I read through this thread and certainly less qualified than most of the people posting regarding the legalities.

However, I'm unsure what parallel universe some of the people posting live in wherein in-game isk is not convertible to real-world money?

I understand it's not sanctioned by CCP, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen. It's fairly common and easy. I have no doubt that folks that are very active within the game-isk gambling community are also active in the RMT community. Pure speculation, I admit. But it's happened before and I'm sure it's happening now.

It's just a bit difficult to wrap my head around some of the very well thought-out arguments in this thread when they also contain phrases regarding the isk-cash trade as a one-way transaction. That's demonstrably false and any argument based on that seems faulty at it's base.

TBH I think that's more a case of staying within the forum rules than a denial that it happens.
Pretty much this. Noizy has a pretty good article over on Nosy Gamer and he knows a good deal about these things.
