Hey guys.

What happened with the gold prices?
I've talked to alot of thrustworthy gold-sellers and everyone is saying the prices almost halved the last 3-4 days.
Now all I get is offers for 0.5$ per 10k gold.
I feel really terrible if I have to sell at this price. :/

Hardly profitable these days. Anyone have tips/insight about this matter?
 
Then don't sell at that price...Just bank it until the price goes back up and sell then.
 
Probably because keeping large amounts of gold is dangerous now since blizz bans whole guilds :P

1 person reports that they had their guild banks removed and now everyone assumes it will happen to them...

That's not how this works. It's very plain to see that what happened to them is an extreme case.

You can either sell at crap prices and live with it or hold out and make more money...Coming to these forums asking why the price is low isn't going to make the prices go up.

Well, there are lots of factors that makes holding botted gold on character for a longer time risky now (as before).
We can all conspire about what reasons cause people to getting caught and banned, but I don't want to make another speculative thread about that issue.

Just asking what people are thinking now with the low gold prices. Nothing more, nothing less.
Are you holding the gold, or are you selling the gold?

There's no need for your ignorant negativity, really.

ignorant negativity? Please point out the ignorance in my statement.

If you're so worried about your gbanks being removed, have a friend open a b.net account with several wow accounts, and then have his characters be the GM's for all the gbanks. Give your friend money for the accounts and just let them sit there.

Plenty of people have had their guild bank removed. Actually, most people who had a "botting" guild did, in the past banwaves.


If you have 1 bot and it is on a guild with other human players, it is extremely unlikely to get that guild actioned. But, we are talking about profit botting here right? Not casual botting.


And the latest ban reports (there are more than one in the ban section, and allow me to assure you, there are plenty more who simply won't fill ban reports anymore) point to a clear change in botting-punishment patterns.

So, what was usually done in the past, might not be relevant anymore. Banning innocent people who were as "standers" in guilds? that's extreme. But it could be their new thing. Let's see.
 
Yeah noticed that too. Idk what to do really. Stock up and get my guild erased? Not cool.
 
Gold buyers are trying to buy as much gold as they can before the prices go up(chinese esp). Don't sell anything now.
Patch 7.1.5 will probably raise the gold price to a defined line and it won't go bellow it. Possible implementation of Bnet balance is the main reason. Just lay low for a while, and see what happens with 7.1.5.

Yeah. My thoughts aswell. When does the patch hit live?

Here's the problem though...

Blizz is going to ***** down in 7.1.5 on farmers and especially hard on gold sellers. They'll either decide that the system just won't work, like they did with the Diablo AH, or they'll kill off anything botting related.

With the money that Blizz is pumping into a team to actually catch bots now, I'm gonna go with the latter.
 
I am only selling for demand only atm. Cheeky buggers dropping the price to that.

Will start selling privately if this is kept up for a week.

Why not just sell privately anyways? You're always going to make a lot more selling this way.

Plenty of people? I'd love for you to show me even 1 more than the person that started a thread about it yesterday that reported having their guilds disbanded with the last banwave...I'm willing to bet you can't find a single one. And you want to know why? Because there most likely was no investigation that went into the accounts that were banned during the banwave. The whole detection to ban process is most likely automated at this point and requires no interaction from a human being, other than them hitting the button to ban everyone.

I'm sure guilds are getting disbanded more than people realize on here, but those are for large gold sellers and serial botters. Your average botter is never going to have a guild bank removed, especially if you have more than just your characters in there. That may change in the future, but that is not how blizz is handling bans right now.
 
gold prices suck right now

struggling to get higher than 0.07$/1k on a popular server

Your latest sentence has a serious issue; blizz is handling bans now differently to how they did in the past. Starting with 2nd? banwave, people were stripped of all the gold in their botting accounts. And if their chars were in botting guilds, all gold was removed and entire guilds were deleted.

After loggin in when the suspensions ended, those chars were guildless.

So, there's no evidence as to how Blizz is handling bans now. We'll find in 6 months or 18 months. What is known, is that their approach is changing.

About the "plenty of people"... Yep, sir, plenty. I did, and I did not create that thread. Loads of people here did. And the information is here in these forums, not only ( but also there!) in the ban reports, but also in threads created upon account retrieval of past banwaves.

I have spent (as many others) days, probably weeks, reading thread after thread upon years. I can recall that information; you apparently don't, and you estimate that the information is not real. Well, you are wrong.

Trying to find those threads is your duty if you intend to be well versed on the matter; please don't ask someone else to do that for you.


Edited to add: you spoke of an average botter. May I know what is that?May I guess you are referring to casual botters? Average for me could be 15 on the last 3 years. 200 for others. 1 for you. It's hard to create an average on that, only Bossland could.
