That character name in English means "assface" so very appropriate. And yes, it was a perfectly legal scam in retail as well. You won't fall for it twice, I presume.

Actually, any form of scamming wasn't "Legal" on retail. It was an offense you would get banned for. Sorry to burst your bubble.

http://us.blizzard.com/en-us/company/legal/wow_tou.html - Link to retail's legal Terms of Use.

http://puu.sh/gFSoX/3d457e46ec.png - Screenshot under Code of Conduct section stating that scamming and defrauding players out of gold and legitly obtained in-game items is not allowed.


I am pretty sure something as petty as a C.O.D scam would fall under "scamming or defrauding" a player by Blizzard's opinion. Does anyone actually research anything before they rattle off the first thing that pops into their brain?

so, nostalrius, are you blizzlike or are you not?
