Beware the % sales guild scams

How it works:
Guild claims it sold x $$$$$$ during the week
Guild auto-blocks all who didn't do their set % requirement of claimed total sales during that week -guild chat disabled + other 'punishments'
People panic. They sold 40k? They have the MM sales.
But the leaders just refer them to a Discord % sales message, refuse to provide evidence, and keep the person in 'punishment'.
Person starts offering cash. Until person offers x amount, guild leader ignores mails.

Don't be scammed. Leave.

    People actually extort real world money in said example? And there's screenshot proof?

    If someone is asking for real money, I would screenshot and report it.

    This, now if they simply disabled guild chat I would just block the leader and dumped the guild at once.
    Its not like its hard to get an trading guild. Plenty of social guild also has decent traders who is much better.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    A ticket is likely to be more productive than a forum post. That way you can at least name and shame - assuming, of course, that you have the evidence to back it up otherwise it could be your account that has action taken against it.

    [snip] No one demands real money. Most guilds either ask to sell for certain amount or pay some fixed amount of gold. Guild slots are limited and they cant have people just sit there taking up space. Also the traders cost alot of gold and that's the reason for setting up dues. If you have trouble selling the required amount then just pay gold or find another guild with lesser requirements.
