Good. Keep your sales in trade channels where it belongs, not in LFG. I've been reporting them for months now.
What use is a one day ban?
GOOD! I will continue to report every single one of them as advertising and every single one in trade/LFG as RMT spam. That's all it is. I don't understand how Blizzard doesn't see that these 'communities' are all gold farming enterprises. Check out their webpages...it's utter scum. It's absolutely pathetic that they're roping in good players to be their pawns at the sight of a fat cut. And who gets punished? The legit players earning a few g or being too thick to understand what they're getting into. I didn't mind that there were carries and paid spots in groups for elite guilds. It helps them cover costs of progression. But the total takeover of Trade and LFG for these RMT communities is ridiculous and needs to end. I will say I got a nice capped out mailbox recently as many of the bots I repeatedly reported finally had actions against them for botting.
Finally! Thank you, Blizz
If true then 1 day is not nearly enough.
I report these groups every single day, on several characters, but nothing happens. Maybe now it will?There are A TON of websites that make groups. Don't think i'm allowed to mention them here, so i won't.
You realize this is fake Blizz isn’t sending out formal ban notices with typos. Plus they don’t care about the “gold boost” because it keeps the sale of wow tokens afloat.
Hurray!
What would be nice is a "Carry Finder" tab in the group finder. You want to advertise "for gold" runs which are not in violation of the ToS, that's fine but it must go in that tab. If you post in the normal group finder tab or spam in general/trade chat then action is taken against your account. It gives the sellers and buyers a forum for their transactions which does not directly impact those who are not interested in the service. It would be nice to not have to scroll through 90% of the list to find non-paid runs.
For gold I also think is fine (some cases the amount is insane tho), but let's be frank here for a sec, majority of the ads on LFG was "blablabla visit mysite.xyz for more info".I agree of removing gold carries from LFG too, coz' you can't trade gold cross realm anyway, so go to trade channel.
