We want to keep GDKP!

Going through this stuff will never be meta, because its way too annoying, and still there is a risk involved. I dont know if you realise the purpose of this kind of regulation, its not to make it absolutely impossible, its to reduce the amount of it happening greatly.

exactly what prohibitions are for.

@Melanieklein-crusader-strike

And im sure, a raidchat full of people biding with euros, is surely not a redflag for any admin watching it. Besides, Discords are always open for everyone, people will find, people will report.

its 100% off-game, on discord, using Poolpay on paypal, so low risk for scams really, and extreemly profittable for ppl doing it with many raiding alts on multiple accounts. we are talking 100k euro +/year. and as cheap as RMT was for whales, but LESS hassle, since the middleman is out.

@Melanieklein-crusader-strike

Also, buying gold for chants,pots, mats is nothing new and banning GDKP will surely not result in people buying more gold for these things lol.

indeed. and with cheaper gold the prices soar. while for us that farm gold the value of it is stabile and dependant on effort/gain in-game.

id love to see someone counter this using economic theory, and not blind faith btw. thats all ppl do, just say no, its not so, and shut their eyes. its a bit Meeh.

i can indeed - but its a long chat - more on this further down where u find green fonts

here:

I see the point but I don’t really agree with this however. Sure, it fits for later expansions but in classic there’s just not enough important items in circulation on the AH for this to be an equivalent problem to GDKP. And if the problem does become equivalent or worse, gold prices would go up again. So worst case you’d reach an equilibrium.

Just use the Gargul addon and DKP or MS>OS, it works and isn’t that much of a hassle in comparison.

I’d dislike GDKP even without the gold buying incentive but that’s much more subjective. It made me quit WOTLK Classic because of prevalent it was.

yea, alot have that xp. i highly doubt GDKP would even be a popular choice without RMT in the game.
and thats what i wrote a fix for in the “the ultimate fix for rmt” a post somewhere further down on this forum.
the time&effort for MOST ppl to gain gold versus doing pugs or guildruns to get geared with normal lootsystems, isnt there without RMT.
it would simply die, or be VERY nische, if RMT was fixed.

Lurky do you not feel embarrassed to be so poorly informed and seemingly uneducated?

/yawn
i feel priviledged to get forumtrolls to laugh at - its a bit like seing a dog love its owner, but the owner beats it. it keeps comming back, poor thing, to get more

[Yangkai-lava-lash]

Ok carry on champ

[Kartone-lava-lash]

In my case i have 5 toons lvl 25 and i’ve collected 150 gold in total.
In my guild we make only 3 raids each week. Why i could not join a raid with one of my reroll and “buy” a item? Is it really impact you guys?
I’ve made my gold with quests and professions so its legit, i should use it the way i want as long as i dont break Blizzard’s rules.

I know we cant really get rid of all the bots but there are many ways to make their lives harder than today. I’m still sure that the problem is them, not the DKDP system.

In second thought, the real problem is the players who want everything right away without even playing the game…

[Driim-nethergarde-keep]

No means no, things are much better this way.

If your guild can’t survive without GDKP and gold-laundering, it was not a very good guild.
