Purchasing leafs from hackers

Hello,

It's more of a moral question than a "would I get banned" question. In the free market, there's a bunch of leaves sold in batches, but they're obviously from hackers/botters (the name gives it away easily).
Do you think it's okay to purchase the leafs? And would it be safe?

Abraham Lincoln once said it goes against the government to buy from botters.

True, but buying them makes the game worse.

I try not to buy absolutely anything hacker-related because

1. I can make it myself.
2. I don't want anything made by scum.
3. If I bought it, it'd contribute to ruining the game further. (As if it's wasn't already ruined enough).

Speaking of leaves though. It's ridiculously easy to farm them anyway. Buy from hackers and you're helping the inevitable death of the entire game. But oh well, there's no real consequence, so the limits of selfishness are boundless.

If you are talking about against the TOS type of thing? Then ya you can be banned for it. Now are you talking about will you be banned for it? Then no most probably not unless you are extremely unlucky to have a GM be watching you that second or something like that. As the first poster stated botted items are a part of the economy now and 99% of the time no one cares not even the GMs themselves if you buy something duped or botted. It's like when you litter on the ground or jaywalk. It is against the law and you can get ticketed for it. Thing is you most probably will get away with it and no one really cares if you break those little laws.

nothing will happen, botted items are a huge part of the economy, all you can do is sit back and let the botters fight and lower prices
