Idk char... apparently I can't call people fat in a facetious manner anymore...

I would love to see GGG ban actualy RMT'ers and not people who go from 1 currency to another and back to the original currency... but that will never happen lol

You RMTed.

You bought currency for Fools Gold-->RMT(Virtual currency)
You sold currency for Fools Gold--->RMT

You gained an unfair advantage, because you can outbid other traders.
Example you got 1 chaos orb at the beginning of a league and somebody sells an Item you want.
You can't afford it. You buy chaos orbs for fools gold.
You trade the item.
You most likely outbid a player who didn't use your method.

It doesn't matter if you sell 10 Chaos Orbs back in future.

While I believe you wouldn't be banned if you had certain support level tags,(I can't explain why A, B or T aren't banned yet. They are such powertraders there, they selfown themselves numerous times and most likely get reported on a daily basis when they play yet no ban)
you still broke the rules.


And I think everybody having CB access remembers a time where the RMT Board was totally unimportant.
There were some attempted trades there were 2 groups those detesting RMT and those who bought their CB keys with fools gold and tried to obtain it.

To decrease droprates, change the chance how itemmods spawn, the vendor receipe nerfs created the problem.

If somebody does merv runs for 1 hour in normal and acuires 6 chaos orbs, this creates a way for everybody to acquire orbs and destroys the RMT value of given currency.
RMT would have got zero success.

I remember seeing the thread where you got banned, but I didn't really see any more evidence than in any other case. Was there other stuff happening behind the scenes? There are a lot of people just as obvious from what I saw.

He was rather a small fish who ran a maprunning service for fools gold so possible something was caught on his stream.
His past broadcasts are still up along his live ban.

Damn I wish A or B would receive a live ban on new leagues......


But well they guy you wanted to know who he is here does the same but he doesn't stream.

And there are people who are far more obvious. They are literally begging for a ban.
How likely is it they buy certain rare/unique there and try to sell it here for gain?


Or obvious Tradeswappers in every league.

No, it diminishes the value of the given currency. Not RMT value; just plain, straight-up, no-qualification value. Since this affects all economies for that orb, RMT isn't significantly affected; when you hit the legit and illicit economies equally hard, the illicit one adjusts by assigning less dollars per object, and remains as strong as ever (no comparative advantage has been lost). Oh, and in this case, you also end up with stupid Mirror-worthy perfect items saturating the economy even faster than before.

In order to have an impact on RMT, you must enforce economic nerfs which do not impact the legit audience in any way whatsoever (economic buffs which impact the legit audience exclusively are impossible). This means: going after RMT buyers and sellers, and making it more difficult to use bots.

Did you play CB Scrotie? RMT was barely existant. The prices for same stat items were 5 times lower.

If currency is common the price each piece drops. For example Orb A is 1$ a piece it becomes really common and suddenly it's 1ct a piece.

If uniques are more common or linking gets easier there won't be any 1000$ for 6 linked x anymore.

Now who do you believe are the buyers of RMT products.

Mainly casuals, who don't have got the time to grind several 1000 hours to obtain something.

If they can obtain something easily they won't buy anything= Destroying RMT.


Or I could ask differently. Do you think the addition of the rare Eternal Orb was good for the game?
I think it was a terrible decision.

Sure that would help.


But it seems my fears are confirmed. If you believe that there is a selective RMT banning and you post it, it will be removed as nonconstructive hateful post. Despite the fact that highest banned supporter is a divine supporter and there are even Diamond Supporters with obvious RMT use.

Pardon the offtopic and the unsolicited attention, but I've wanted to say this for some time now: Scrotie, your posts are always a joyful journey through style and logic :D

Well no shit. The playerbase was what, 1% of what it is now? Of course the market would be smaller.

What do you think someone who RMTs for Chaos or Exalts does with them? Gamblecrafting? Making Chaos several times more common isn't going to make getting a Kaom's or a Shav's any easier to trade for; the price would skyrocket.

Like I said earlier, the only thing you're doing is destroying value, in both legit and illicit economies. If you utterly destroy the economy with inflation, on all possible fronts, then yes, RMT will be wiped out, because everything will indeed be easy to acquire. However, your victory will be pyrrhic, because you will have also destroyed the playerbase; there will also be no legit players left, or at best a small population of diehards (and thus RMT would be at or near CB levels). Thus, I'm not saying what you're asking for is impossible; it most certainly is possible. It is, however, stupid.

Read what I wronte everything should be more common.

Read D2 Patch notes for example 1.13 made high runes actually acuireable and after 1.13 most Itemshops dropped Diablo2.

there is nemesis/hardcore mirror for sale on a well known RMT site right now

hopefully ggg are closely monitoring the situation
