Im not going to get into how and everything.
But DEVS if you're reading this.

GOLD is your Flaw.

Follow the GOLD!

125g = 20,000 AD for the normal everyday user who running the AH by hand and using gold to make AD.
125g = 1,250 AD for the AH BOTS!


You can make a RAD fraction system, for Quests and Loot from mobs.
As well as Vendors selling for RAD/AD instead of copper silver gold.

A Quest turn in, would reward say, 0.10 RAD. Mob loot, would be .003 or whatever.
You get what i'm saying. Keep the refine 24k a day and drop the gold, its the flaw.


OR you can make it very simple.
Don't allow GOLD to be traded between players.

Put some value back into this game before its too dead to revive.



P.S. Please don't post about this bot and that bot and how this bot is using the gateway or in game or bla bla bla ....... Im not here to make an Exploit thread. Im sure 1000 of you know a million ways, but like i said this isnt an exploit thread.

If you know of an exploit or an issue make your own thread and make them aware.

    Id love to see currency farmers, sellers AND buyers all purged from all games too

    But wouldnt removing gold trading completely destroy a lot of legit trade too?
    I must be the only person who hasnt yet figured our how to turn gold into diamonds anyway
    I got a stack of gold that is "useless" to me, and stacks of things to sell, but i dont sell them because everyone wants to give me gold, which i dont want, so i got stacks of gold and stacks of stuff i cant sell
    So how do people turn gold into diamonds?

    Buy keys or other items in /Trade for gold and sell them on AH.

    Alternatively buy a stack of the highest level healing potions and post them on the AH.

    I don't see how they would fix anything.

    The absolute easiest way is to use your gold to buy something that people will buy for AD, and sell that on the AH.

    That's what a lot of those people are doing who want to buy your whatevers for gold. But healing potions works.

    How exactly do you have stacks of things that you think you'd be able to sell but don't because... you're averse to putting them on the AH?

    Would fix nothing and potentially cause other issues at this point.

    Turning off /zone chat seems a better and easier solution, IMO. :o

    That's the whole purpose of currency ..to trade it.

    The only way to stop bots/farmers is for the players to stop buying from them.

    No, he is only disallowing gold trading, not keys trading etc.


    @OP, also you need to implement Mimic nodes that attack players to prevent rank 4 enchants mass farming

    After you toon has passed the need to buy kits what is gold used for? I understand it is needed for removing enchants (but I only do that about once a week).... but what else? I have so much gold now I am wondering if I am missing out on something? Is there a need for gold at all? Is there somewhere (a shop or something) that I could lets say drop 600g and get some good gear?

    Going to close this down as there is no productive discussion to be had here, only flames and trolling. Also, do keep racist and nationalistic commentary out of your posts.
