Guild Wars 2

So i’ve had some guildies point out the fact that they were approached by gold sellers through mail and when i told them they should report them for that they were uncertain under which reason to place them since gold selling is not listed.

Now for me gold selling is scamming but some players might not make the link between those two so i would like to have a reason implemented for gold selling. Even if it’s just adjusting scamming to saying “Scamming/Gold selling”

I know Anet takes gold selling serious from GW1 where Dhuum would come for your soul (sorry i just HAD to say that) during the mass ban waves for botting and/or gold selling.

But i think GW veterans also remember the gold sellers in towns, endlessly spamming and sometimes going so for as spamming you in private message.

BTW: you think Zhaitan or some big boss could come get these guys? That’d be awesome and show that you take this serious. Just like Dhuum.

And terribly sorry about posting this here but i couldn’t know a suitable spot, but it does seem a bit related to accounts being abused.

Gold selling should be reported as spam.

Yes, scamming is when the gold-seller is trying to trick you into giving you their money and not giving you what you paid for. Most gold sellers actually give you the in-game gold you buy. Thus, gold-sellers is supposed to be reported as spam.

Agreed that it is spamming, but I’ll admit to a bit on confusion on this myself. A dedicated category ("Report Gold-selling Dirtbag), or a direct option (a la W:AR), would be a welcome addition. Oh, how I miss those ban-hammer reports…

I reported a gold seller for using a bot (auto-typing) and got perm banned.
