it's the consumer's fault for giving blizzard money to begin with and saying yeah this is acceptable.

I cannot fucking believe a game based on earning loot through playing has devolved into discussions about the legitimacy of unfair third party transactions and blizzard's attempted monopoly on it instead of just playing the fucking game. It's monetized and we all support it, and because we keep playing their games and buying their services we will never see a change.

Nah, not broken. This is their game, it's fucking stupid to think that anyone can pay another person, company, entity, etc while bypassing the game's devs and then expect the devs to not punish you for it. And then there's the fact that what they were buying was going for a significant discount. If that's not coming from the devs then there's no way that's legit. You should always think it's the worst scenario, in this case essentially buying stolen goods because it's very possible to be from a stolen credit card, stuff like this is the epitome of "a deal too good to be true." Even if it's actually someone spending money from a different currency, if you find a deal like that you shouldn't expect it to be legit and you shouldn't expect to be able to keep what you bought through some random non-authorized third party.

This is not new, in Genshin happened the same. People went and bought crystal from a random guy because they were selling them cheaper. The catch was that after they bought the crystals the seller asked for a refund on their side and the account was left in the negative, they let you know you had x days to pay or get banned. In the end the fault is on the buyer, you have to buy from the official seller and not some random dude on a dark alley selling you something a bit cheaper.

Using 3rd partys to buy stuff in game is always against the rules because the company that made the game doesnt get money from it.

Has any gacha game ever had ingame trade system? Even back in the PAD day I don't even remember it ever had one. The way Blizzard resolve thing is the first time I saw it though.

Just want to point out that this is compliant with how stolen goods are handled in the UK. In the UK, if you buy stuff that was stolen and you don't know they're stolen, the police takes it from you and returns it to the owner without compensating you. You need to sue the thief if you want any compensation. In this case, if Blizzard refunded the money to the original owner, then at least they followed this pattern. If you know or think they might be stolen then you've actually committed a crime as well.

@Lfancoes Жыл бұрын

This's why I always avoid third party market no matter how cheap it is. since there's a rules about this in most game TOS. When the dev suddenly in a power trip rampage or when you got scammed (Charge-back), they wont listen to your reasoning. Both Blizzard and your seller already got your money, they wont help you. Never think third party seller as your friend.

@Fourside__ Жыл бұрын

Its pretty simple, i know nothing about DI, but you see, if you allow a currency that as i understand it can only be bought with real money to be traded between players, you encourage and allow those credit card scammers to do their work in hopes of some percentage of those fraudulent transactions to not be flagged and keeping the gains from it. As i see it, the only instance thats to be blamed for this is activision blizzard themself.

@GodzThirdLeg Жыл бұрын

I disagree, mostly because the only way scammers can hope to offload their premium currency before they get banned is to give huge discounts, which should make any prospective buyer suspiscous. It's like buying fake designer clothes, there is no way that people don't know they bought fakes even though almost all of those people claim they didn't know. I am not saying Blizzard doesn't also share the blame, but the guys buying would have to be basically incapable of living by themselves without a lot of assistance to not have known why the currency was so cheap.

It isn’t that every secondary seller will bring a ban, but there is risk that typically correlates to the level of discount. It gets even riskier when the purchased digital good must be initially sourced from within the same ecosystem that it is traded in. If the account doing the selling is caught because blizz gets hit with chargebacks from a theft victim’s CC company, they might not know or have the power to shut-down/punish the external marketplace (a la G2A), but they CAN punish all parties that obviously interacted on that site.

Shia is on my server and our clan had to face him in the rite of exile pvp battles a couple times. His kill/death ratio was 29-2 and 28-0 respectively in both games and so we hit the 55 death cap very quick. It was just laughable. In the third game rematch a couple weeks later, he was not on their team and was more of a balanced/fair resonance fight, and sure enough we crushed them 31-15 in kills and won the game. It just shows the magnitude of the whale impact, and I'm sure it caused many players to lose faith or confidence and just quit all together, which Blizzard does not want so these actions were necessary. I have zero sympathy for this loser and would slap him silly if we had the same gear/reso. I have NO idea why they are still allowed to pvp so he has like a 5.5k rating right now, but I'm sure he will leave soon.
