Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

My character's name is Stingway and I just got banned for gold trafficking. Before you investigate I can already confirm that this is true. I bought a small amount of gold because I didn't feel like farming for my mount. I'm writing this just to let you guys know that getting banned for gold trafficking is a real thing, so think twice before you buy gold.

If somebody from the guild 'Nostalgic' is reading this then now know you can kick Stingway. This ban is permanent so he's not coming back. The guild was a ton of fun and they are in no way associated with my actions. I never spoke with anyone about gold buying and I still got found out.

I accept the ban as I broke the Terms of Use. I hope all of you have fun playing because I know I did

This is surprisingly refreshing, way to own up to your mistake pal, I hope you'll make a new account and level up and grind the gold legit this time, I'm sure you'll be reinvited to the guild.

Wow, someone being completely honest and owning up to their mistake in the Account Issues forum? Gotta screenshot this; it's likely to not happen again in a long time.

You sir, deserve a medal or something.

I thought there was a chance of getting a gold buying ban changed to a final warning if you agree to get all the bought gold removed. You may wish to ask the GMs about it.

There was, but so many people were buying gold then turning it in to get unbanned, Viper changed it so it was no longer possible.

It's no longer possible to retrieve an account after buying gold.

Oh, I see. That's interesting to know. RIP, then.

Also, it amuses me that this post is a sticky now lol. I, for one, support the un-banning of the OP. +1
