Actually I think the only way this could work is if we could "unite" at least 80-90% of botting comunities to agree upon a set price, and at least 70-80% of major gold-selling websites (that actually get affected by AH, but in my belief also affects it as well) to agree upon a set % lower than AH value... That includes many, MANY chinese / korean / thai companies (read it well, COMPANIES, not individuals) cooperating, even though they ARE "enemies", and most of the "lone wolves" who do it in a semi-professional way (up to 100ish bots) to do it as well.... IMO that?s a HECK of a lot of work, to TRY and raise the price of gold to PERHAPS between .60 and 1$, whilst making it slower to sell, and with no garantee that it would actually work. To large companies, that means simply STOPPING their businesses from running smoothly, which is if not 100% not viable, at least somewhat impractical, for they?d be risking the very income on which their businesses depend on (and they do that for a living! their not occasional botters...).
So, to put it simply: IF there started a BIG movement towards this, IF companies agreed upon it all, IF most botting communities agreed as well, IF big lone wolves agreed too, I would be willing to give it a go too. But, IMO, thats one too many IF?s, and VERY BIG IF?s, as well... So I don?t think that?s actually going to happen. Ever.
