Buying gold & Flagging

[pngwyn]

Just curious if it's a bad idea to buy gold to start off a botting character? It sucks not having big bags and at least some gold for gear. I usually purchase off IGXE who sells at minimum of 3KG, so I'm afraid it might raise some flags that an account with a level 10 has that much.

At the same time I can level tons faster with a full green set + blue weaps, I'm not sure. Does anyone else do this to get your accounts started?

You can easily get 100g by level 15 buy some basic bags..
*Gathering Professions lots of gold income

The idea is I want to level as fast as I can, not run around gathering stuff. I've been on a Q profile at level 19, and I've made less than 5g lol.

funny I had the same question and people answered my like "you can bot your gold mate"... And so I decided to try without buying gold and let me explain:

first my toon in level 55 now
The beginning was shitty but I created a alt to mail to and this one sold everything that was white/green : and like wool cloth, linen sold for 60g/mat and 15g/mat... SO before I knew it I had like 1500gold. Enough for bags, mount and everything. Because I'm levelling a pal I'm not to worried about not having the fast mount straight away the crusader aura adds quite nicely and anyway... I'm not playing when my bot is so don't care if it takes a bit more time. . I'll use GB when I'll reach level 80 and buy it then.

Good luck

Thanks for the advice. I'll give it a shot, though I have also heard that putting too much cloth/etc on the AH at once can also get you flagged. I'm sure a few stacks can't hurt though or they would get way too many false positives.

It's luck really, I don't have much experience buying gold but It's normally the seller that get's banned.
