And to make it clear: To me, RMT means any way to spend more real money to gain in-game advantages over and above the base subscription and official expansions.
Does spending money on a better computer system provide an in-game advantage? What about dropping a few bucks to get a microphone so you can use voice-chat?
Does the term "false equation" mean anything to you?
It should, because that's precisely what you're doing here. You're equating an out-of-game purchase made with out-of-game money, to an in-game purchase made with out-of-game money. The two are NOT the same, & it pains me a great deal to see someone as intelligent & articulate as you making that mistake.
I of course assume it's a mistake, & not a rhetorical trick. I'd be disappointed to see you resorting to rhetorical tricks.
