Customer: Sir my steak is raw.

Waiter: well you should blame that customer eating over there!!! It’s their fault!!

Customer: Did they pick the steak out? Did they cook the steak?

Waiter: No they had nothing to do with the steak, but it’s their fault!

This is literally Blizzard.

Do you need to be careful who you sell auctions to? Who you take tips from for crafted goods?

Generally speaking, no. If you are putting up a grey apple for 500k and a gold selling account buys it, so that you get illicit gold? Yeah that can be an issue.

Putting up some cloth for the going price? No, I would not worry about that.

There are specific patterns they look for. Either certain behaviors or contact with certain accounts, esp repeat contacts.

When is blizzard gonna publish what acceptable BFD gdkps prices are?

Can’t wait for this months issue of acceptable prices.

[Lorethon-moon-guard]

Good luck Drinknblink,

Like all of us, you makes your choices and deals with the consequences. Knowing some of the risks helps with that.

Good to hear you’re outside. Weather been crazy, drive safely!

This was already covered Drink.

@Mirasol-mannoroth

Sadly that is not going to happen. No more than the local police telling you what price for a watch is too good to be true. They will only tell you to beware unofficial sales/trades and that there exists the possibility that it is stolen. You get caught with stolen property once, it might be an accident. A person who regularly has stolen property is usually penalized as being part of the operation, even if adjacent and not directly engaging in the theft.

That’s is not down to Blizzard.

RMT is banned, most people are not happy with blizzard’s enforcement though.

GDKP’s are explicitly allowed and have nothing to do with RMT.

And the game has never been a swipe fest so the answer is no it’s not.

myself and all my friends during classic all the way to wrath classic bought gold and had multiple characters in GDKP.

YOU sir are WRONG!

[Drinknblink-benediction]

Did you let everybody know you bought gold before you went into the gdkps??

[Drinknblink-benediction]

Nothing seems to be blizzard responsibility.

And you don’t seem to be understanding how bad that is

[Khanzy-chaos-bolt]

Been using that false equivalence in every thread. Gets explained just like you put it and they keep using it…

[Draug-shattered-hand (Draug)]

Admitting to gold buying? where do I report this player? Is there a bounty system in place where I can get like 5% of the gold he bought in legitimate gold from Blizzard?

[Drinknblink-benediction]

Because logically it’s stupid.

How do you want players to investigate people’s gold?

God forbid we hold the company responsible

[Khanzy-chaos-bolt]

Common tactic by them.

@Drinknblink-benediction

I don’t buy gold.

@Drinknblink-benediction

Nothing seems to be blizzard responsibility.

I’m trying to figure out if you are trolling or not, I don’t know why you can’t figure out Blizzard don’t set that price, the GDKP bids do.

@Drinknblink-benediction

And you don’t seem to be understanding how bad that is

I don’t care as I don’t do GDKP, I have a guild that’s fair with loot handouts.

@Drinknblink-benediction

God forbid we hold the company responsible

Why would we hold the company responsible for it? It’ something that’s completely under the control of the players running it. If Blizzard made rules it would be really hard to police it.

I have major anxiety and other issues. It has been more than 15 years since I have done group content and even then it was with people I knew IRL.

You will always be welcome to join us if you need a place to play.

Blizzard banned 270k accounts last month. That averages to 9000 accounts/day. How many is that per minute? Those numbers are crazy. Think of the real world money involved, both by the cheaters and by Blizz fighting the cheaters.

To say Blizz isn’t bringing the hammer down is just not correct. I’d avoid anything to do with the cheating. Anyway, off to prospect and stuff. Y’all have fun and be good now, ya hear?

[Ragebar-wild-growth]

I mean this is pretty terrifying. I can go out, get a good item to drop, sell it on the AH and an RMT player buys it and I can get banned? That is pretty bad moderation. That’s like a guy going to a hardware store and buying a hammer, beating someone with the hammer, then the police throwing the owner of the hardware store in jail.

[Drinknblink-benediction]

@Dottie-guldan

I don’t buy gold.

That’s the point, how do we know?

I have no way of checking.

That being said why can I be held responsible if you’re in a gdkp and you buy gold and I have no way of checking?

This is literally the whole point.

It’s a cop out to put it on the players and idc what side of gdkp you stand on its unacceptable for it to be the responsibility of paying customers.

[Cauchy-heartseeker]

They need to have time s in all versions of the game.
