My guess is that unlike the majority of Yew macroers, the green d-hide collectors were people actually working for raising GP to sell in RL (and China seems to be the likely location for the majority of these sweatshopesque type of operations). As thethinginthecorner said, since ebay and others (and yes, it was the major source for selling as it was a "trusted" place and just because ads appear that only means that said site placed a time/amount limit to their ads and that supply of ads doesn't necessarily reflect the true level of demand) have cracked down on the selling of rs gp (or, as was often the case, a joke was sold along with the gp for the $), along with other mmorpg currencies, for $, the companies that were gp harvesting farms have either: a) closed for good; B) taken a break in order to figure out new ways in order to sell rs gp for $; c) moved on to a different place of which we have yet to find. Unfortunately, my guess is "b". I doubt there was a mass banning as the majority weren't "macroing" (since they were humans playing), but they could have been banned, but it would have been more for real world item trading...a much more difficult one to prove. PS Apologies in advance for the parantheticals (I'm in that sort of mood today)
