You’ve spent almost full time work hours actively discouraging people to purchase premium items/time in this game which is against TOS. What is your actual objective here.
so according to you everything is pretty much fine right?
I hate it when people make up what they think other people are supposed to be thinking - it’s bad manners, and a crap way to discuss or argue!
no I am looking how many guys are ok with this situation!
No - you are putting words into his mouth and making a strawman argument - there are ways to be “not OK” that do not require actively discouraging people from supporting the game financially and breaking the rules
How about all of you focus on discussing the topic and take personal observations to a private chat or different forum topic, if its so important for you to do it publicly.
Did you just copy moderator’s automated massage
Being honest about the state of the game and discouraging the abuse of objectively stronger items is not against ToS. Actively discouraging players from playing the game entirely would be against the ToS, but there is nothing in there keeping me from leaving what are essentially just bad reviews.
And if those reviews are keeping players from abusing the OP stuff, my work was not in vain as it will improve the experience of the average player by a large margin.

Mate, you’ve spent almost full-time working hours actively defending these practices. I think it says more about you defending extreme monetization than it does about TCat trying to prevent people from falling for it.

People warning against this monetization are trying to make clear, that this is not the way to go. Also, “incitement to not paying” is gaijin´s WT mods fantasy land, incitement to not playing would be breaking rules.
People defending this monetization are usually just those who selfishly want to continue abusing it on expense of everybody else. However, this will only kill the game by making it hostile to everyone who is not willing to cough up few hundreds of bucks to gambling machine with uncle snail.
Of course there are exceptions such as worrying about wasted money etc. but those are most likely minority (at least I never saw one around before).

Where did I say lootboxes? And what is lootboxes to you ? I think you are probably against randomness of loot in lootboxes, which I never said anything about.
I’m not familiar with CS market but I’m thinking more in how WoW or other MMORPGs have ingame market and economies.
If for example you killed infantry with SMG, you would loot more smg or smgs parts. Some of these smg were worn out or broken so you have to take parts from them to rebuild a pristine one etc… I think this would make more of a better progression mechanic open to all and motivating continuous play.
You want to sell items for currency on a player market.
These items are currently obtained by random chance, through “weapon orders”. Legally, these weapon orders are lootboxes.
The devs have already stated what their rework for the progression will be more or less, so there is a near 0% chance of anything else happening to it.
Ingame currency like any mmo or rpg not currency only access by spending real life money, have you played any mmo with an economy?.. you trade something you dont need or have less value for something that you need.
I might not have use for a sniper rifle so I put it for sale another player could then buy it and use the resulting currency to purchase something I need.
Im confused 
You complain about lootboxes but now you are for lootboxes? And say there is nothing that cant be done… I think you should too much posts and don’t think enough before replying.
It does not require to only be accessible through real money for this to be an issue. The capability to use real money, exclusively or not, to buy items rewarded through chance, is an issue, as it gives the item a real world value.
I am against your suggested mechanic because the lootboxes exist. And if the lootboxes did not exist, they would be no need to have this mechanic because you could just directly buy a gun anyways. Me being for or against lootboxes has nothing to do with this flaw of your suggestion.
On the contrary. I thought this through more than you did and found issues with your suggestion that you did not think off.
