The only reason gold sellers exist is because people buy gold.  These people are enabling gold sellers and giving them motivation to virus and hack your фекал.  The real "ваууheads" here are the gold buyers, stop defending them.

Some easy karma, bitcoins and bragging. Now props to him but he could of remove the personal information, or even better, just send the post to the devs as a genuine normal person would do.

All these people asking for "ban vpn"...how would you do it?

There is no universal vpn detector. There are like 50 (maybe much more) well known VPN providers with thousands of different IP ranges,
hundreds of thousands of different IP adresses.
Even if you could figure all those addresses out and ban them all, it takes about 30 mins to set up a totally new vpn server, with a totally new ip range.
Even a home computer or smartphone can be set up to be a vpn server, you can't ban all the possible addresses, because that is basically almost the whole internet.

Imo playing on Nost/Elysium is totally enjoyable now with the use of the addon Spamthrottle (the version with WIM support) so just download that and play.


And btw selling gold is just a service like any other, it's not a sin, nor is buying gold.
Okay, it's againts the rules, so you knowthat doing it involves a risk of getting banned, but other than that, it's fine.

 

Oh and the people saying that the gold buyers are "indirectly responsible for the hacks of innocent players" are ваууin' stupid.
By this logic every living human is indirectly responsible for every harm and sin to everybody.

I'm driving a car that uses fuel, which came from oil so I'm "indirectly responsible" for all the oil spills or all the wars countries generated because of oil resources?
You wear clothes so you are "indirectly responsible" for all the child slaves in 3rd world countries used to cheaply manufacture clothes?
Same with electronic devices, phones, jewelry etc?

That is not how responsibility works.

True, but that's how "we don't give a fuck about goldbuyers' personal information" works.

Actually cheating IS a sin. I'm not a religious person but I know that much.

Buying Gold from a 3rd party in an MMO that forbids it is cheating whichever way you look at it.

Holy фекал. Could someone go and delete this post immediately. Displaying personal information (even if only name and e-mail adress) is just not ok. Hacking is not ok. The hacker should be shamed for this, not praised.

Any information given to someone else under the agreement that it is not shared, should not be displayed on forums. That includes e-mail adresses, account name, and the many names and surnames that are a part of e-mail adress. Just remove it. Does it hurt anyone? GMs have the data now (hopefully).

He did send it to Ely staff, but they didn't respond/acknowledge it, so he posted publically. Or at least that's what he says happened on Reddit.

Yes absolutely. How could you even question that? There are people who consume conscientiously and never buy clothes that were made by children, or ride bicycles so they never have to buy petrol, or stop eating meat so they don't participate in the brutal slaughter of animals etc.

"Demand creates supply" don't tell me you've never heard that before. If you buy some shit that was made unethically you're directly responsible for it, not indirectly. That's a fact.

In this case, if nobody ever bought any gold from these chinese farmers then they wouldn't be here with their toxic spam. It's ENTIRELY the buyers fault if they are here. Same with prostitution, child porn and every other vomitous human service that exists exclusively to satisfy a demand.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA The idea to place "buying gold" on the same level as " Prostitution or childporn " is ridiculous mate.

Did you just put eating meat and child porn into the same basket?

Seriously, the self rightousness of you people is deplorable.

Some of these comments, you got to love the interwebs... why do some people care what others do so much... if player X decided to buy gold with his own money then so be it.. who are you to say otherwise imo. There was a ton of gold buying being had back on retail in vanilla, i knew many raiding guilds that couldn't keep up with the repairs and went to the dark side... and... who cares.

I do agree with the action Elysium has taken, and am happy i no longer get spam from gold buyers... myself i work to hard for my money to waste it on BS. but thats me.. to each his own.

On the side in favor of this leak, non-gold buyers.

On the side against it, gold buyers pretending otherwise.  (You're not fooling anybody.  I hope you're in there.)

Fight it out!

Learn2read bro. I didn't say they were morally equal I said they both obeyed the same law of supply and demand.
