so, RMT aren't "REAL" players? ok, but then that would include gilBUYERS too. which would make, by the opinions of many of the people here, a sh*tload of quetzal's population "justified" targets for MPK, thievery, and any other crap you can do to another character. ---

i'm sure robin hood needed to spend alittle of that money for basic necessities. this guy didn't steal and keep a basic item...it was a multi-mil gil item to be elite. now, don't get me wrong. i'm not defending gilsellers. they are a plague and shouldn't be in the game. however, you're...

lol...you saw that too? it really is a chuckle. ---

here's my point: some guy, thru deceptive means, obtained a 40mil item thru actions that hardly warrant such rewards. he then goes onto goodtimes and a good many of the board population haralds his action like it was some great benefit to the community and a blow against RMT. some even...

i know what you're saying, but this isn't something like, "i read that 89.356% of the american population are fat, lazy, bastards" where a specific point of information is touted as fact. this is simply a statement about research that made a general claim...a claim involving an issue that was...

as i have stated, i didn't make it a point to commit to memory, the source of all the material that i have seen and read over the past few years. i do remember the basic point of the pieces and their conclusions. if you don't believe me that the materials i've come across are from reputable...

no, that's why i asked, "where the boundaries are going to be drawn". sure, it's a gilseller now. but, who else will be "legitimized" targets by the community? ---

yeah, well i don't make it a habit to jot down references for all the material i've read and seen over the years. if you have a problem with it, dig it up yourself. it's there. the research has been done...the conclusions have been made...ever since the mess at columbine and the one in...

A* or maybe you just watch too little news B* much of the studies done over the past 5-7 years are from reputable universities, educators, and research groups. i'm thinking they have some clue in making their assessments. but really, how is research truly going to reach the level of being...

much documentation and research has been done over the issue of the desensitivity to violence from things such as movies, vid games, and activites such as hunting. being expose to certain things can lead to other actions like murder. only thing stopping alot of people with an issue to grind...

this story reminds me of the time some jpn got screwed out of a scorpion harness right around christmas. SH was selling for abouts 9-10mil (about 2 weeks before the all time highs of 14-19mil SHs) on the AH and some jpn was wanting to cash in. he does a shout for 11mil iirc, and this guy name...

i want to thank your LS for helping me with my item. you guys did something that i find very rare nowadays...random kindness. be sure that i will look back on this night and continue to extend my help to others, as i have always tried to do. kindness begets kindness and i will keep that in...

yeah, paddie definately meant the reraise3 scroll. and it wasn't a skill up party. it was our static xp party in gustav tunnel at level 60ish...a goblin alchemist. we thought we hit the jackpot for our little whm, dukkie, and we were more than pleased to let her have it no matter what it was...

eh, i'm not saying, "no purchases have been legitimate christmas splurges." i'm just saying it's not the main reason prices are where they currently stand. gil companies are making millions and millions of dollars...there must be people buying that crap with rl benjamins. you don't think they...

easy. this surge is being experienced server wide. i would put more weight into your theory if it was the instance of a couple of servers seeing high ticket items jumping by millions with each AH history, but that's just not the case. your argument about the people with too much gil on...
