Pot... kettle. Ketlle... pot.
So is this bitterness over your buisness going south? Because you clearly don't have a problem with buying/selling plat, it only seems that you lost your corner in the market. Listen there will always be people who cheat, and find ways to. Either let it affect you or not. I don't dupe, macro (any time spent learning the "language" would be better spent experiencing), or buy plat. Some people do... who cares? Is it gonna make me get a group more or less often? Are my AAs going to come any slower solo? BFD... some stupid kid who is good at it makes some cash, good for him... better than designing a virus for my puter to catch and not be able to boot EQ. And I would also like to comment that it is in very poor taste to claim that the dupers/macro'ers are taking away from dental plans of children of people whom you employ to break the EULA. Gimme an F'ing break.
My point is this: people cheat, can't stop that. SOE has they're interests in letting it go, or stopping it. Bazaar prices are inflated, the economy is crashing, and so is the sky. I just play to have fun with friends and guildmates, and I'm sure thats the case with most.
