That was kind of a no-brainer to begin with though.
There are other sites out there that are made for that soft of transactions.
 
i just partied with Svina the other day on his rdm x.x
 
Not a gil farmer no :], be glad it's not a noob playing it either.
 
Gonna get flamed for this prolly but wtf. XD

First off, sad to see you leave and whatnot Svina, hope things get better for you. T.T;

But! isn't what he's doing the same as a gilseller? <_<; Selling what they did online to make money to live? lol I just kinda thought that all the people who harp on other people about buying/selling gil would be jumping all over this topic instead of wishing him luck on selling the account. O_o;

Just my thought. lol

Eh...its not so much that RL situation is in dire straits or anything. Think of it as it was kind of to make the change easier. I'm still the poor ex-college student I always was, but I manage :P

I spose it is, but gilfarmers can often interfere with the gameplay itself. Example. You wish to camp an NM for loot. Okay, no prob. You show up and a team of 50 gilfarmers are successfully MPK'ing and preventing anyone from camping that NM, forcing them to buy the item if they really want it. This is monopolizing gameplay and interfering with the player's enjoyment of the game. I've heard countless times "i'd go camp it, but its swamped with gilfarmers... damn those gilfarmers." . ..Unless I'm not aware of any situations in which someone said "I want to buy sniper rings, but the price is getting jacked beyond belief. Damn those Svinas!"... I don't remember ever making profit on the NQ sniper rings either =P.

In WoW goldfarmers break the standard rules for loot rolling in instances. They sneak into groups without the leaders realizing it then something valuable drops, everyone passes, goldfarmer rolls need, defaulting the loot to them. No one gets to see it henceforth. It interferes with player's enjoyment of the game. We can't communicate with the chinese farmers, yeah they do it for a living also, but they also have no idea what they're doing is interfering with the enjoyment of the game. They are their own element in-game and act as a seperate entity. I.e. "Is this dude a person or a gilfarmer?" ... as you can see there's two classes of player now, a "real" player, and a "gilfarmer".

Least thats how I look at it... but hell don't take my word for it. I'm pulling words out my ass =p
