The people that sell it. How's this even a question?
because what happens is that

kr farmers sell to a "safe" flipper who buy for say 5 dollars and flip it for 8

these flippers. are the main issue because these people essentially just act as the middle man between the supplier and the buyer.

If you didnt have these intermediaries kr farming wouldnt be worth it and its current scale

Krono farming exists because people buy krono. Just like powerleveling exists because people buy it. If there wasn't a market for it, you'd only see a minimal amount of the activity typically associated with these things. The only really degenerate aspects are monopolies, like if someone locks down an epic mob and forces payment to get past. The dudes plowing sg for cash or aeing the back of a velks pick for xp aren't really toxic unless you get stuck on the concept of it. Easy to avoid.

A lot of the hacking is quite the opposite. Many many many people who run software would gladly put it down if they thought everyone else had to also. Most guilds relying on afk automation to do open world - pretty much a requirement - would likely be happy to not have this escalation.

So for me its pretty easy. For kr and plvl I blame the buyers more. For hacking and botting etc I blame the program creators the most. I blame the hackers a LOT more for eq problems too.

If you're talking about flippers, then yeah they're both shitty. If you're talking people buying a kr for a piece of gear here or there, then they're retarded and lazy but not nearly as toxic as people turning this into a really sad career
