Auto gold ban

Just curious, how would you ever go about proving you didn’t, given that we would have access to no evidence to the contrary, and only Blizz’s claim that they did (and they are far from infallible)

Ban gold trading. Self found SOD from now on

It falls under Blizzard’s definition of GDKP. The rules are quite clear if you actually read them.

I stopped even mailing gold between my two accounts. If the algorithm flags the transaction, you are dealing with AI customer service and they will not investigate. Better to just not share gold right now.

Making it so you can’t even farm as a group and split what drops is just incredibly stupid and antithetical to Classic. It’s also literally not GDKP.

Blizzard considers it a form of GDKP, and their definition is the only one that matters. Any selling of what drops in a dungeon or raid and splitting it among the group is against the rules.

lmao.

Actually, that’s not what it says?

“We’re defining GDKP as any raid or dungeon run where items are awarded in exchange for gold.” Items are not being awarded in exchange for gold in this scenario.

So here you are, simping for this rule enforcement, and you didn’t even read it correctly. Incredible.

I don’t know why any of you are humoring this talk. OP bought gold and tried laundering it and was surprised it didn’t work and is trying to misdirect all of you.

Because a CS agent is not a part of the banning process, but can review the internal reasons in what led to it.

They’re quite good at bringing to light the truth of a matter. Especially when 9 times out of 10 the “innocent” OP is far from such.

There have been exceptions and the blue who responded indicated such through telling the individual to continue to advocate through the ticketing system.

I’m more apt to believe someone who works for a company stating what they’re seeing from the inside than a random sock puppet claiming they’ve been wronged in some way and sprint straight to general discussion in lieu of the customer service forum.

Sure they are. BoE drops in a dungeon. People bid on the item. Someone wins the bid. The cut is split among everyone in the group. The bidding taking place on the AH instead of inside the instance doesn’t change the fact this is still a GDKP. These people tried to circumvent the rules and got caught.

yes because no one ever lies on reddit, that would be illegal.

funny how these people post their stories everywhere besides the customer support forum. i wonnnnnder why.

Roll against your guildmates and keep all the gold for selling the BoE to yourself, because sharing the spoils of something you earned together is “GDKP.” Absolutely braindead LOL.

AH is GDKP. Ban the AH.

Is the AI actually working?

Blizzard? Automating bans? Noooo, they couldn’t possibly do that. They just recruited AI buddies to cover their shifts while they spent a nice 6 month vacation on bobby’s yacht.

Lol, blizzard CS isn’t going to do anything about it… no way they have more than 3 people working it. I hope I’m wrong and you get your stuff fixed… but anyone who has faith in blizzard’s cs is naïve fool.

Apparently. People are posting on here and Reddit about getting banned for circumventing the rules. AI doesn’t care about wanna be WoW lawyers trying to argue about how they technically didn’t break the rules because it isn’t explicitly stated in ToS even though what they did is clearly against the spirit and intent of the rules.

I find it exceptionally hard to believe that preventing a guild group from splitting the profits from a drop they farmed together is in the “spirit” of the rule. And I guess it’s fine if the BoE drops outside instanced content and the group splits it the exact same way?

They tried to cheese their way around the GDKP ban and it failed. Deal with it.
