    Duality piloting KLG to 7/7 mythic

    So its pretty well known at this point that Duality (US#5) is the guild who played the accounts of the guild KLG for a 7/7 mythic boost for real life money.

    Whats your opinion on this? Should Blizzard take action and reset their achievs and/or hand out bans to the piloters?

    Few threads have been maxed out or locked on the official forums.

    I know they have banned some pretty well known pvpers recently (reckful, sodah) for account sharing

    I would care, but it's World #86. Does anybody really? People buy boosts all the time. It didn't affect the race so it's just one example of many instances of ToS breaking having a minor effect on the whole. That being said, they should do whatever the rules mandate, though I hope they do nothing since I think the rule about account sharing is stupid.

    Yeah... That's just pathetic. Hopefully blizzard won't go soft on them.

    Too bad this is not the off-topic forums.

    this is getting blown out of proportion to the point of idiocy. they paid for a boost -- something that happened frequently in Siege -- and people are blowing up. they didn't rank in the world, and this is a complete non issue.

    Killars has been streaming account sharing CM pilots for the past month blocking out the name of the toon.

    If you watch the stream there have been multiple times where they reference account sharing and if you pm killars asking for details they say they play the account

    twitch. tv/killars

    If blizzard is going to ban Reckful and sodah for not even streaming arena pilots, they should perma ban killars for doing it

    You think US 15 is not a meaningful rank? Also they snatched the realm first from a guild that has been working on the fight for quite a while, so yeah, it is an issue.

    It shouldn't be the people piloting who get banned. It should be the people who gave their account to someone to get piloted (in this case: KLG). You can't really prove that any single person piloted one's account because you can't assign an IP to any one person (assuming they'd be looking at IP addresses).
    KLG would get banned for account sharing, and if, IF, they can prove any said person piloted the accounts, they would be banned for trading in-game goods/services for real life money.

    And elsewhere there are bigger problems than in France, so you can't talk about that either. Your logic is ridiculous.

    Pretty much this, more or less. It's easy to show that a guild was piloted (all 25 players on different locations/IP addresses) but hard to show who exactly did the piloting. Also it's hard to show individual players were piloted for the above reason, but probably easier to show when it happens with an entire guild.

    Nothing wrong with paying cash. that's not Againts TOS. the only TOS rule that was broken was for account sharing. So KLG should be given like a 1 week ban or some shit

    It should be both people who are banned. Like reckful was banned for playing other peoples accounts. I'm actually surprised it was Duality though. You would think they would be smarter than that. When blackrock gets here and there is a mount off end boss they can sell carries for $300-$400 a pop per mount 2x drops per week for the entirety of farm and make easy money Like most top guilds do that is alot harder for blizz to track than playing other peoples accounts for a quick $2,000 which seems way too risky for what little they gained out of it.

    Like its well known that in addition to selling shit for gold you can buy mounts for cash from most top guilds. Just as long as the whole deal is made outside the game and no paper trail blizz can't touch anyone. But when you take it into game by piloting your risking your account for 1 payday It better be a good payday not $100 a raider like i'm hearing they were paid. Unless they all were smart enough to run a VPN. Because anyone caught in this is probably going to go down hard.

    Yea that would make sense, but not after the whole Reckful and Sodah fiasco. They played viewers account for fun and got their main accounts banned.

    If blizzard doesn't ban the guild that piloted then it would make them look really stupid.
