The problem with people sticking to rps is that very few are comfortable with the long term stability of rohan. They are more interested in getting the money they sunk into this game rather than risk it going away when the servers finally shut down. It's a rats "leaving the sinking ship" thing. They don't trust PWI in keeping the game around or they are simply and want to re-coup some of the money they spent on the way out. It is against ToS, but it happens and will keep on happening. You can't buy a coffee at McDonalds using RPs.
