Why does this game still cater to exploiters and cheaters?

Except irl you don't get money falling from the sky like in-game. The rl argument is absolutely ridiculous, in-game everything are infinite and people can always get them one way or another.

Yep you didn't think about it.

Regular players can't make progress turning in items to hamlets to get spots in top 20, or sell items at decent prices and run a regular economy if other players are using bots and other means that make it impossible to even compete. An MMO economy spirals out of control.

"RMT doesn't hurt anyone!"

Cheating in any way ruins the community no matter how you spin it. I also believe the only people who defend it are the people who are taking advantage of a system that doesn't punish players for cheating.
