    First Of

    Who are you to "Harass" Someone Else for trying, think of idea for a game You had no Part in making and or no governing council over, and for those of you that said, No. "because you don't want "Rich Spoiled Snob's" to get an Edge over you DO YOU HEAR YOURSELF?... MY GOD MAN, You sound Like a Child, talking about a board Game!... You feel no Shame at all for the level of Maturity lacking in your demeanor?

    Most of these people Zenimax are not talking about the Games Legitimacy or fundamental principles, Their saying that, Since they choose to sit at home all day everyday, and have no real since of moral Judgement AT ALL Just a Overstimulated imagination and a understimulated mental capacity for "Logical" Compare and contrasting, In Regards to the "Fruit Loop" that referenced and some how wanted people to Take him Seriously when he "contrasted a Man murdering another, with ESO considering the application selling in game currency" and "Deemed them Equal in relevance...

    I have never in my life seen, the kind of Pathetic opinionated childish banter that I'm reading here. this is "not just you all that Play Every single day 4 to 8 hours a day...

    All I hear are Grown men Cry and Screaming "Its not Fair"
    Actually most of us just said no, a few went over the top, but if you look closely a few gave good reasons, I myself pointed out that it would cause massive inflation.

    This means that after a short time you have to buy gold to pay for small things such as repairs, since you can't earn the money fast enough to pay for the damage as it happens.

    Now read your own post, because you show just as much opinionated banter as those you are decrying. Also a little tip for the future, short and sweet makes better posts, if you post a wall of text it tends not to be read.
    People believe what they either want to be true or what they are afraid is true!

    If you add in an option to purchase gold legitimately, the prices on the items that are finally going down in price will skyrocket. Not only is this not the ideal solution to stopping Gold Sellers, it also ruins the economy.

    These kids who are in favor of buying gold don't care about how it will affect everyone else. They will be able to afford it because they are willing to spend their disposable income on a video game. They could care less if anyone else can afford it. They could care less about how it will affect the price of items that aren't being purchased with real life money. They don't care about legitimately earning things. To them, they think they've earned it by working a job completely unrelated to the game world itself.

    Yet, then they want to come on here and cast judgment and accuse everyone else of thinking only of themselves.

    The double standards are flying high in this thread.

    Do you really think gold sellers will just leave if Zeni start selling in game gold? All they would do is reduce the cost of gold sellers so people would still be able to buy it externally from them cheaper then Zeni would sell it for. This idea would not change anything.

    How can you, tell a company What they should sell and for how much?... You could have paid for the "imperial edition" You chose not to put out for it, and everything was well known when you made your choice... so my God man, Stop Crying about. what Zenimax/Bethesda charges for their Products and felling you deserve a hand out, because other people get a Damn Horse, and maps... we still have to pay 15.99 a month like you but we paid more, for our game, I should not have to "hold your hand" threw the understanding process of Buying something you want to tell how to make their product?.. go work for them for 10 years Apply for C.E.O and then you will see how pointless, you sound... Plain and simple you were Cheap, you get what you pay for.... you paid for less, so you are going to get less...

    Are you in the wrong thread?

    No one is crying about not having a horse here...In fact, I worked hard to save up 42k so that I could buy the best horse in the game. Let me tell you that it feels great having earned my horse through hard work, and careful saving of funds. I'm broke now in-game, and couldn't be happier about it.

    Had I simply bought a horse for $15 with out-of-game money (and I easily could have), it would've completely cheapened that experience. Instead, I appreciate that horse so, so much more now.

    I'm seriously confused what you are arguing, or even what side of the argument you are on.

    What???
    Not sure what that has to do with this thread.
    I have no problem with getting less, but have a huge problem with in game inflation.

    A better solution is a chat filter program. Normal people never use the terms "gold" "selling" "USD/EUR" and website names in the same sentence, so when the program detects things like that being said it filters and kicks the player. Seriously whens the last time you said anything remotely close to what the spammers say, there is no way innocent people will get caught in this.

    Are these real statements or did you just input some stuff into a random automated argument generator you found from a Google search?

    I am serious because I have no idea what stance you are taking or if you're just simply trolling gibberish?

    I offered a situation earlier why this would detect false positives. People actually discuss gold selling quite often, simply because gold sellers exist.

    "Don't support gold selling, please"
    "Please don't buy gold"
    "I wish that Zenimax would crack down on these gold sellers"
    "Can anything be done about the gold seller spam?"

    Then there are the cases of gold sellers getting creative to get around any potential automatic filters:

    "Go|da|-|. |3uy G0|d cheap o nl y $ 3 0 doll ar."

    No. They go P2W, I quit. Period. End of story.

    I think the single best alteration they could make to current policy would be to also crack down hard on gold BUYERS. Buying gold = permaban

    Horrible idea. So the solution to fixing gold spammers is to offer an official gold spammer? Seems like there are about a 100 better ways including letting the gold spammers have free reign. The best option is to hire a few more GM's to focus on banning these guys. Make it a perma account wide ban so at least they have to buy a new copy of the game to try selling gold again.

    This is really the solution. Ban buyers and sellers. Banning sellers will just increase revenue for Zenimax, as the sellers will have to buy more and more copies of the game. Likewise, the price of gold will go up to cover this cost of doing business. This will result in gold sellers not making enough money to cover expenses at which point they abandon the game (or start relying solely on phishing/hacking accounts, which they will/are doing anyways).

    No. If this came down the pipe, I would leave. End of story. And, I know I'm not alone. This isn't some P2W F2P crap. You want us to actually give you money every month? Then don't monetize the in game currencies.

    People who want to just buy their way to awesome can go find whatever pay to win Korean grindfest and have their fun there.

    And, just to be clear, the people asking for this are the exact same group that are already buying gold and ensuring that the *** goldspammer population is out of control.

    And this is the truth. These guys are just looking for a more secure way of buying gold. One they don't have to worry about leading to their account being hacked or suspended, or their credit card being stolen.

    Any response I can give to the idea in the OP will result in a long forum vacation. No.

    If you really want to get rid of gold sellers, ban all the buyers along with them, and publicly name the accounts banned for doing so. Sales will dry up overnight once people realize not only can they lose their accounts, but they will be ostracized by the rest of the community and denied groups/guilds because of their actions.
