Boosting literally also can be seen as a problem when taking into consideration the Bluepost of the reason why GDKP got banned.
I mean seriously. Boosting (as a service) does erode the social structures that are part of the spirit of the game as much as GDKP does.
Forming a group of people at your lvl, finding new friends due to that process or at least new mates you add to your friendlist that you want to continue playing with somewhat later (after the dungeon is cleared) etc…
But I also want to say: Boosting a friend (not as a service you offer for gold in a public chat channel but as a gift to another friend) is in my opinion no problem at all. It becomes a problem the moment it starts becoming a business.
And yes, there are also Boosters that run this service to sell the earned gold via RMT.
So for me there are 2 reasons why Boosting-as-a-service should be banned:
- eroding social structures that are part of the spirit of the game
- RMT (Gold selling/ buying)
Both points also affects players that are not offering or buying Boosting as a service in a negative way.
In this regards:
Is not an option, because also if you dont participate in it…youre affected by it.
