He is just going round in circles at this point

Yes Anniversary servers are really 10x bigger.

You are so uninformed it’s insane.

Refusing to admit that the GDKP ban did anything beneficial for the game only proves its failure. It didn’t stop RMT or botting—that’s an undeniable fact. No matter how you try to spin it or redirect the blame elsewhere, the argument falls apart. If you constantly have to shift the blame to something else, that only reinforces the reality that the so-called ‘solution’ did absolutely nothing.

The GDKP ban was probably the best thing ever to occur in Classic WOW period.

That’s just an empty claim with nothing to back it up. The reality is that the GDKP ban didn’t stop RMT or botting—if anything, bot activity has only increased since its removal.

If the ban was truly ‘the best thing ever,’ then why is the economy worse and why are bots more rampant than before? The facts speak for themselves—Blizzard’s decision didn’t fix the problem, it just shifted it elsewhere while making legitimate gold harder to earn.

Blindly declaring victory without addressing the actual impact doesn’t make an argument stronger—it just proves there’s no real counterpoint to the discussion

It did stop some RMT and botting.

And that is good enough.

Wait a second if the GDKP ban stopped RMT and botting like you said it did here

Then how is this true?

Those two statements counterdict each other. Did the GDKP ban stop RMT and botting or did it not?

Because from where I’m sitting that contradiction alone proves that the ban didn’t actually accomplish anything it just shifted the problem elsewhere

You have reading issues.

I said the GDKP ban stopped some RMT.

If we had GDKPs botting would be way worse.

This right here everyone

Is what is known as a “SPECULATION”

You are speculating the botting is because GDKP was banned which you have no proof of either champ.

I’ve already won this debate.

You can’t GDKP.

Sucks to suck

No, my statement is called an observation, as it is based on actual outcomes and not mere speculation. Since there is clear evidence showing that RMT and botting have remained rampant and even worsened despite the GDKP ban, it is a factual conclusion, not speculation.

There is hard data demonstrating that bot activity and RMT transactions continued unaffected and even increased after the ban. That means this statement is not an assumption based on perception but a logical assessment backed by verifiable trends. Deflecting from this reality doesn’t change the facts.
