Oddly enough, while I'm not a huge Smed fan,
this entry in the Station Blog over at SoE is very interesting.
RMT *is* here and it will stay here, because there are plenty who don't perceive it as "wrong" -- and indeed there are many uses for it that even I, a pretty strong opponent of in-game gold selling, find perfectly acceptable.
In any case I'm glad Sigil are backing their words with actions. Long may it continue.
