It saddens me to know that you believe your opinion is the only correct one in the world, while at the same time criticizing me for giving my opinion.

All hail Snark, the only person entitled to an opinion, since everyone else is wrong when he thinks differently.

Why enhance Allakhazam to accomplish this? No wonder it's such a pain in the ass to really make a unified statement about RMT, when we have so many weak fucks just giving in left and right and gumming up the works with backbone-less bullshit. Wouldn't it be at least entertaining for once to just stand up for something?

HA HA Fuck you, Roger. And don't vote for Obama.

It really is one thinking calling you narrow minded, and quite another actually having to deal with it. What an ordeal.

Look, there have been other opinions besides mine in this thread. Not just from you. Your opinions are frighteningly perverse, over dramatic, and generalized. How quickly and reprehensibly you can just call someone a prostitute to prove a point.

I never criticized you for giving an opinion. I criticized the very plexus of your arguments - an extremely interesting, perverse, and morally confusing area.

Snark, it seems to me like the net difference between us is that you don't find the illicit RMT industry as offensive to MMOs as I do.

Why don't we just agree on that point, I can respect that as a difference of opinion.

Look, I have opinions about RMT - don't think I don't. They frustrate me to no end, in game, out of game, everywhere. But I am not so quick to connect the dots and share this opinion with the tens of thousands of people who operate under its umbrella. In the same way I do not judge the people that work for a corporation housing corrupt CEOs, or even the people that operate under laws that I don't agree with. All I am saying is, bring the information to the table. Let people draw their own conclusions. Which would be quite opposite of what is happening here - flat out telling people they are prostitutes working for a corrupt mafia organization that will be raided by the government any day now.


Right.

Here's the facts, RMT will be in a game no matter what. There are people who don't want to have to play the game to advance it. It doesn't matter at all about your crusade, it's pointless. If you want to remove RMT you need to remove the need for it in games. Which is impossible for MMOs as the entire point of an MMO is to spend time in-game to earn things, which a RMT does it for you with real life money. Your entire crusader is dumb as hell, because you can't beat the people who are just trying to make money off the game's problem. You should go look at WoW, you know how many top guilds buy gold? A lot of them. Why do they buy gold? Because it's cheaper on them to buy gold rather than farm the gold for themselves.

The entire fad of being super anti-companys who sell stuff is dumb. You want to beat the problem, you go after the developers who give a reason for it to exist in the first place. Yes, the problem isn't the buyers, or the sellers. The problem is the developers who give players a reason to do it. Whether it's that epic mount for 5000 gold, or all those items for sale on the broker that somebody wants to buy.

That makes me a sad panda :/


Anyways, we all have bought a pair of nikes, shoes/socks/shirt. We all in some help someone we do not mean to. I buy cigars all of the time, prolly helping some drug dealer, but out of sight out of mind.

LFG

She backed me into a corner and forced me to say it. I was left with no choice but to fully explain myself, so I did.

I bought my shoes directly from Osama Bin Laden. He was all like "Derka derka!" and I was all like "O RLY!" and he was all like "Muhammed jihad!" and I was like "OIC."

This is the flaw in your hypothesis, dear. I do not accept money from the RMT industry. But unless the Zam Network decides to publish tax returns, I have no way to prove this to you.

How about since I can't prove I'm not and by your own admission you can't prove I am, you back off and stop calling me names? Awful hard to see you say you still like me in one post and call me a prostitute in the next.

You're aware, I'm sure, that I heard the same "if you sleep with the dogs" argument about working here. They were wrong, too.
