I thought about it... And if the only way to stop RMT is to be looking for them, why not ask players about their behaviors?
Think about it. What are the three things RMT rely on.
1: Resources for gold
2: Advertising
3: Transit
You could cut off a lot of RMT by destroying mail that contains the words gold and the $ symbol together.
Then you could autoban them by a strike system. Most players report these people in public, but lets just say they never leave shout and keep combining the same things. Instant ban on sales in game.
You can't change how people loot, because then the game breaks.
I'm not here to propose new laws in place or figure out a solution. I want to hear how you would solve it, in a way that hasn't been discussed yet. As for my statement, I merely want to know what players would think if this were used. Sure, you'd leave a warning in game saying be careful of using those combinations in game, so as not to get banned, but a bot from Korea isn't going to pick up on that.
Do you believe there is more we can be doing as players to discourage things that end up ruining games?
