14 days ban for gold buying, Living Flames still locked

Lot of people got banned for 14 days yesterday.

Would be nice to unlock Living Flames for all of theses because at this point they can’t even play the game if they buy new account …

I don’t think this was intended by Blizzard.

Golds buying should be a ban, we are all okai with that especially in SoD.

Problem is not all people are treated equally (biggest streamer never hit while they assume buying golds in Classic Era/Hardcore GDKP/WOTLK GDKP).

Another great post by the geniuses of WoW.

The other day it was about how they couldnt exploit reputation after deleting items, today its about how they cant play on new acounts after their gold buying ban :clown_face:

Think itd beed to be a perma ban for this lol, they all csn log on again in 14 days, so unlocking on the premise they cant log in only causes the problem 14 days later.

So I bought a can of milk 2 days ago and it’s already spoiled.

Should be a perma ban for sure. Even if streamers are allegedly not punished equally (I don’t know if that’s true), I am still content knowing that gold buyers are seriously inconvenienced. Preferably to the point where it’s no longer worth it for them to continue playing. Ever.

Best solution is for all you nuggets to stop buying gold.

Its just frustrating to see the game devolve into this. Its drastically inflates everything so that legit players suddenly get priced out of everything, even simple items on the AH.

2 weeks? Hope they also took all their gold and items the characters got from the last raid they participated in.

Gold buying should be a perma ban.
That IS the cure for bots, not bot banning. Bots will always come back if there are customers. You cant get rid of them by banning them.

Nah the gold buyers would just make new accounts then and try again.
Best temp ban them - waiting that out is like the carrot on the stick that keeps them from doing that.

At least something. I imagine its like yellow card, next should be red card.

So you want to be able to buy gold once?

Do what I have done, swap SoD gold with other types of game.

Is that any different?

Well, you are not paying anyone real money and it’s not against the rules, so yeah, it’s different.

So you swap currency from SOD for other game currency?

I.e outwith wow?

I swapped SoD currency for my Wrath currency.

Swapping it with other games currency is against the rules. Though I do have a lot of Daybreak Tokens. I get 500 free a month.

If by other type of games you mean non-WoW games then you are actually trading with items outside WoW - which IS bannable.
But then you obviously knew that already …

Yeah, as I said I swapped my wrath gold for SoD gold, at not a good rate but I needed some gold to get some levelling stuff and skills.
