Except, by your own admission, at least 10% of them can…
You’re also failing to address the claim that the GDKP ban even had any impact on RMT. Care to explain why I’m still getting mail ingame advertising gold selling sites, then?

bc you have a history of buying gold from illicit sites. are you gonna ask why you have naughty stuff pop up in your browser ads all the time next?
But it does indirectly impact them. A victim less crime has 0 impact on others.
I disagree.
We need to ban regular pugs.
All these pugs and their Hard Reserves and it’s ALWAYS a fresh 50 leading. They’re all so selfish and just want to be carried to free gear. These pugs can’t do pugs without HRs. ALL these pugs are basically GDKPs for people who are broke. If for some reason they can’t get the gear, they’ll just ninja loot it. They’re ALL ninjas.
One time, I finally found a Mara pug without any hard reserves at all. It was a miracle! I really wanted that dagger off princess. I messaged them to join and they told me no casters allowed. Why does the group leader not want any casters in the group but him? Why do they gatekeep?
Oh yeah. DATA. These regular pugs need to provide data. Blizzard has the data on all these hard reserves and ninja looters. These regular pugs need to provide data and prove there are no hard reserves and ninja looters, or they should stay banned.
What else? INFLATION!!! These same people are so lazy that they never want to farm anything and it breaks the economy. Consumables are 20x the price because no one is farming herbs. I don’t know anything about the economy, but INFLATION!! THE ECONOMY IS BROKEN.
Edit: I forgot to add. We are the majority and you are the minority. I have no data to back this up but I know it’s a fact. The majority OBVIOUSLY does not want regular pugs.

the gdkp community are such clowns.
That’s not correct by the definition of the term. A victimless crime only involves a perpetrator and/or consenting adults.
it is not my job to work for blizzard and figure out how to enforce their own terms of service. however i do think that this “team of 50 professionals” should take into account the fact that the people who RMTd in phase 1 to participate in GDKPs likely still RMT in order to buy powerful boes (shadowblade, flurry axe, darkmoon cards come to mind) and that the ban had little effect other than to make casual players more happy (which is likely why they wont unban it) and make people who like to do gdkps unhappy (many still play the game as they dont only care about whatever loot system is used unlike people not in their runs, and despite what you think many runs have 0 people who rmt and there are guilds where they do gdkps and non gdkps)
lol
The only “gold buying” I’ve done, if that even counts, is from WoW tokens, an officially approved method. And those aren’t even in SoD to begin with. In regards to GDKPs, I’ve never done one and in fact think it’s a dumb method of loot distribution. My shaman had 23 silver to her name going into phase 3, and now at 50 has about 135 gold purely from questing
I’d say you probably know more about gold buying than I do, but that would imply you know anything in the first place about the things you talk about
X FOR DOUBt
That’s ok, denial is the first step toward acceptance. I know you want to believe you know what you’re talking about, but you’ll feel much better about yourself if you just admit you don’t and move on with life
gdkps are not returning because they are filled with cheaters. move on from sod if you need gdkp.
God, it’s never not funny.

You must’ve missed the part where I said I hate GDKPs. I’m just not dumb enough to think banning them helps the RMT problem in the slightest
If you think it does, then why are you not lobbying for the removal of the auction house as well? It’s arguably even more poisoned by RMT than GDKPs ever were

great. we disagree. the lead developer and blizzard security team agrees with me. the GDKP forum trolls agree with you. take it for what you will.
I’ve given up trying to argue facts or reason on the forums but it’s entertaining to read the stuff people make up in their own heads to try and argue as fact.
Keep fighting the good fight, doubtful things will change though.
You’re not a smart human.
Except, they don’t, because as Horace pointed out the primary reason they said they were banning GDKPs is because they “eroded traditional guild and social structures”. RMT was only ever a secondary reason for banning them (which as has been shown in this topic and ingame it did jack all) yet you have it in your head that it is the main and most important one

Incorrect. People who ran gdkp didn’t need the items and wanted the gold to sell back to the gold sellers.
You’re absolutely correct. I just couldn’t wait to make my $3/hr.
