Storage and Filtration

This post is going to be for those people who already farm gold and are unsure of what to do with it once it's farmed, but there is no immediate buyer.



One of the most heinous things I can image as a gold farmer,
Is one of my guild vaults getting banned.

That's why Storage is such a big deal. Not only storage, But handling.










So this is what I've seen happen to a few people.




Noob seller: "Wow I scored selling my ,
I should really sell this gold!!


*Noob seller uses yahoo search and finds a foreign buyer*




Shady Buyer: "we pay u fr gold 100k, 300 USD. , ".


*Noob seller opens trade with lvl 1 orc "lolisellgold" *


(Deep underneath the Wow ground, Blizzard has an Evil engine called Warden,
Who's cogs have been jolted with the red flag of exploitation)


*Shady Buyer takes an hour to pay Noob seller*


Later that evening....





*Noob seller enjoys his money*





After an awesome night of rest and relaxation thinking about the vintage GI Joe action figures he ordered the night previous,
He wakes up and logs into Wow....










Noob seller:

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH





What was his major mistake you ask?


My Advice:


Some of you may know, I encourage everything you do to seem as Human and Routine as possible.

This includes the trading of gold, either to alts, friends, or for sale.

In daily gameplay, Not that many people trade 50k from a lvl 1 human to another lvl 1 human, wearing newbie stuff and dancing in town, Unless they are involved in the gold trade.



This has become well known, Both by players and by Blizzard Staff.

If I can come up with it, I guarantee the overpaid staff at Blizz can as well.


This raises the question, How the hell do I trade my gold then?




I'll give you two of the main ingredients, I'll leave it up in the air as to HOW to create these accounts and guild vaults without associating them with your farmers/main accounts, etc.


1: Guild Vaults. (Buy guild signatures, form a guild with a non offensive "Standard" type name)



2: "Throw Away" Vanilla accounts (wow cd key, activated for 30 free days)


The less account to account trading you do the better.
Try to look at every single transaction you do, And ask yourself if this is how a regular player would be doing it if the task was not exploitative.


If you are going to move a large sum of gold,
Make sure it's within a guild vault, using deposits and withdrawls, and you know it might not even hurt to level the toon you're gonna trade stuff around with a bit.

What does lvl 5 take, like 15 minutes?


Enjoy the pictures, I enjoyed finding them.
