Syas Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 So when I go on the GTN and see low priced items I'm not allowed to buy those items and sell them at the normal price? Why is that a bannable offense? It isn't, that's why you haven't been banned and are just lying to get people riled up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is that a bannable offense? Yes it can be and has been in other games as well. WoW included. Get over yourself already.

I posted a link to a message giving a warning for the offense I was banned for. Not my message I recieved because I don't feel like making an account on some image sharing website and uploading it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care that it's bannable in WoW too. Why is that a bannable offense? I've played tons of MMOs and never once been banned for buying underpriced items and selling them at normal price to make money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF you're constantly hoarding certain items you find on the AH to inflate prices you can, and should be banned. I am totally for perma banning you.

How is that manipulating the game? If people sell items to low then other players will undercut them and continue to undercut until it's more profitable to vendor gear.

Fireline Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 So this is why the GTN UI is so crap, to discourage ppl using it. Kudos to you sir, you managed to break a mental blockade that i have agaisnt using that POS auction house, and that is actually breaking the rules. Funny thing is, I love playing the AH in every game I play, and cba with this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You got warned/banned for a valid reason. You don't like it head to a game that will let you. Let me know when you find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame seeing as how expensive training and speeder bike training is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was not a bannable offense in any other game I played, to my knowledge. Now, if that is what the OP was actually doing... who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing wrong with that. The market typically takes care of itself, and that's a fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronophobe Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 If this is for real I can see a ton of people unsubbing; myself included. This is supposed to be an mmo and playing the market is one aspect that many people enjoy. Finding a sweet, low-priced item to make yourself some quick virtual currency which brings you closer to something you are saving for is part of the fun. I honestly hope this is BS.
