1 million active players, but how many of them are bots and alts?

And that's literally where you lost me

Shell FC's are not botters, bots dont purchase houses.

Also if housing is "an extremely limited resource" it's because of SE. It also isnt that much of an extremely limited resource considering there's thousands upon thousands of plots on new worlds.

Perhaps not all shell FCs are botters, but how many of the owners of these shell FCs engage in RMT...?

Not any more than other players, how does having houses equals to RMT ? You know people use submarines to furnish their own houses right ? They dont need RMT

While there is a large number of Airship/submersible bot farms, the majority of the FC's are just hoarders.

So be it, if they worked for it, they deserve it /shrug

This is one of the 300+ FC houses owned by a single person on Materia.
Nobody is paying for the subscriptions with legitimate money.




On average 4 submersibles makes ~1-2m every 3 days, multiply that by 300 Houses and you now have somebody making 600m/week.

Once again, you are showing a multiowner, which is always or almost always done on a low level character, this proves nothing about RMT lol

Also that person doesnt have all 300 fcs so this doesnt mean much

I wonder how many multiowners don't change all the tags to being the same FC tag. If I was a multiowner, I'd probably try to hide that by making everything different.
