Ok, so, hypothetically… let us say I have over $500 million and plan on playing Classic WoW like 60+ hours a week. I have 3 other people live in my mansion and pay them $50k a year + housing/food/utilities free on me. The catch is they have to play WoW 7 hours a day and funnel 90% of their gold to me. During the 7 hours, they are strictly making as much gold as they can. Whoever makes more than 5000g gets an extra $300 for the week.
This way all I have to do is raid and PvP all while being fully flasked/elixered/potted/etc. I can get the rest myself, like tubers/dragons breath/etc. So I can be that 8.5k HP Elemental Mage going around PvPing all day.
Would any of this break ToS/ToA?
If so, what would one have to do to make it work so it is not against the ToS/ToA?
As far as I’m aware it’s not against the ToS to give someone gold, only for people to sell it.
Maybe theres a way around the ToS by trading something worth $X to the people involved?
But I’m pretty sure theres a heap of loopholes blizzard have in their ToS that allow them to ban anybody at anytime for anything.
Thats only 143g PH.Not an unachieveable amount but def a nuisance to farm consistantly.
Giving people gold or items or whatever in WoW is not against any rules.
Doing it for real world things is, if Blizzard ever finds out that’s what you’re doing which they wont unless somebody specifically tells them.
The fact you’d have multiple characters funneling nearly everything they get into you however? That would be incredibly suspicious. It might get your account locked just because they think you’re a gold seller.
and you’d have a rather difficult time explaining all this to them without admitting you were paying people IRL to farm gold for you =P
If I want to PvP let’s say 40 hours in a week I would need 20 flasks of the titans. Then include pots/elixirs/food and then you will understand why it is needed.
Pay some of your todies to farm and make your flasks.
Need other consumables? Manufacture that too.
Money is nice, but to truly be wealthy is to own the means of production and distribution.
Because as you should understand, money is only as good as the promise and faith made by the system of banking that it’s a medium for trade that they, the bankers are charging you the user usery for.
The moment anybody reports you for being the human version of Gallywix, Blizzard will check your gold transactions, and getting such large amounts on a weekly basis is like raising a giant red flag, the same goes for the people giving you that gold.
So you are saying just have the 3 people make what I would otherwise be spending the gold on? Just have them Donate the stuff to the Guild bank and have them retain the gold on their accounts instead of funneling it to me.
