Hey all,
Since few weeks/months we have toxics players specifically on the Horde side on the Spineshatter EU PVP server who are trying to get people banned for several reasons about Maraudon Boosting.
These players are deliberately driving up prices about Maraudon runs, for exemple for 5 runs of 330+ mobs you will pay 125 golds, normally it would cost you 85 golds or 90 golds maximum for 5 runs but these players have toxic behavior to force other players who set lower prices than they do.
They contact you via private messages on the game and tell you to raise your prices, because if you don’t, they’ll have to compete and no one will come to them because their prices are very high (for a bad quality…).
You have two options: either you give in out of fear and raise your prices, or you refuse their offer and continue to set your prices lower, but they’ll tell you that they’ll make sure to mass report you to get your account banned from the game. They take advantage of this system because if a player is reported by a lot of people, there’s a good chance he’ll be automatically blocked without a Blizzard support team having studied the request manually… You will then have to create a support request so that Blizzard can check it manually and detect the error, although this may take several days.
They also wait for the slightest mistake on your part when you post an ad in the wrong channel to mass report you to get you banned.
The vast majority of these players have two accounts, one in the alliance faction and one in the horde faction, if you don’t want to take their offer they follow you with their Alliance account on every layers you are and after that they will connect their Horde account for klilling you and your “clients” that you are boosting. Just reminder that union between Alliance and Horde are not allowed.
When you decide to create a group to go and fight these people and kill the boosters who want to intimidate you, they log on to their account of the same faction as you (Alliance) to threaten and insult you. Here you can saw that on this screenshot of today :

I have in my possession a discord on which this community is grouped together and regularly posts information about players who don’t want to be intimidated by them, i will post many screenshots of that :

Even if you post on “Services” where you allowed to post your boosting they report you

Finaly, if you tell them that you will kill them and make FREE boost for your faction they also report you too

It would also be a good idea for Blizzard to impose restrictions on servers according to their geographical zone. As a large proportion of these players are not located in Europe, it would be preferable to prevent them from importing their negative behavior and illegal activities…
These kinds of situations can make the gaming experience unpleasant for many players and it has no place in the game. Hopefully things will change once and for all.
