Social Contract

Community General Discussion

So I have just read the social contract wording on Wowhead.

" * Spamming, advertising, or other disruptive behaviors

  • If you harm your fellow adventurers with any of the above behaviors, you are subject to punishment up to and including suspension of your account."

Advertising a piece of gear in Trade channel could get you banned. Will you be closing the trade channel?

What’s the motivation behind being intentionally obtuse with this crap? No, you’re not going to banned for trying to sell a piece of gear in trade. Christ.

Short answer:

Its too vague and any of those things can mean a multitude of things, based on an entertainment company’s notions of folkways and morays (cough, cough, not your own, cough).

That means that on any given day, you can wake up and be on opposite sides of the law of that dumbassery.

Heavy-handed, clumsy, and horribly written; a FFXIV-style commendation and rewards system would solve about 80% of their problems.

Fixing their in-game issues would be another 15%.

Hyperbole much?

If you link the gear and posting 5 times a sec, yeah that’s spam. We don’t need to see you force the chat pane to scroll like end credits of a movie fast forwarded.

Just don’t advertise every second and it won’t be considered spam. Be smart about it. Reaching a bit.

Yes you will be banned 100 percent for asking if anyone wants to buy your 233 blues for 2000g.

You gonna quit?

they’ve already been very clear that your account can be actioned if the community reports you, even if you’re not actually breaking any rules.

  • Hate speech, including negative comments that target another player’s identity, including aspects like race, gender, or ability
  • Harassment, threats, or abusive / derogatory language and behaviors

Most of the people complaining are just afraid of this part, honestly.
