I would not even be surprised if he is supplying them with intel to avoid being caught.<br /><br />Certain well-known Goons have been raking in RL money from RMT for several years now. It isn't exactly a big secret. These guys don't even play Eve anymore - they are just meta-gaming it to hell, in order to farm as much RL money before CCP eventually goes under.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-48551944630430896742012-11-05T08:37:41.122-06:002012-11-05T08:37:41.122-06:00Right now you'd have to be a complete idiot to...Right now you'd have to be a complete idiot to buy 1b isk for $22.50 and have quite a high risk of sanctions at some future date instead of just buying 2 plex (worth about 1.2b) for $34.99.<br /><br />The amount of money you save is trivial and even if you don't get caught you'd be anxious every time RMT is mentioned. Just not worth it.<br /><br />I suspect the only reason any illicit isk is selling is simply habit, that some people have always bought off the black market and haven't checked the value recently (nor read this blog).Stabshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08716211705647213383noreply@blogger.com
