Boosters have always been known to sell the gold for IRL money instead of buying it with tokens. I don’t really buy it that Gallywix Community was the number one boosting service in World of Warcraft and got caught selling gold for IRL money.
And you are going to tell me that the other boosting services are not going to do what they did? No instead they’re going to learn from the mistake and learn how to hide it better next time.
You are clearly delusional if you think the WoW token hasn’t ruined the community with all this spam in tradechat and breaking up the game.
Ofcourse you would defend such a poison within the game because Blizzard is now the middle man of gold selling.
Do you have an issue with that? Are you trying to derail this thread this early?
All you do on this forum is provoke and talk nonsense or act obtuse. That’s an ignore from me.
My point is if selling gold for is your problem, then removing the token is one of the silliest suggestions one can come up with. You should read up on prohibition and how it doesn’t work.
What do you think all these boosters are going to do with their massive amount of gold. Are they just going to invest that into gametime forever?
If the number one boosting service got caught selling gold, what do you think the others are doing lol.
Oranges to apples.
Blizzard just legalized gold selling. They’re the middle man. That’s all.
They do it. But gold selling will be even more prevalent if you removed the WoW token. Because all of a sudden you’ll create a much bigger market. I wrote it a dozen times on this forum - prior to the token being added to the game, it’s fair to say wow gold selling was a market in the hundreds of millions of dollars. It was so big that Steve Bannon, Trump’s advisor, saw fit to invest $60 million in a WoW gold farm in 2007.
Not sure what the token has to do with it, but I’m so tired of seeing "WTS (insert pvp raids or m+) every time I open the LFG. And honestly, I could spend an entire day sitting and reporting people for advertisement - because a lot of them are linking to boosting communities and websites, but I feel like absolutely nothing is being done despite reporting them every time I see them.
