bother me what other players do to get their content clears?
    I don't really see why anyone having a specific title or mount or achievement affects anyone other than that person.
    For perspective, I'm a mostly casual player that maybe does an extreme trial now and then but doesn't care much for achievements / titles.
    I do collect mounts usually on the last expac's unsync trials, but wouldn't bother paying a party to get me through content I can't clear - doesn't mean I think ill of players that do that, though.

    I agree that cluttering the 'duty roulette' section of PF isn't okay, and PF recruitments should use the appropriate content tag. But beyond that, I don't see anything wrong with it as long as its ingame currency for ingame services. (if it involves RMT, that should be banned of course)

    I don't think you're wrong, though there's also what I call 'passive collaborators' to consider. Individuals who claim that cheating doesn't affect them, be it due to apathy or something else.

    On my end, I loathe paid clears because it means that there are less people creating legitimate groups and raid communities. I'd love to engage in high end raiding but I've had terrible luck finding other players to do it with consistently who match my schedule and goals.

    Less people actively trying to clear a raid also means the development team have less incentive to develop as much PvE content as they might do if there was more demand for it.
