    So does Russia have a diff server or on the same US server? The Russian store is still complete vs what the American shop has shifted to COTOs.

    I'm not certain exactly what you are referring to here....
    What do you mean by
    , and where are you getting a redirect from?

    So why shouldn't I use a VPN to buy stuff in the Russian store to resell since RMT is encouraged? That is one of my major complaints about Port endorsing RMT.

    Go for it.

    Portalarium has explained their stance on RMT and why they don't fight it many times...
    • Buying/Selling items/gold/cotos/whatever is going to happen regardless of whether Portalarium bans it or not... To ban it they would need to expend resources they don't have to fight a battle they can't win... so, why try?
    • The Add-On Store sells nothing that is Required for gameplay and/or that isn't available in-game for in-game gold.
    • Postmortems and purchasing items from the Add-On Store to qualify for the stretch goals, is Purely Voluntary, and confers no in-game advantage (see above). Fundraising was necessary to continue to develop the game... and if they continue the post mortems and the purely voluntary contributions to obtain stretch goals as a supplemental income stream, what's wrong with that? A lot of people enjoy it... If you don't, there is no requirement to participate.
