RMT stands for Real Money Trading. It's when you're selling your time in a game to level someone else's character for real money. Or you are selling accounts or ingame items for real money. At First all MMORPGs are against it and if you advertise the service for another company, you can get banned. If you shout it in general chat in-game or if you send emails, whether in-game or out of game, promoting the service...you will get banned.
But that is 5 years ago, it's still illegal in some way but MMORPG companies are slowly facing the reality that it cannot be helped, so they made a RMT feature ingame to make a profit to themselves later called "ITEM MALL".
What is Item Mall or Premium Shop?
Item Mall or Premium Shop is the answer of some MMORPG companies to battle user to user RMT. It is a shop that you can purchase ingame items in exchange of real money. But unlike user to user RMT or RMT companies, Item mall's prices are a bit pricey and has limited items only, so RMT is still standing and going strong at present.
RMT at present:
MMORPG Companies start to face reality that RMT cannot be eradicated as long as there are buyers who are willing to pay and buy virtual items from RMT companies, so some MMORPG unformally legalize it finally.
RMT at present is much rampant and stronger than ever, many companies invests in RMT business and some of it offers services like power levelling and even selling characters for the convenience of the players.
