GDKP Ban - Blizzards Failed Experiment + Player Feedback

inb4
Wait till AQ / Naxx comes out…
You’ll never get full bis…

These guys don’t even play the game haha and half of them lie about everything it’s wild.

Give players there own gdkp server it has absolutely 0 impact on the server you play on and best of all you get rid of all the people you seem to dislike the most.

Only real explanation to why they would oppose this is they don’t actually care about gdkp’s they just want to control peoples choice , troll and grief legitimate players.

Either support a gdkp server so we can get away from anti gdkp clowns or be quiet about it.

Probably himself.
There’s so few pro-GDKPers that they have to post on multiple characters, like their own posts, and even converse with themselves.

It’s really funny. 99% of the ex-GDKPers have accepted the ban. But for some it was such a big business for them they’ll never move on.

I see this happening equally for pro gdkp and anti gdkp.

Most people simply don’t care, pro gdkp and anti gdkp are minority either way.

It’s funny but they surely know moderators can see the base account and ip the posts come from lol.

Perhaps. Admittedly my attention is aimed more towards one group of posters, since they’re the ones who make daily spam threads. And they’re almost always made by characters with 0 posts. It’s hard to see that go on for a year without seeing a pattern.

But also those spam threads have kind of stopped of late. The mods had deleted a few and I guess the spammers got the message.

If there’s this much cohesion, competency, and camaraderie between the groups why not just form a guild?

If not that then at least have a treasure take care of gold and the like before the raid and then dole out rewards on a need basis rather than bogging down the run with a bidding war every time a boss drops. Sounds like the opposite of efficiency.

Only hitting the low hanging fruit and putting anyone else on ignore

Most GDKPers are in a guild, GDKP is what they do on off nights.

Which is yet another benefit for people pugging into them.

Can’t buy and sell gold for loot if you join a guild

You know that’s what this is all about. You’ve checked out those discords. You’ve seen what they advertise and offer. So you know what these guys say in the forum is utter BS.

And they think blizzard employees havnt been on gdkp discords.

“Hey guys if we pretend hard enough no one buys gold everyone will believe us right? Right?”

If discord and blizz forums were linked, these gdkpers would be in severe trouble.

In the Blue post where they first banned GDKPs I’m pretty sure Blizz said they had infiltrated the discords.

Or maybe it was an interview. I know they said that somewhere.

More mystery quotes and facts that no one else has ever seen, shocking. Mass reporting people on Maladath was 100% worse than any gold buying btw

They would of joined a server, had 4 random letter names add them asking if they wanted to buy gold and thought nope, gdkps are done.

Hey, I found it.

“GDKP is an excellent way to launder money and an excellent way to obfuscate the movement of illicit gold. Without that sort of shield, it’s making it a lot easier for us to clean up other things and be a little bit more steadfast about other aspects of the economy.”

Valletta was similarly positive, in particular stressing that initial anger with the decision from some portions of the community seems to have abated.

“I think it’s safe to say that this early on, it’s hard to make a conclusion. So far we are, it’s looking rather like a positive change. I will say this is totally anecdotal and this isn’t backed by any of our data as of yet. We’ve been surfing the Discords that we’ve snuck into and browsing community Reddits, social media, and our official forums.”

Sometimes my mind actually works. Anyway, yeah Blizz has seen how shady and corrupt this system is as well.

The gdkpers bragging it’s still happening not realising blizzard are watching and going “they can’t even be trusted not to gdkp, how can we trust them not to buy gold”

Hopefully they’ve infiltrated elrons servers. Can see how two faced he is. No wonder he gets completely ignored :joy:

Great post to support what you said

Yup. It’s why when these GDKPers come to the forums and lie and make this stuff up I just laugh. There is a seedy underbelly to the whole system. Blizz has witnessed it as well.

Yeah it will be good when they provide a server for gdkp players or revert the failed gdkp policy and actually go after rmt and bots.
