If this is -actually- the problem (and I don't believe it is), then you'd need to stop all transfers of anything between players to stop it. There's no difference between me using OOC money to buy something in a game and me using OOC connections with friends to get stuff from them in-game. For instance, in Worlds of Warcraft, when I was a little noob, an rl friend of mine sent me 5 gold. (that's a HUGE amount to a noob. So much that the game didn't even offer a way for me to reasonably spend that much money at my low level). Why did I get that gold? OOC resources (my friends). Is there any difference between me trading on my OOC friendships vs. my OOC bank account? I'd say not. Both are OOC resources and the result is exactly the same as regards the game.
