Making Pure Mesos in MapleStory

I suppose there's room for them to maliciously buy something from someone to get them banned... but for the most part, meso selling is a business, and they're not going to give away mesos just to screw with people.

There's also the problem of people botting to fund their closet hacking mains. These people would go through multiple steps to avoid their mains getting banned, probably even trading through multiple players, or buying resellable items from shops (maybe even getting them banned in the process)

I really don't think there's a way to reliably stop this effect than to take an active role in updating security against these third party programs. Ideally, they'd need a solution that doesn't hurt legitimate players, while having an effect on hackers and script kiddies paying for VIP tools...the problem is, I don't think there's another effective solution.
