I have to agree completely. I don't know what the editor was thinking when he suggested this, but GIVING UP is not the answer to all our problems. These people (the autoers) don't understand how they are hurting our games (and it's a serious problem in ALL online games, not just Runescape) and letting them win is not the answer. We need to show them that they are not welcome here, and why. Furthermore, if we allow people to legally purchase gold through the game, that opens a floodgate of legal issues. Assigning gold a dollar value effectively makes everything in the game worth real money. If you get PKed, can you sue the guy who PKed you and get your stuff back? What if you get banned, can you sue Jagex? What about taxes? It's a slippery slope to tread on, for sure, and not somewhere I would like to see ANY game progress any time soon. As long as Jagex continues to insist that the gold is virtual and belongs to them, then we are safe from the ravages of the Real World.
