Viper replied to that thread (https://forum.nostalrius.org/viewtopic. ... 42#p134342)
saying the ban was confirmed

so he was banned for sending 3k gold to an alt, in the same account, and the ban was justified?

So is it illegal or not? It doesnt say so in the Terms of Use.

I would send money to my alt (in different acc) in such quantities to have a 2nd account in case my main one is hacked.. but now im scared.

You say the system auto bans you but them the GM can unban you? But Admin Viper said the ban was justified. I dont get this.

This. I'm pretty sure that dude didn't get that 3k the way he said he did.

If I was to guess, he bought maybe 2.5k, which didn't trigger the automatic sensor, then transferred that + what he already had to a new char, where it was triggered and investigated.

People lie all the time on the Support forum. Yeah, there's a chance this guy might be telling the truth, but given Support's awful track record with people successfully appealing their bans and Viper himself confirming the ban, I'm inclined to not believe that.

You should have been here in the first month following the server's opening; a ton of people were banned for hacking and nearly every one of them had the same excuse: "It wasn't me who hacked, my brother hopped on my account and hacked." You learn to take these sob stories with a grain of salt after a while. Viper said they're getting better at cracking down on gold sellers/buyers, so expect a lot more of these in the upcoming months.

I watched that one closely.

What struck me as odd is that he had 3k gold to send. That's a LOT of gold. He says he's had it on his account for a long time, selling herbs/drops/materials, but that just sounds fishy.

I wouldn't worry about sending gold to your alts, on the same account or on others. If someone did truly get banned unjustly for it and it wasn't reversed, I think you'd see major forum drama, posting all over general, making extra accounts to keep posting, etc. But people who know they are guilty tend to give up easily.

No it's not. There are twinks in the game and it was allowed on retail WoW so it should be here too.

While leveling I sent all the stuff to my auction house alt and when I reached 60 I sent the money earned back to my main and it was around 1400g. I assume a level 60 could easily get 3k in a few weeks

What were your professions? I've NEVER seen that much from levelling. Not even if you don't buy any spells at all.

I've got 3 level 60s, and I can't drum up that much gold. I could NOW get 3k within a few weeks, but that would be since all three are alchemists with xmutes and one is a rogue that I can mine Silithus mines with.
