GDKP in Season of Discovery

116k is nothing especially when doing multiple gdkp’s on alts.

I think combined on my account in era i had like 40k gold from doing gdkp’s and i never bought any gold.

You just underestimate players who know how to play the game and make gold.

Lol 116k is alot of gold in Era,Sod,Vanilla.

Obvious demand for gdkp’s to return hopefully soon enough.

A majority of which you got by buying gold or doing gdkp with gold buyers

Is there any actual evidence of this?

I would be willing to be people have gold cap in SoD too, so I’m not sure why you keep referencing a gressil for 116k.

Because he is poor and that’s why he hates gdkp’s.

99% of the players who hate gdkp’s when you take a look who they are they are either poor / casuals or have grey/green parses and are terrible at the game.

Good players / players who know how to make gold and play the game are always pro gdkp.

Still crying on the forums huh, thought you were going to quit because you didn’t get your way with the xfers? Lmao

Will be good to see them revisit this policy.

I do actually think right now would be a super interesting time to reintroduce GDKP as an experiment to see if it is indeed harmful to the game or not harmful.

If it truly was an experiment we’ve done the control group part, now we need to see what happens if it comes back.

Will botting and RMT go on the rise and will pug groups die?

We will never know

Dungeon OR raid. As I said earlier on another toon of mine and everyone argued with me. See even this guy said it so clearly I was right when I said it. And I actually said that a few years ago too on a different posting toon of mine and then again about a year ago.

And then other people said it too. But you people always like to argue about anything and everything that upsets you or that you do not like reading about.

K? And all you used it wrong so that is probably why it got BANNED when it was perfectly okay in WoW 2004 and beyond.

It is a point system that you can earn points in and then you can bid on stuff.

But in WoW’s version which is not the true point stystem…you all had to buy your way into GDKPs with gold, not earning your way in with skill. So why take an Everquest term and then do it incorrectly and call it a GDKP when it was all about buying your way in with gold deposits anyways.

GDKPs and DKPs are not from WoW, so you people didnt know how to do them correctly and so the system got banned because all the people who didnt do them got gatekept out of getting gear while in other MMOs that have actually done GDKPs correctly, that was never the case. That is why every single other MMO that has them does 100% fine with them and yet only ONLY World of Warcraft players had a problem with it because none of you understood it and you people didn’t know how to do them correctly. I swear to god you people just wanted to be greedy gatekeepers so you disguised it by calling it the GDKP system when the new WoW version was 100% different.

You people got a good system banned because you didn’t know what it was or how to use it. Yea, rage at me. Idc. It is the PLAYER’S fault this version of GDKP was so terrible and had to get banned. We had them in WoW before and not a single person complained about them back then because EQ was still really popular and so everyone knew what a GDKP was.

And my theory as to why YOU people raged at me when I did say that GDKPs in the ORIGNAL days COULD be used in dungeons as well is because a lot of you people suck at leadership and so you have to have your entire raid group of buddies next to you running your greedy GDKPs when a good leader can be the one and ONLY GDKP lead in a dungeon and give out loot that people BID for and you can ONLY bid on it IF you performed well. Only people who didn’t like GDKPs are those who had no friends to help them get into GDKP groups and actually get the stuff cleared. Rage at me all you want, but I am once again…100% RIGHT about this that GDKP Can be used in dungeons as well and it was originally a POINT system but no… you people didn’t treat GDKPs as a point system… you just treated it as a buy your way in with bidding gold system.

You know, if you people actually ran your GDKPs correctly…people would have loved them and they wouldn’t have been banned. The WoW community used it 100% as a bidding system and removed the point system from it, you all said you didn’t, but you did.

And in the actual, original version of the GDKPs, you didn’t need gold to buy your way in.But na, none of you WoW players did the actual version of a GDKP. You people honestly thought that GDKPs came from WoW.

And no. This ban has nothing to do with their being no WoW tokens in SoD. It’s because you people literally did them incorrectly here and had them based upon a greedy gatekeeping bidding system instead of a player performance system where you have to EARN you way in to THEN be able to put your gold in. So you all made it a bidding system which encouraged people to have to buy gold from sites outside of WoW.

So YOU people got GDKPs banned because you have no clue what they actually are our how to run them. I don’t care. I will argue with everyone of you and I don’t care if several hundred people think I am wrong when this is the exact same group of people who told me they were never used for dungeons ever.

Yea go play Cata where they are still allowed. You can play your own warped version of what you think is actually a GDKP when it isn’t. This is also the same group of people who argue with me when I say it is actually very possible to kill a shaman in a 1v1 in SoD PvP. Skill issue. Git gud.

The main problem is community won’t change how GDKP in WoW works, once you allow them back, the greed comes back at full swing, with the gold buying part too, we will never escape it.

Its great being on her ignore list

We could only get so lucky!!!

Because we already the control from years of it not being banned that is the control!!!

We know the answer GDKPs where banned and more people started raiding in guild groups!! How the game was ment to be played!!!

It seems you omitted the detail that the leader takes a 20-25% cut from the top, plus an additional 5% for tanks. Often, the raid leader is also one of the tanks. In a traditional GDKP, the entire pot was divided equally among all raid members, not just 65% split among 22 people.

I agree they should never of been banned to begin with biggest mistake of sod and cost a large % of the playerbase.

Impacted the game so negatively they had to merge all servers into 2 from loss of players.

delusional at best, most of the classic playerbase don’t want gdkp to even exist.

Yet gdkp’s have always existed in classic and have been the most popular way of raiding.

Ironic right.

They aren’t popular at all aside for gold buyers/sellers. Most of the playerbase when he choice is present, will not interact as logs prove it.

The only expection is when the endgame scene is dead and gold buyers are interacting witht he same people over and over again to do it. There is no thriving raiding scene in classic onl swipers swiping between themselves.

They did not revisit the polcie because it was not needed to revisit, nobody needs it aside people with 30+ doing less than 40k/year
