[irrehoobe]

It's not the responsibility of the game administrators to bail out those who lose out by buying, or being unable to sell, 'illegal' or black market goods.

If people were ploughing real money in through the game mechanics (subscription based contributions f.e) then there would have been a duty of care probably.

If people haven't lost money (only enjoyment) then it's a choice the game admins make, whether to intervene to keep the gamers playing, or let nature take its course.
