anyone know anyone who got banned and had it reversed ?..just wondering how solid of a case they have against me or if i can potentially talk my way back.. either way it blows =\
You're pretty much screwed. There was a poster on here that sold gold regularly to IGE and he said that Blizzard always banned the character that made the final gold transfer.

If you're gonna sell gold make the final transfer of gold on an account that's expendable.

A little research woulda told you that 20 bucks isnt worth it. Most people buy an expendable account to do the final transfer, so you would need to sell more to make it worth your time and money.

Ahh yea... that would have been the smarter thing to do..

i had sold gold in the past 500 gold for 100 bucks (looooong time ago) with no penalty so i guess i just got lucky that time, or they've really taken tracking down these accounts to the next step...

i mean it seems like such a small amount of gold, 300 gold.. and my entire account is permantly closed... if i could pay blizzard 200 bucks for my account back i would..

i had the best possible gear pre-SSC (well other than the prince main hand) exalted in almost every tbc faction... pretty depressing to know there is no way to get it back

my friend got his account banned but for completely different reasons, something to do with a credit card mixup and eventually had it reopened.. so yea if anyone has any advice how to approach this (i could say i sent it to the wrong person, mistaking it for a friends account.. umm or tell them i am terminaly ill and this is my last outlet for fun? i dont know x.x)

No kidding, i was actually quite relieved at first having all this free time, but after trying lotro (gag) and now spending my online time torrenting old fps's / rpgs i quickly started wanting wow back...

i seriously doubt my pc could handle vanguard seeing as i could only run eq2 with the lowest possible settings and well then what else is there? guess i could go back to EQ.. anyway carry on the convo before i wrecked this thread

As Anea is in my guild I and I have been using that mod for oh .. six months I call bullshit on this.

Don't spread unsubstantiated rumours Digo, it just makes you look like a tool.

Yeah, Euro servers are gay like that. Do you get these same spam tells all the time as well? It's about once an hour here in the states.

Taking a quick hop over to US Mal'Ganis Horde (a fairly active server, afaik) you get ShineStar Network Co.,Ltd Buy & Sell WOW Gold, World of Warcraft Gold, Buy & Sell GW Gold, Guild Wars Gold, FFXI Gil, Final Fantasy XI Gil, Buy SWG Credit, Star Wars Galaxies Credit, Lineage 2 Adena, etc. -- 232 bucks for 1k. That site lists some servers as high as 270 bucks for 1k at least. Gotta wonder what kind of retard is running the show here.

Banning gold sellers....Check
Banning people selling to gold sellers.....Check

Now all they need to do is start banning the buyers and were good.

Seriously, fuck them. It's just plain fucking sad as shit you need anti-spam add-ons in a game because this crap has gotten so out of hand/annoying.

This mod is not an auto-extracting exe, it's a zip file. Inside the zip file are nothing but tga's, xml's, toc's, and lua. And txt. Unless the keylogger is implemented in lua the linked mod does not have a keylogger. Nice FUD though.

What the fuck would possess you to sell 20 bucks worth of gold and risk your account?

If I want a 5k epic flying mount, why would I spend 8 hours a day for 2 weeks farming gold when I could go to McDonald's, work a day shift, and make enough money to afford it right there?

To the banned guy I feel bad for ya, sorry man. I'd suggest re-rolling with a new box/credit card, and trying the other faction and a new class. That made WoW new to me a while back.

Somehow I find it easy to believe that when my entire guild gets a spammed ad within a few seconds it isn't coming from an account that can only send a few tells per minute.

Because McDonald's doesn't pay $62 per hour?

Do you think they'd let you take up an extra day?

How about being a man and accepting responsibility for your actions and quit whining about it? You did something you knew you could get banned for, got banned, and that's that.

If you just go around trying to lie your way back in, it shows you're even more of a pussy.
