Your facts have the same weight as “everything is either a potato or not a potato.”
You’re using rmt as a scare tactic. The gdkp ban outright reduces the amount of items players can purchase from raids period. You’re just using rmt specifically for mental manipulation and twisting of the actual reality the ban is. You’re arbitrarily adding in rmt as a way to try to gaslight everyone else into thinking that all gdkp was rmt when that’s just not factually correct.
You’re unbelievably disingenuous and it’s disgusting. You should feel bad but I know you can’t physically feel shame because you’ve lived shameless your whole degen life.
It had no visible effect on RMT or botting, ergo all it actually does is limit player agency. ESPECIALLY when blizzard makes ZERO effort to actually curb RMT and botting. They’ve gained nothing except a bunch of idiot white knights on the forums thinking the game is saved from evil GDKP where everyone must be a buyer or seller.
Your buddy was just talking about showing evidence, you guys have 0 evidence of this also.
Logically it reduces the incentive a lot, and as the raid tiers go on it reduces the incentive even further as you can’t purchase the best gear via GDKP’s.
Click your profile picture in top right, click the little person icon, preferences, users, click on person you want to block so you can see their server name, type it in manually in the ignored box.
Sorry bud, you guys begged for the ban, yet RMT is worse than ever no amount of your coping or feelings will change that. I know you watched a meta goblin video and think you understand things but you dont
The evidence is the rampant botting and RMT still happening. In the worst amounts we’ve seen. It reduces ONE incentive of RMT, it doesn’t affect the vast majority of RMT being BIS boes, and constant consumable purchases so they can raid log.
Which by the way, is what people have been doing on SoD, in large quantities, IN SPITE of the free dailies that give like 70g per day.
We can raid on our mains just fine, there’s 0 reason to ever pug. Ever. You’ve actively harmed the game for a band-aid fix that doesn’t do anything without further support (banning RMT/bots for more than a week)/
This is people being annoyed at how blinded you weirdo’s are by the RMT implications but you don’t care anymore once GDKP is banned as if now it’s all fixed.
And your platitudes of “oh it’s the first step”, sorry this is blizz, it’s the only step. So it’s pointless. It’s actually pointless when you take in the harm it does to the pug scene as a whole. Watch SoD, Naxx soon, the pug scene is borderline dead on WG ally already. You cannot clear AQ big with the average pug on WG. Also get ready on fresh, once ranking is out, r10 warriors everywhere, huge drop in pug needs. R13/14? 90% of your pug base is gone. And has 0 reason to return.
Being excited for not being able to pug higher difficulty content is low IQ stuff.
