Most of the time they DO NOT ban. This is not cool and most GGG fanboys don't want to admit it but this is the reality. Most RMT'ers get away with it even if people do report them.

Check this one out.

" Which is still doing more than any other game I've seen.. The fact that they do ban some and take some antimeasures against rmters is great. |

" So what? What you want GGG to do? Ban everyone who MIGHT have been RMTing? Ban people because of screenshots that might have been faked? What if you start in the new leagues in March, and Hillock drops a Mirror, and you get banned because people get pissed and forge a screenshot just to get you out of their way, would you still support bans without hard evidence? I know it's shitty and all, but you just can not ban people without rock hard evidence, and if there's the slighest doubt and you ban someone although he's innocent, your reputation would go downhill with lightspeed. "PoE is a cool game, but GGG is banning everyone who's trying to build some wealth", that's what they'd say. Quality and reputation mean everything in this world, therefore there's no good reason for GGG to not ban people who are clearly cheating, but they'd be massivly stupid to ban people without hard evidence. |

can't they just tap into trade logs and chit like wtf they probably ban 5% of the people who actually RMT and 95% get away with it

"No, because then anyone giving a valuable item to anyone for free would get banned. One must realize that, with the introduction of guilds, this practice is more prevalent than ever; in some guilds, the stash is read-only for general members, and officers approve withdrawals by taking them item out themselves and free-trading to the requestor. There's also the fact that some players are just really, really bad at trading. I'm sure GGG is aware this is the defense most RMTers would use — that my buddy found a Shav's and was giving it to me after 6Ling it, or I found some idiot who would trade me his Kaom's for just a handful of Alterations. Thus, this kind of behavior alone is not sufficient grounds to nail someone for RMT, by any reasonable standard. But by God, it should raise some red flags. Shit, with all the items I've given away for free, I should have at least been investigated by now. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.

This is all backwards anyway.
The solution is not to ban more people, because much bigger companies than GGG have lost that battle. The best they can do is piss at fires while the town burns down. Could they piss a little harder? I'm sure, but then the town burns down a little slower. The solution (or at least the beginning of one) is to provide less incentive for players to RMT. Instead of any developments in that direction, we see however MORE legacy items, challenges that almost require RMT, and a crafting system that makes it impossible to get upper tier stuff by just playing the game. How can anyone be surprised by the result? The root of the issue is the game's design. All that's needed is for GGG to encourage RMTing a little less than the game's design currently does. |
