I found this interesting, on my own server we have this list of supposed gold farmers.

Apparently its considered acceptable since a community rep endorsed a similar thread on Stormrage in this thread

I find this fairly unsettling. Already on the Hellscream thread one person was taken off the list for being a suspected gold farmer, but that was only because the original poster was talked to in game about the person. Had that not happened, I wonder how much stock Blizzard takes in these threads and wrongly investigates the wrong people.

Bad enough Blizzard is investigating random people who have "too much gold" (what constitutes too much exactly...), but now they endorse community lynch mobs? I've already been accused of being a gold farmer in game because I'm just better at making money than most people, I wonder how soon I end up suspended for being an intelligent trader and knowing where to go to make cash easy.
