Actually no, since Blizzard limits the abilitiy of gold sellers to use trial accounts by forbidding trial accounts to whisper/invite people to groups.

Blizzard also has in-game GMs and is actually suing one gold-selling company (although I don't think there has been any progress in several months...)

QFT. HOWEVER, since you can turn off chat and ignore it, it's not worth paying for. Saying it is worth it is like saying games today are more challenging and fun than older games.

More money = More money in budget for game = Everything gets improved.... Makes me sad that we receive such crappy support... waiting weeks for responses from support.

roffles.

any career that makes 10k+ per month leaves you no time to play games. If you're day trading, you're not playing. If you're running a business, you're not playing. If you're working 80 hours a week, you're not playing. Try again.

I got programmed whispers and saw bots when I played in 2006. I saw none when I played in 2007.

That was on a high-population server, to boot.

When was the last time you played?

PWNED!

WTS - Reading Comprehension!

i was speaking in relation to the original post, if you have more than half a brain you could figure that out. The OP referred to bots in Balthazar ID1, not bots in Ascalon or anywhere else. People began complaining about why nothing is done about bots specifically in Balthazar ID1, and so i responded to that. As to further replies about bots in Ascalon, and other places, i have yet to reply to that.

WTS- Deductive Reasoning Skills!

Now back on track, does anyone have any bright ideas on how to stop these goldsites from using trial accounts to spam in Balthazar ID1?

None? I see one every time I'm in Orgrimmar, every single time. Either a lvl 1 orc or troll, but they're there.

Off-topic: Damn, the OP's UI would be so confusing for me!

On-topic: As long as they're all in one place rather than in the usual spots, I'm okay with it, but yeah, Anet should really drop the B-Bomb on them.

I believe the salary of NCSoft/ArenaNet support team members costs a little more than that...

The issue, ladies, is not whether Arenanet profits on the bans. The issue is that players who advertize/utilize/profit from gold sales need to be banned.

Far more complicated than that. I'm on a PvE server so you'd need to agree to PvP to be killed. Even then, I don't think I can kill someone from my own territory.

Shut up!

Ultima Online has a 15 dollar fee, and look at the site what they have patched in a YEAR! Less then GW adds and fixes in a month!
