I hate people like you who just assume GDKP = gold buyer. I’ve GDKP’d for a long time and never once bought gold. I enjoy using my overgeared toon to carry GDKPs to fund my alts. Why raid for free on a toon that needs nothing from the raid when I can raid and get paid gold for it? It’s an incentive for geared people to keep playing the game. GDKPs also keep a higher demand on consumes which helps keep professions like enchanting, alchemy, etc relevant and profitable.

Era/Wotlk would be screwed with or without GDKP, because niether servers have any form of gold sink. The only reason retail isnt screwed is bc of wow tokens. People who get too much gold just turn it into bnet balance / subscription time.
More than one person has said “we look for gold buyers” when forming GDKPs, so as true as what you’re saying may be. So is this.

It’s crazy that you’re long winded blowing smoke up your own butt while literally being wrong af. There is 0 gold sinks in Classic era that can’t be paid for with copper ore
It was a joke troll post but then i realized i was no better than anybody who tries to claim gdkps don’t drive inflation and i deleted it.
Already contradicting your first post that no one likes farming. The reason one hour of GDKP gives you the proceeds from 7 hours of farming is because it’s not humans doing the farming. It’s obvious.
Again GDKPs don’t require bots or RMT, but making 7 hours worth of gold farming from one hour of raid does.
Bring back gdkps and perma ban all gold buyers and sellers!

The point isn’t to remove RMT it’s to remove GDKP.
See here, you totally understand and agree with me then. If more money on the server drives inflation regardless of source, with no gold sink to get rid of it, and gdkps drive demand for gold buying that creates currency to inject into the market, then the only logical conclusion is that gdkp drives inflation by injecting currency into the market.
The only possible argument you could make now that you’ve admitted the direct correlation between inflation and the availability of currency, is that gdkp doesn’t promote rmt. That’s laughable and i doubt its a point you’re trying to make.
Its always good when one of you proves my point for me. Thank you.
umm confused… bc… anyway you look at it you need gold and that seems to be ur problem… either you are the carry and still farming ur stuff to be good … or you are the buyer and… if you cant even get the gold for raid consumes… how were you buying gear with gold in gdkp bro? … don’t play game if have to cheat to enjoy it …

Should I even reply or you gonna delete this one too? LOL
The amount that GDKP “encouraged RMT” is a drop in the bucket compared to all the things that “encourage RMT”.
Which is why there are MORE bots than ever and why there was no inflation in phase 1. It was and always has been a boogeyman.
You still benefited from gold buying whether you personally bought any or not.

Have you ever sold anything on the auction house? You most likely benefited from RMT.
The issue isn’t GDKP, it’s the fact the blizzard won’t actively ban/police bots and give gold buyers and sellers slaps on the wrist.

The AH is supported by Blizzard. GDKP isn’t.
my guy BLIZZARD LITERALLY SELLS GOLD IN WRATH.
It’s crazy that some people think Blizz is the hero for banning GDKPs when in reality they did it as a scapegoat to not get blamed for botting as much as they were a few weeks ago.
What kind of thinking is this?
This the same line from people that try the classic ‘gotcha’: “Do you own a smartphone? Well, you benefitted from slave labor. Feel bad!”
Really? I’ll hold your hand.
You go farm stuff for agi pots and put them on the AH. RMT guy comes along and buys all your pots.
