Especially since the research I have done on the story (and I looked into this a long time before you posted your link) tells me MarkeeDragon got out of the RMT business over 2 1/2 years ago?<br /><br />FYI - I looked into this story when I found MarkeeDragon.com selling GTCs and I thought "why was CCP doing business with an RMT'er? Then I found it was a non-story since he was now legit, no matter the reason.<br />NoizyGamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17315716516032999133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-9389776914305770852012-11-29T06:45:48.375-06:002012-11-29T06:45:48.375-06:00If you can't notice the obvious question of wh...If you can't notice the obvious question of why CCP was cooperating with an RMT outlet then I can't help you.<br /><br />By the way "going legit" is a very nice way of putting what actually happened. Blizzard simply put his sorry ass out of businesses by going after his paypal accounts (butthurt in his videos about that is rather amusing).

And how he had to divest himself from his interest in Shattered Crystal because it was trying to be a straight site and once game companies found out he was associated with the site they refused to do business with it? And how in Feb/March 2010 he went straight? And how MarkeeDragon.com went from a hotbed of RMT activity on its forums to the forums being transferred to MMOBay.net? And how MarkeeDragon.com is actually now an approved seller of Eve Online GTCs?<br /><br />Or are you talking about the scams done by a lot of these gold selling sites in which they demand copies of official documents, quite frequently passports? <br /><br />Am I missing something? A link to a 2007 forum thread, which was 2 years before I started playing Eve, is a little vague.NoizyGamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17315716516032999133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-82329518357705191892012-11-28T15:51:54.202-06:002012-11-28T15:51:54.202-06:00You seem to like posting about RMT but you lack th...You seem to like posting about RMT but you lack the research skills to notice stuff right in your face.<br /><br />Here is a little something to send you in the right direction:<br />http://community.eveonline.com/iNgameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=629967&page=2#58<br /><br /><br />Do you feel like tackling 100 pound gorilla?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
