    So... 24 hour suspension for selling a M+8 key boost for gold

    So is selling in game boosts for gold a breach of TOS? Last night I sold a M8 key in Spires boost in trade chat, for gold i might add. But it would seem someone in /2 wasn't happy with this and I was reported, next thing i know, i recieve a lovely email from Bliizard saying my account is suspended for seeling boosting services and regardless of payment currency this is a breach of TOS.

    My understanding was, selling in game services for in game currency was perfectly valid. Oh well, i have learned my lesson because I also missed out on my first attempt on CN HM tonight as the suspension lifts at 2300 hrs .

    So a cautionary tale to others, you have been warned.

    i report people all the time for selling raid, dungeon and pvp wins in LFG tool. It is against the terms of service to sell them in LFG. Trade chat i just report them for spam.

    I see this as good news. Hopefully I won't be seeing all of LFG being just boosters.

    It is your fault, OP and you have to be very naive to think that you will find a lot of people to support you here.

    Good, I'm glad that Blizzard is finally doing something about this. The amount of spam in trade and the lfg tool is out of control

    Good.Its against the TOS to spam in LFG and even to clog trade chat up with that rubbish.It is one of the reasons the damn economy is so screwed up since they introduced M+. Good to know that reporting does actually help.

    I wonder if the same applies if I offer to pay for M+ runs, given no other practical way to get into them?

    Challenge Mode : Play WoW like my disability has me play:
    You will need two people, Brian MUST use the mouse for movement/looking and John MUST use the keyboard for casting, attacking, healing etc.
    Briand and John share the same goal, same intentions - but they can't talk to each other, however they can react to each other's in game activities.
    Now see how far Brian and John get in WoW.

    Maybe it wasn't for selling but for spaming?

    Well I have learned my lesson to say the lesson, also had a very angry Guild Leader shouting at me on discord becuase they were short 1 geared healer for our HM run tonight and will have to pug a healer . I hold my hands up, got greedy and suffered for it (rightly so).

    If you are horde on Dreanor I can help you with low keys free of cost . Sadly a lot of players on LFG M+ are douchecakes who just stack their fav classes and only look at ilevel as a benchmark of player competence, I mean up until M5 its easy, well mabye not theater of pain, but the others are doable easy peasy . If you are struggling and you have key why not make your own group .

    Poor phrasing on my part, English is not my first language, could have been worded better.

    You missed the word 'practical' I see.... sitting there for 4 hours watching your 1dps lf h/t/2d listen isn't fun nor is it practical.

    Nice finally. Boosting / selling services for gold has been such a massive mmo feel killer imo. The spamming in /2 is unbearable. It's so bad it did spread to Classic as well.
    "Nice gear, how much did it cost?"
    "Nice mount, how much did it cost?"
    "Nice Ahead of the Gold achievement. How much did it cost?"

    Never had such experience when pugging. I'm sorry you had to.
