I think we should give them a chance to clarify as it can be a difficult undertaking with many caveats
Yep wow coming to an X box series X soon.
It’s literally what they posted though. You have to be doing both…
Seems to be the only interpretation for it.
And wouldn’t it be such a shame if you knew someone on their realm who’d trade you gold for gold on your realm.
That’s up for debate whether they literally meant both.
I get that. But i do think when announcing something this large, it isn’t too much to ask for more then two sentences of interaction over the whole day, from a community manager.
I don’t think we’re being let down yet, it takes time to react.
So you’re saying i can run an escrow bank for boosting aslong as i dont advertise ingame? I dont think so.
There’s nothing against trading gold on one server for gold on another as far as I am aware.
Well if someone think that boosting is going away then they are just drinking too much cool aid
As far as you are aware… and there lies the problem my friend. Because the entire gold swapping market, much like the boosting market, is unsure,… and worried.
Ah yes what would we do without politics and thunderfury spam for trade chat … it’s good that you guys are fine with the top end community leaving though.
I personally will just be reporting anyone I see organising boosts and let Blizzard figure out if they want them banned or not. Boosts in PvP are gross and make the rewards meaningless…
An example:
This is a player who wants to invalidate all effort put in by actually skilled PvP players. This undervalues the prestige of being an Elite PvPer as well. Purely because “Is pretty, me want, me no skill tho”. This is why I’ll be reporting every single Booster in chat that I see, ill let Blizzard sort out the details.
Maybe for you. I try not to speak for other players though
You are free to do as you choose though I hope you yourself don’t get actioned for knowingly falsely reporting someone.
False petitions are not just an unproductive use of your friend’s time, but of our Game Masters’ as well. Each report given to us is fully investigated, and if we find a player has a pattern of this behavior, they may have their account noted or receive a warning. In ongoing cases, account suspension or even permanent closure could occur.
No, you just seem to not understand that you wearing the same gear as a skilled PvP warrior because you paid for it not only devalues the skill of those other warriors but you also displace legitimate rankings on the ladder. This may not matter to you, I personally don’t care what matters to you though honestly
I won’t be knowingly false reporting anyone, simply boosters. I have no way to tell if that booster is part of a community or not so I will allow Blizzard to do the leg work (that they are paid for) and report en masse if needed. Also if I do get banned… it’s not exactly a great loss for me is it.
This is your opinion
Neither I to you
Boosting is still permitted, you say you’ll report all boosters therefore you will be knowingly falsely reporting people.
If they say their guild is doing the carry in the ad then you have no reason to report them.
How would I know what is or isn’t a great loss for you, I can’t speak for other players
If it leads to blizzard dropping the absurd costs of first few weeks mythic raiding I’ll be happy but I don’t see that happening. The reason for the prevalence of boosting is the costs of playing the game in terms of both base legos and consumables as well as boes.
This is a fact. If you are wearing the same armour (that is supposed to be gained with skill) as Blizzo, it projects that you have the same skill as Blizzo (or at least on par). This means if anyone saw you play they could equate your skill level to Blizzo’s and assume he sucks too just because “If THAT warrior can get the elite set, it must not be that elite”.
So you expect me to believe any random booster on this game? Are you ok? People lie on the internet, sorry if that shocks you. Ultimately if the people I report for boosting are not a part of a community of boosters, they have nothing to fear right?
No it’s an opinion
This is a problem with assumptions.
No I expect you to use your best judgement and not report indiscriminately
Correct, only people breaking the rules, including yourself, have anything to fear.
I’m using my best judgement to help Blizzard find the community boosters. Do you think an employee wouldn’t investigate the report?
I’m not breaking any rules by bringing possible community boosters to Blizzard attention. Do you expect players to do a full bellular style investigation before reporting? When do I start getting paid for this then?
Edit: I will believe that I would be false reporting if there was literally any way for me to tell if a booster is a member of a community or not. If there is no way to tell this than any and all reports against boosters are false reports. You make no sense.
