Well, gratz to him now. The character will be banned/deleted because they wrote it here.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've heard tales of peeps selling their accts, then later claiming to Bliz that the accts were stolen, resulting in Bliz restoring them to their original owners. If so, what a windfall for the original owner--a new Rolex! ;-) Of course, this Curse publicity might make such a claim silly.

wow. thats a lot of money XD.

But anyways, whats the point in buying characters? Half the fun is getting the gear yourself. Sure i dont have more than kara/heroic gear, but part of that is i pass on a lot of items that people need more than i do. I agree with Trayventhor though, how is it worth that much money? Your not accomplishing anything.

that guy most have ALOT of money to spend, i mean he could prolly buy a shitty geared lvl 70 rogue, and throw half the 7k euro after any top notch guild in this game, and they would prolly give gim all the gear that rogue have, even the legendaries to :D

and if hes really lucky, some blizzard fagot read this news and hes banned with in a week cause who ever made this news was clever enough to tell where he moved the char and what hes name is

Old news, this was all over the official forums 2 weeks ago. If its not banned there is a serious flaw in blizzards work.

Oh and he spec'd it hemo and lost to a average non-pvp geared restro druid to my understanding. Immense eh?

I am wondering what does actually happen such characters that are banned. I know someone personally that got caught selling his gold and was banned. However I still see all his characters listed in my friends list and all of them still listed in the Armory. I assume that once the characters are banned they are deleted and thusly they would disappear off the friends list and armory.

To be honest, don't care if people sell their account, yes it against the rules, but if they are doing me no harm, who really cares.

What is silly is that he spend that large amount of money on a game character, because he does not have the patient and skill to do it himself.

I'm sure his guild was very very happy.

"Hey guys thanks for all that time and effort and those two legendary weapons off Illidan. I'm going to /gquit now so that I can sell my account for real money.

PS. Once I re-roll can you guys help me level?"
