Why would gold farmers stop using their own websites to sell their wares? You get a keylogger and they get your money. Plus some other stuff from you PC, if your not careful.
I want to see how this real money AH works. Because it sounds like a great idea that will be ruined by RMT. Has Blizzard said how they will deal with abusers of the AH? Like when people drive prices down, spam trash items, break stacks into singles, control markets, bid on their own items to drive the prices up, dupe, bot, and so on.
In Final Fantasy online RMT controlled the AH on my server. Plus they hacked spawns to end-game quest items(rare mobs), so that people had to buy spawns from them. They were a major contributor to the downfall of the game. People were quitting left and right when GMs did nothing.
If this AH thing fails it could be really bad for the game. I already have my doubts about a 10 year old game with a new skin. If people can, they will.
A whole new generation is about to learn of the dark side of MMO's.
RMTs were not the cause of the downfall of the game. It was however an extremely bad era in the life of FF11. Once they released the rare drops in BCNM events that basically killed RMTs for the better. Things went for 10 million Gil to 300k Gil. FF11 was killed because of Abyssea. Not RMTs.
Also MF is MF. You didn't need it in D2. You probably won't need it in D3 either. Always found it to be placebo personally.
