You cant use gargul? If they catch you they ban you? How do they plan on stopping it. I think GDKP is a good thing. A good way to make gold, help lower geared players catchup, win your gear with the gold you earn and not with a lucky roll or loot council favortism which is pretty toxic. Once a character has all they need from a raid there’s really no reason to run it anymore because you dont progress or get anything out of it. Making it more difficult to fill the raid and clear it. Please allow GDKP in the anniversary realms. Not all of us make our gold farming and competing against bots. Players should be able to choose with which loot system they want to raid with.

No! The majority of the players hate GDKP intensely. Blizz finally accepted this fact and took steps to stop GDKP. GDKP destroys fantasy, immersion and makes the game pay to win. Just say no to GDKPs.

Don’t the kids have a saying these days? Something about messing around and finding out?
Let me know how it goes!

If it was intended for you to buy raid loot, they would be bind on equip and listable on the AH.
The pro-GDKP crowd (aka RMT enjoyers) just keeps repeating the same tired arguments. GDKP became a thing in WOTLK. Vanilla and TBC happened without GDKP. It is not needed at all.
What use does a BiS character have for gold besides selling it on RMT websites, hmm?

Some people enjoy making gold. And you have to have a way to pay your consumes and mats for enchants etc… you still need gold at 60. And once you have a lot you can use that gold to gear an alt

Sure, if you’re fine with playing a major role in RMT laundering.
Lower geared players typically don’t have the moeny for big GDKPs if they’re fully legit, unless you think that it’s normal for naked fresh 60s to have thousands of gold to spend.
It’s always sad to me how GDKP fans have made WoW so transactional that the idea that people may genuinely collaborate together is alien, and must be monetized.
Maybe I like running with my guild, maybe I want a chance at a legendary or off-spec drop. I can always always roll an alt if I’m really done done with raiding for a tier.
If you run GDKP, bots aren’t your competition, they’re your lifeblood and source of income.
Also, if you’re a full BiS character on era with your epic mount and a large gold stockpile, why do you need more gold? Things aren’t going to progress further, and the only real expenses are respeccing and consumables.

Don’t play SoD, but I have heard there’s a thriving underground GDKP scene there, coordinated on Discord.
Im all for the GDKP ban but I do have to ask. How are they monitoring it? Cause people use gargul for regular SRs and LC raids too.
You can make gold in WoW without GDKP.
You don’t actually need to have every single consumable and every single enchant to be successful in this version of the game. If you’re under the assumption that you do and this is what is driving you to require GDKP, you might want to consider changing that assumption. If your guild is driving this requirement, you might consider changing your guild. Alternatively, there are many ways to make gold and/or farm consumables for the activities you want to participate in.
If you find you’re unable to do so, consider advocating that Blizzard address the scarcity issues they’ve created with mega servers. You can also look into playing on one of the less populated servers where you might actually find out that you enjoy playing the game instead of paying to skip it
A large part of this game revolves around progressing your character’s power. By buying that progression, you’re missing out on a lot of gameplay that you might otherwise enjoy. You’re always welcome to play an alt, you just not intended to pay for that.

there is, they just dont advertise it.
The same thing might happen in fresh
I don’t think the black lotus changes are in the game.
Get ready for 200g flasks.
I’m sure no one will rmt.
I’m sure the people already selling gold in trade and LFG aren’t getting any sales.

And the anti-GDKP crowd keeps spouting the same tauren 
rhetoric about how it’s all RMTers that GDKP. As someone who has never and will never RMT I can tell you this is false. I assume I’m not the only person like me.
People against GDKP probably haven’t seen it in action on Era. In versions of the game where the WoW token exists GDKP is literal pay to win. Without the WoW token and with Blizzard actually doing something against bots and RMT, GDKP becomes the best loot system.

It’s not like I haven’t done GDKPs. I’ve been in the discords too. I know how prevalent the gold buying is, same as you. Every single GDKP discord ranges from indifferent to outright endorsing gold buying.
Then those same people will come to the forums and pretend all the gold buying talk in the GDKP discords doesn’t happen. You’re not fooling anyone.
Show me a real GDKP discord that actually doesn’t allow gold buyers. It doesn’t exist, and you know it doesn’t exist.

I doubt that most people care, nevermind spend the energy required to hate intensely.

If you like a ruined economy and rampant RMT. Sure.
lol right, you buy it from the bots and then ruin the game for everyone else.
You can. You can even do GDKP if you want to. In fact I encourage you to go ahead and do it.
F around and find out =)

I don’t. Because I don’t. I don’t talk about gold buying with anyone unless I’m expressing my general disgust with gold buyers. So no, nobody talks to me about how they buy gold. I don’t know how prevalent it is because that’s Blizzard’s problem to solve, not mine.
Not sure what shady discords you’re going on. 
I leave a discord if there’s anything I see in it supporting gold buying.
My guild’s discord will ban anyone who promotes RMT. I don’t know the rules of every discord but I imagine many have similar rules.
you’ll jsut have to get a real job to finance yourself irl.
