Buying gold is it illegal or not.

Q u o t e:
It's like me coming to your tree house and breaking one of your rules. The only thing you can do is tell me to leave.

As long as you throw in a legal binding contract with that scenario that you happen to sign before entering said tree house, sure.. it’s exactly the same. :0P




Lardo, as you may be able to tell from all the previous posts, it is against our rules to do such a thing. As such, I would strongly recommend against it.

As we can see in section Eight of the Terms of Use, titled “Ownership/Selling of the Account or Virtual Items”

Q u o t e:
Blizzard does not recognize the transfer of Accounts. You may not purchase, sell, gift or trade any Account, or offer to purchase, sell, gift or trade any Account, and any such attempt shall be null and void. Blizzard owns, has licensed, or otherwise has rights to all of the content that appears in the Program. You agree that you have no right or title in or to any such content, including the virtual goods or currency appearing or originating in the Game, or any other attributes associated with the Account or stored on the Service. Blizzard does not recognize any virtual property transfers executed outside of the Game or the purported sale, gift or trade in the "real world" of anything related to the Game. Accordingly, you may not sell items for "real" money or otherwise exchange items for value outside of the Game.

As long as you have not broken any policy, Lardo, you should have nothing to worry about. :0)

Q u o t e:
>< sorry I forgot about that!

Not a huge problem, Merdrah. I understood that you were posting it to make a point, and not to advertise. That is why I edited it to make sure it still made sense, instead of simply replacing it with "[Removed]". :0D

Q u o t e:
I still don't support gold farmers for all the people thinking I'm defending it in some way.

I was just giving you a hard time, Salsa. That is why I said it sticking my tongue out at you. :0D

I'm sure there was a lot of thought that went into the creation of that thread. I do not believe it was an oversight, but on the same token I don't think it should be advertised here on the Customer Service forum.
