Since GFY is now being used to sell Warcraft accounts, read this before buying - GoFuckYourself.com

if you buy a World Of Warcraft account from anyone, you are waiting not only to lose your $300 bucks (or whatever you pay) but you will lose the account as well. There are hundreds/thousands of stories on the internet of people being sold WOW accounts and having Blizzard term the account because they catch on to what is going on, and fairly easy with the software they run to catch things like this.

The terms clearly warn against this and most players know this to be fact, selling wow accounts is a scam people, geez.

I know plenty of people who have sold and bought accounts with no problems.

Why do you care what people do with their money? Are you the GFY Fairy Godfather now?

Stupid... I guess the pussies don't want to earn their own account status.... more money than brains I guess.

polish_aristocrat · 05-19-2009, 07:16 AM

I never played world of warcraft so I can relate to those who are buying accounts as much as to farmers in Africa.

No, those people spending an average of 8 hours per day for 3 years playing WOW and getting a $300 return on it are nuts.

Marcus Aurelius · 05-19-2009, 08:46 AM

I sold my old warcraft account for $800 a few years ago. I decided to get back in the game about a year later and I was looking for an account, found my same account and got it back for $150.

You think that's bad... There's an older mmorpg called Asheron's Call. Well there was some armor called nexus shadow armor I believe. There was only one set on each server, this dude sold his on ebay for 15k. Later on someone figured out how to dupe it, sold multiple copies of it on ebay and then they were later deleted for being dupes...

Selling gold is different. They have ways of tracking it because no matter how it's done you're moving mass quantities of gold in game. The sellers can try to hide it all they want but it's still all done in game. There's no way for them to track buying and selling accounts unless the buyer or seller is an idiot. And of course blizzard doesn't support it, hardly any game companies do that have mmorpgs.
