Play on a better server.
I will take this useful information under advisement.
Ok letâs say you get to decide and you want to ban GDKP runs.
How do you ban them?
Sorry guys no more pug raids allowed?
We will hire a huge team of GMâs to look for GDKP talk in raid chats?
(Discord could just be used for that instead, or hey why donât you have those GM people out there in the world banning bots which is the ultimate root cause issue of RMTâs ?)
The only way to get rid of GDKP runs is personal loot that canât be traded.
How about getting at the root cause by getting rid of the people selling and buying gold instead ?
Just put him/her on ignore and move on.
You cannot convince a know it all of anything.
Itâs not worth reading what they type in threads like this.
It takes A LOT for me to put somebody on my âIgnoreâ list. A mere disagreement isnât enough of a reason (for ME) to be putting everybody I disagree with, on ignore.
Thatâs the thing. I donât think they âknow it allâ
And, itâs not really about convincing THEM, per se. Thereâs a larger audience than just the people making and creating posts, that Iâm âcateringâ to, as well. Their support matters equally as much.
Perhaps, not to you. For me, it is because I find it comical LOL
I never claimed to be a NICE person
You flag large gold trades and high volumes of gear/gold trades and you review them. It wouldnât take long to weed them out. Obviously they also need to go after RMT as well. It is on blizzard to fix what theyâve allowed to happen.
also known as âyou aint gettin lootâ
If youâre in crap gear, you are on teh GDKP to buy gear, not make gold and get carried. A âhard carryâ player does not earn gold in these. Especially in Naxx.
Never once been my experience in any guild regardless of position in the guild
Which is why I wouldnât bring an alt to such a run because being cut out of the pot because some goober brought his 8/8 T3 Rogue to BWL with WCB and SF is idiotic. Same with avoiding runs where the organizer takes some huge cut of the total at the end.
one time i was with a guild for 5 weeks, topping healing charts and never once did i receive any loot. then they kicked me after calling me a loot goblin. let me find you the video of the gm kicking me one sec
You probably werenât assigned to heal warlocks⌠I would have kicked you too!
You quit and then came back and tried to bribe the GM for loot, didnât participate in the conversation other than some sketchy remarks. You even said you were trying to get loot! You then lied about why you were gone⌠I would have kicked you and added you to the server blacklist lol
Very compelling argument. I love it, when the conversation diverts away from the actual discussion at hand and turns into conversations about oneâs character. I learn so much from those
Make the advertisements reportable.
No, this wonât stop them from happening entirely, but itâll be a move in the right direction and itâll leave LFG free from their advertisements and encourage people to use LFG for itâs original intended purposes.
Another suggestion people have made is to set a particular cap to the amount gold any person can have on any given account. Now a problem with that is that people can start trading âgoodsâ as a service rather than gold (i.e. a stack of Black Lotus instead of 2000g). But still, this makes things more difficult and therefore would be a step in the right direction.
From what Iâve read, private servers did this. There was a lot more hands-on in the day-to-day goings on. In a way, the dishonest brokers who would inflate the bidding prices were compelled not to do so because they knew they were being watched.
If you think thatâs ridiculous, realize Blizzard is also heavily involved in the moderation of Twitch and some Twitch streamers have been caught and entire guilds have been banned for buying gold.

Sounds like you bribed him. Not saying thatâs what happened. Just saying, listening to his point of view, you were bribing him with Arcane Crystals so heâd be incentivized to get you the loot you wanted.
And good on him for doing that, by the way. Plus his stance on how you âlost interestâ and then suddenly came back. Like, he basically told you that you were unreliable. Why would he give you loot if he knows you could flake at any time?
eh i guess thats why youre level 22
Iâm level 60. I agree with him.
What now?
They let me fund my raid consumes by clearing content our guild no longer runs. Its a very time efficient farm to any geared player, and its the only incentive outside of helping your own guildies gear up to raid zones you need nothing from.
