Oh it’s totally not allowed to make real life money, as it breaks the tos and you can suffer penalties for doing this kind of thing.
this is why many armature games that use stolen code get closed down. They believe that they can get away with piggy-backing on a service long enough to make it beneficial.
you basically incriminate yourself by saying you sell items for money.
That’s why I wanted to know more about what you say…or don’t say.
the reason it’s not ok - I believe - is tied to what makes game accessible to all ages and all regions in the world. they don’t want video games turning into a garbage land for exploitation.
if you’re talented with computers, make a real video game and sell it.
Heck you can go from knowing nothing to making an online game in less time it takes to get 99 here. programming was meant to be learned for humans, just have to want to do it.
If he was actually making real money he wouldn’t be boasting about it in front of a large audience like a moron. He would quietly do it and not risk anything.
He’s also bragging about a bunch of other crap…from my experience people like this (especially online) are huge liars or little kids lol.

Im not gonna check this further I said my piece and now I’ll shut up. Your opinions are just as worthless as mine. I was there I knew the people involved and I know what they did. Nothing got done about it by dev team because they are the ones made it possible. You couldn’t handle the truth if I told you. P.S. the biggest drug dealers there are got real jobs and they are probably smarter than you too. As to doubting I made 20 grand, thanks for the compliment, as you can’t believe it. You are correct! Actually I made $22,347.73 in one year on ebay. Thats minus $827.33 in Die cast car sales and 2 video cards that year.
Hello…prior to this software companies went broke selling a title and trying to keep it updated with no further funds coming in. D2 was the first game ever where anyone bought something to further the game after original sales price. It’s what gave birth to the gaming industry as we know it today
Lmao let’s steal off someone else’s hard work that makes you smart.
Please tell that drug dealer to give you more to smoke. Get a real job. People paying taxes and lighting up your street won’t call you smart it’s what we call a leech.

all sales had the disclaimer that the items were property of blizzard entertainment that I was in no way responsible for anything they chose to do with or about it. The fees collected were for the service of my time only. I’ve paid $763,456 in taxes how much have you earned in your life? Less than I’ve paid in taxes. Talk about what you know, not what you think.
Again just talk aload of rubbish you spent that time with means to farm items hence that time was actually used for the sake of blizzards game.
You obviously don’t know how law works because you know how to steal.
It’s like dear judge I was only parked outside of the bank and got paid for my time. I know the 5 robbers got caught but I would like to tell you I did not take the 5 masked robbers anywhere but I still got paid for my time. I am innocent I tell you it’s payment for my time.
Yeah like that will fly… selling someone else’s stolen goods and knowingly doing it still makes it just as bad you can’t say I am selling it on someone’s behalf and getting paid for my time. Please check the terms and conditions blizzard has kindly put forward then come and talk.
I would have had some respect for you if you at least said what you doing is wrong but you need to get paid. Then you became a total looser when you stated your smarter than anyone else who can’t monopolise as its some kind of test for you. Honestly I tell you to get a job but don’t do it… with your mentality your just going to try to figure out how to defraud whoever you work for and then say it was for your time and your smart.
Please convince the 5 year old in your head instead of grown adults here who have real jobs and can read the terms and conditions.
Just so you know what is so smart about farming and putting up an item on ebay. The 5 year old could do that. BTW I am an IT consultant and that year you made 20k I made 5 times that working and 6 times more on my real estate in dubai.
Have you read the law on piracy too I bet if you did that you just going to say i was paid for my time.
BTW the taxes you paid is because you had to… its not like you had a platform to sell you just did what was easy. Then you talk this rubbish about testing yourself and being smart with no website for selling items like Chinese farmers. Even they don’t justify what they do. They do it to get paid and nothing else.
Maybe posting about you breaking the terms of service isn’t a great idea when your using it to put food on the table lol.
What a weird post.

It’s not weird it’s just plain stupid and then trying to justify it.
And this right here is the explanation for what I’m sure is a great many of the so-called “purists” complaining about any changes, and of course the ever-popular “go back to D3,” which OP hit in the very first line of this thread.
It’s nothing to do with the game itself. These “go back to D3” people are terrified that Blizz will patch their illicit revenue stream out of existence.
You can’t be serious. The amount of players running private scripts and item shops makes up a very small percentage of the player base
sometimes those numbers can reach as high as 30% as observed on runescape. (a game I don’t personally play) enough to make the folks who offer the game consider how to maintain the income while removing the threat to the game.
Usually they are observed and removed in such a way that will allow the folks who offer the game to retain the income from the false accounts. they take a negative and turn it into a positive.
if game devs wanted to make a game purely for bots and irl money makers, it wouldn’t float and would be removed from all legitimate platforms. and the designers could face repercussions depending on what country they reside.
better off building a store website or an app in that case. less red-tape as they rely more on the credit card payment system.
This is why amazon doesn’t accept wal-mart gift cards.
lol that was some unexpected content to read given the thread title

I stopped playing D3 after they closed the real money auction house too. Made about $5 grand, back then was real easy to craft items and sell them for $1-$5 dollars.
Wish they would bring that back just regulate it better so it doesn’t turn into gambling.
In my 30 plus years of experience in gaming I’ve yet to see a game that’s made for “everybody”.
If it were even possible it would have been done by now.
People either like it or they don’t. Simples.

Gotta go all the way back to Pong for that, and even then it only qualifies because it was the only video game in existence for a while. 
are you shopping for a ban or something? you sound like you are admitting to being a RMTer 
that’s not very smart in my book.
Well, to start, I am someone that read the EULA.
Congratulations on admitting to breaking the rules? Lol.
Smart move famskies.
Stop ruining legitimate play for everyone else. See what I did there?
