And that's fine, but they should keep it on the exchange servers, then. Not everyone wants to play by those standards and forcing everyone to play like that is fucking retarded.

It seems to me SoE is basing thier MMo market on the asain market which is heavily involved in RMT. It is not just about more money either (which i am sure is a huge underlying factor) but the popularity of that model surpasses anything in the North american market. People who have more money will have an easier time in MMo's and in real life. Thats just the way the world works.

There are a million threads about this so I will just post here.

WHO GIVES A FLYING FUCK?

If everyone spent more time worrying about what went on within their own circle, own guild, and own lives the world would be a better place.

Sony is out to make bank, mucho denero, cha ching; the green stuff.

Stop whining about it take the blows and punches and roll with them. If they wanna make it so people with money can play better and achieve more then let them.

You whine so much about that but making contested that spawn once in a blue moon that are heavily camped and permakilled by one guild per server who logs on at whee hours of the morning using call list. How is it any different?

You invest your real lives and have nothing outside of eq2 per being in guilds as stated above but when they release something like LoN (not a fan either btw) but you all go apeshit.

Let them do their thing because the "elite few" (who IMHO compared to EQ1 and other games are far from elite) are of little importance to sony because you are .1% of their subscription base.

The sooner all you people with huge egos and asshat attitudes quit the better and if this causes that to occur then I welcome the change.

There are people richer than me who got their money through no effort of their own, but so what? Should I feel my car or clothes are cheapened because Paris Hilton can buy better with money she didn't earn?

I think the point missed here is that folks DON'T want their game to mimic real life. But hey Cas, keep trying to baffle 'em with bullshit... you might have a future in politics or defense law.
