I literally did, Final Fantasy 14. But if you want another one, ESO also has a gold selling problem, and I guarantee you when it launches New World will also have a gold selling problem if it doesn’t provide the ability to purchase game currency with whatever store currency they choose to use.
That wasn’t what you said, you said MMOs that sell their own currency don’t have issues with account hacking or illegal sellers. FF14 doesn’t sell it’s own currency. I said name one that does and doesn’t have these issues.
Rofl, yes it does. In fact, in a lot of cases, it’s cheaper than the token.

Then please, explain how it works. You cannot trade the WoW token in Classic/TBC Classic because the item doesn’t exist there, and even if you could argue “Oh they trade it on retail and then in classic they trade gold” that also doesn’t work because the WoW token cannot be manually traded via the trade window. It must be put on the AH. That’s the only place it can be sold.
I opened a ticket and asked a GM if it was allowed to trade Retail Gold for WoW Gold. The GM told me that it was ok. I have proceeded to unload all my Retail gold and Ive currently made close to 2k Gold so far.
I have a screenshot of the ticket. Not sure how to post it here.
But its NOT against the ToS! There is just no Shop option to do this on retail. So Trade me 200g meet me on my retail server for a WoW token and weve made the trade. Id post the GM Screenshot but im not sure how to on here…
