Seriously dude just stop trolling already, basically you started a thread posting only the positives and then you spend the next 40 pages just dismissing the negatives.

You seem to think that demolishing your arguments somehow equates to "trolling". Hint for you. It doesn't.

Basically your points are:

Oversimplifying and extremizing someone's points because you can't counter his original ones is called "strawman argument". Google it. Second hint: It doesn't help your side.

Lying and ignoring facts doesn't make certain ideas good ones, I know it's an election year so there's a lot of it going around but really enough is enough.

Refuting your points (which aren't "facts" by any stretch of the imagination) doesn't equate to ignoring them, and even less to "lying".

Just to add this example:
Players selling a 1 months sub for 2mil gil.
RMT selling 2mil gil for 7.99.
One thing that wont change is that the sub fee wont ever change so RMT will always have the advantage of getting people to buy gil instead of this item.

Sorry but that's not how it works.

First of all, price is decided by the players according to offer and demand. This means that if RMT sells 2 million gil for 7.99, players will simply sell the item for four million, or whatever price is necessary for them to beat the RMT price. They're not forced to set any price, and they're able to actively compete against RMT adjusting prices accordingly.

The more players compete against RMT, the more RMT is forced to lower its prices, even because it can't offer the same degree of security (and if someone cares enough about his character to spend money on it, it's pretty safe to assume that he'd be willing to eat a few dollars loss in order to be sure he doesn't risk a ban). The more RMT lowers its prices, the less profitable their business becomes, until it simply becomes unprofitable, or they don't have enough budget to support enough workforce to negatively influence the economy.

You're seeing the market as something fixed. It isn't.
