I was talking to Nuki today,one of the people that works on the name is actually pretty cool.I tried to get on the good side of Nuki,and started asking him/her about gilselling.He/she then explained that every 12.5 hours,people take turns using the characters.I asked if Nuki thought gilselling was bad,he/she said yes,but its her job,and its how she makes a living.My LS was telling me to request a GM (Who doesnt hate Nuki?).But I figured I would ask for help with Stroper Chyme,just for the hell of it.Suprisingly,they formed an alliance with me (Cause their party was already full),and said I would get 100k for every ring I helped them get.Unfortunatly,I only got one ring,but,still.I got most of the party to admit to gilselling,except for the ones that couldn't speak English at all.I could have easily told a GM about them,but I figure if they helped me,I would just leave them alone..Then when I disband and get ready to go to Sandy,the BRD they had (dont know the name) ran a train of gobs,bats,beetles,and a few Stropers (not Stroper Chyme)to the zone of La Theine.I didn't die,but I kind of got the idea.So,yeah,I reported them,except for Nuki,for MPK and gilselling.Damn sure the GM didn't do anything though.

I feel sad to know that some people in other countries get paid so little compared to North Americans.
For example, an engineer with a Masters degree in EE, who works in one of the larger semiconductor fab plant, told me he gets paid the equivalent of $600 USD a month. Thats below the proverty line here in the U.S.
When you put all your hate and self-righteousness aside, and think about what these people have to do to earn a living... you sometimes feel sorry for them. I know I do.

Well, regardless of their financial status and choice of career's, Their days are numbered. Every week more and more of them disappear from our virtual landscape, and to them I say good riddance.
I look forward to a day when this board is free of gil-seller threads,
and I can actually check AH price histories and not see the same name listed
over and over on an item I want/need.

If gil sellers leave that place there would be a new party there that would camp it 24/7.

The fact that there are places in this world that can allow such a meaningliss exstence to be a way of life is in it of itself pitiful. I pity them yes, but that does not mean I will not stop despising what they do and how I am paying money to get frustrated.
