This is a good point. Enabling 1:1 trade will likely not be the preferred way for RMTers to deliver silver. Buying overpriced item seems to the be the more advantageous route. I have to think over this a bit more.
I don’t, but I am saying that
The perspective from IMC is that they think, it should not have too much an impact to the player base as they think, every player should carry a token either through TP shop or AH.
Can you please elaborate?
Also constantly buying the Token from the AH would increase its demand and raise its price, essentially shooting themselves in the foot because they just enabled legit RMT to be more efficient than RMTing.
There’s a difference between defending, and laying out the rationale behind an action. I’m doing the latter not the former. I would love the game to be fully supported by cosmetics only and I would wholeheartedly buy a few cash shop items as I do with other games now, but that’s not the purpose of this discussion.
And we can’t make it any easier before understanding the rationale behind each party. Constantly crying that IMC games is irrational and is just doing these decisions without basis is absurd and unhelpful. We must first understand the rationale behind their action, then suggest a better solution to meet their goals, before desired outcomes can be achieved.
