What's crazy about all this history is a reminder of how "wild west" that era of MMOs was. PvP, ganking, selling stuff on Ebay and forums, not really knowing if the people in your party were decent human beings or addicted to playing or commercializing the entire experience. Maybe a little of A, B, and/or C. 12P always seemed sketchy to me, I'm sure some were along the ride to powergame and others had...different agendas, clearly. The idea that it's ever worth 24/7 gaming now for anything seems pretty laughable, or that your sum contribution to humanity was screwing people over online to sell another FBSS on Ebay.
Nothing about that article is the least bit surprising, and hopefully the people involved that were just there to powergame have moved on to something more rewarding.
