GDKPs are a gateway to gambling

Not only do GDKPs cause rampant RMT and short circuit the entire point of the game (character progression) they are now addicting players to gambling.

GDKPs clearly have to be stopped.

I just listened to a streamer rant about how he lost 34k gold gambling in a single GDKP with an addon made specifically for gambling in WOW.

This is degenerate behavior will only continue to get worse until WOW is a giant casino for RMTers.

This game needs to be saved from the GDKP menace before it’s too late.

Every single GDKP uses Gamba addon now. I thought Blizzard didn’t allow gambling in ToS? Especially as a game made available to children. I also see gold sellers camped out in capitol cities with a bank alt nearby that will run “casinos” 24/7.

I think it’s a front to launder RMT tbh

Yes this should be investigated by countries where gambling isn’t allowed because it is very prevalent now. Literally everyone is using the gambling addon in GDKPs.

I’ve reported the casino duo that camps out in the capitol. There is a boosted 58 in communal gear with a bank alt, and a level 1 nearby with a bank alt. They work as a team and are running the casino literally every time I log on. They hardly speak outside of running their casino addon and I’m 99.9999% sure they are gold sellers. Despite my reports they continue to run casinos 24/7.

Blizz just doesn’t seem to care about RMT or violations of ToS, because a lot of subs are coming from areas that RMT and violate ToS heavily…and Blizz doesn’t want to lose business.

Well that’s a fallacy mate.

If you really wanted to talk about it, you should of compared GDKP to win trading.

Should death rolls be banned too?

It’s gambling if you use real money , not fake useless digital gold, with no meaning in real life

The only people I have ever seen complain about GDKPs are always bad at the game. They don’t like having to be a buyer role in GDKPs because this means they would have to figure out how to farm gold.

They would prefer to be a hybrid role so they can get a big payout that they always see people talking about, but they don’t like having to properly progress through entry level dungeons and raids like everyone else did so that they actually contribute something to the raid. Forget them even considering being a carry role, for that would require them to actually put time and effort into their character.

No, players who complain about GDKP are just mad that a large portion of players have figured out how to do raids that no longer carry and reward useless deadweight.

Again, same person on his millionth alt…stop spamming dude.

Maybe if you spent half the time you spend posting here in game frostfire you would be levrl 70 with a raiding guild.

Anytime you see anyone advertising or looking for a GDKP, submit a ticket stating that you heard them in voice on discord saying they were RMT’ing. Blizzard will investigate so you don’t have to worry about falsely banning anyone, but Blizzard will ban them if they RMT - and they almost always do.

Stopping GDKP is a community effort. Report all GDKP runners, and the 3% leftover that don’t RMT can form groups with themselves… if there’s enough people.

So what youre saying is that you like to falsely report a ton of innocent people which is also a punishable offense. Very nice.

Ironically enough people have been gambling on retail for years. Crossgamble addon has been in wow for a solid 8-10 years now. I literally won over 10mill off a monk healer in my guild on retail during Nathria progression on retail. It’s good fun. Why you care so much how other players spend THEIR gold is the problem here.

Not to mention all of you people saying GDKP peeps are RMTers, thats also BS. Most of the carries/hybrids are high end raiders who want some incentive to continue running raids that offer them no gear. Carrying lazy useless people should come at a cost to them.

So a loot system is now responsible for a gambling addon when said gambling addon could be used in any loot system, or really just anytime, anywhere.

Uh huh.

Anti gdkp players are actually more braindead than anti rdf players at this point on jah.

Easiest muted thread of my life.

Edit: Because its short atm I read some posts in this thread.

Point proven when I said braindead. Go on, go file false reports against players and openly admit to it on the forums. Big brain.

Bidding does not equal gambling

An addon people chose to use is irrelevant

With the prevalence of RMT, gold is tied to irl money.
