Banning GDKPs is beyond Stupid

But you can get on the forums! Heyo

One of the people I work with posted a link to the GDKP ban, I came to gloat. Blizzard killed Wow. :man_shrugging:

How does that make you feel?

Like I have given blizzard an extra 10 minutes of my attention that blizzard doesnā€™t deserve.

my favorite thing about people like youā€¦ is that your ā€œlogicā€ is horrendous.

you refuse to bring up actual facts or references. donā€™t get on some high horse just because you are actually an idiot.

Lol bless your heart getting mad and resorting to name calling because youā€™ve embarrassed yourself with a complete lack of a competent argument. The logic isnā€™t bad just because you canā€™t understand it. The WoW economy is a fantastic microcosm of the US economy and it makes no difference to me whether you can comprehend that.

Guess what? GDKPS ARE STILL BANNED IN PHASE 2 LMAOOOOOO ENJOY PHASE 2!

Do you think the top 1% of players with gold will lose that gold with GDKPs being gone? Will they be unable to buy the markets?

I donā€™t think it is ignorant to understand that the epic purple staff costing 90g in a GDKP is far more than it cost me to fully consume and have a handful of raid ready alts. The cost isnā€™t even close.

you again refuse to bring up any facts / resources to support your ā€œlogicā€

are you okay?

I can 100% be convinced that GDKPs are the badguy. if you actually put effort into showing me how they are.

you are not smart enough to convince me otherwise.

Nope, the economy is already ruined and thereā€™s no going back. Thatā€™s a big part of the reason I quit SoD. People like them (and gold buyers like you) ruin every online multiplayer game they touch so I love seeing the outrage when the system they used to ruin said economy is taken from them.

I already explained it. However, trying to explain how an economy works to you is like a calculus professor trying to teach a dog how to calculate the derivative of a curve. I can explain something to you, but I canā€™t understand it for you.

Guess what? GDKPs are still banned in phase 2! :joy:

You donā€™t think the bots are the problem?

Since they actually create gold?

Bro Iā€™ve heavily implied bots are the problem at least half a dozen times in this thread. Like I said earlier, your inability to connect the dots is remarkable. My god dudeā€¦

Iā€™d pay to see people arguing for and against GDKPs to take a competency exam and compare the results. I feel like the people against GDKPs are either the rich trying to get richer or the ignorant that canā€™t comprehend how it impacts those that donā€™t even participate.

But Bots will exist even without GDKPs, right?

Yes, unless you falsely assume that the bots will leave with gdkps. (They will not)

Something else will replace gdkps and bots will be more active than ever. This will always be the case unless something more can be done about bots directly.

100% the later. Removing GDKPs only affects those that did GDKPs. Most others wonā€™t notice any anything.

Anyone knowledgeable about real world economic theory who isnā€™t a complete larper would instantly realise that applying real world economic theory to a video game is not going to work. Video game economies break every rule, the wow economy makes basically no sense if you try to view it through the vision of an economy class

This is just false. The demand will drop and some gold farmers will return to the other classic servers because there will be a surplus on SoD servers.

The demand will not drop, it will simply move to some other thing.

GDKPS will be replaced by another way to buy items for gold. This time it will be exclusive to swipers most likely though.
