Gold buying rules

Summary

Blizzard restated that real money transactions are not acceptable and that it is acting against them in the Beta and at launch. It said it will increasingly act against accounts that buy gold, not only sellers, by removing the gold and possibly closing accounts. Players are asked to be careful with gifts and one-sided trades from strangers.

Highlights

• Illicit gold is removed from recipients
• Account closure is possible
• Recipients who knew or should have known the source may face action
