Well this is going to be interesting to say the least ...... I can see where RoM or Gameforge has some concerns about the abuse of the zeevex tokens, but to ban the sale of them completely (In stead of just banning the Guy screaming in world that he has 20 billion in gold and is buying all the zeevex he can and all his gear is for sale and he's quiting cause no one likes him blah blah blah) might be the straw that breaks the camels back.

This ban effects the 2 most important groups of people that play this game, of course the end gamers who have spent there $500 plus dollars to get there and now play just because we are the elite and can play for free because where selling gear and stats to the other most important group of people that play the game ......... the ones who spend money to buy gear to try to be as great as us ....... :p ......... thing is when a game gets as mature as this one is, one needs the other to keep things going too ....... If the end games leave because they cant get there diamonds anymore (and no I have spent over a grand on this game and Im not spending anymore for a single diamond) the guys who buy the gear have no one to buy from so they stop buying zeevex/diamonds and the game folds cause there's no income ...... SO whats rom going to do to keep the economy stable after rocking the boat so badly?

Things to keep in mind ..... people get used to getting so much value for there dollar and when they all of a sudden get less there not happy and leave ....... so on reni zeevex was selling for about 18-20k per ...... so a $10 card got you 18/20 mil gold ..... if you buy diamonds with your $10 card you get 210 diamonds ... you have to sell those diamonds @ about 95k each to get the same amount of gold ..... and yes as a zeevex buyer most people sold 1000 or 2000 tokens ...... $10/$20 cards ...... are these people going to stop buying diamonds now because there not feeling there getting there moneys worth now?

Things RoM/gameforge can do to keep people happy and playing there game and keeping them in jobs !!

1. up the amount of diamonds people will get when buying smaller dollar amounts ...... $100 gets you 6400 diamonds then $10 should get you 640 ...

2. Put diamonds back into the AH ...... you need to keep your end gamers happy too, we need them to play but were done spending our money now we just spend time making you money buy selling gear.

Be smart ,,,,,, don't pizz off 50% + of the players in the game when one of the most waited for new games in years is about to come out of beta or you might be out of jobs and those of us that planed on staying here and playing my have to find new games to play

now using your numbers 20 dollars brings in 18-20 million,tosh hm gear going for 300 mill per piece.well lets say 100 mill per piece.in theory to end game your toon you would need 17 pieces of gear(if secondary is scout).so 1.7 billion gold to buy 17 pieces at 100 mill ea.now sell dias or Zeevex to get that much gold.my point is end game gear is way over priced.

im not saying that endgamers should not get some of what they have spent back but in reality they arent spending money anymore. Zeevex is to discontinue the cards anyways.there always be a way for people to get dias without spending real money.

All i have to say, people will have to learn to cooperate and play together more. I think that the idea of the game mechanics proves that. You need a healer, tank and DPS to run instances. You need cooperation for crafting, because of the rule of the 1-3-6. Some people don't like to get help outside their guilds for various reasons and i understand that. But i did make friends in higher and lower guilds, and enemies lol, but we do help each other out when needed.

I think that if you make the loot rules clear before entering the instance and people respect those said rules, it would be viable. If a player doesn't apply the said loot rules, you kick him from party, make a list to know these said players, don't invite him/her on runs anymore and advise the other guild leaders of the situation.

Altought it might be tempting to need on a level 70 120 OD piece, but if a particular class in the party doesn't already have it and really needs it, there is no question that he/she should get it, no matter if you could get 200M for it. Since he was in the party for exactly that and all other classes hope to get theirs. I always go by those rules for our runs, guildies, friends and unknown alike, i think it's fair for all.

Need for your primary class, greed for secondary class or for selling. simple and good for everyone. I've been on runs lately, and sure you have the occasionnal moron, who waits for everyone to greed or need and comes up needing just cause it's 110 OD and the value is 50M+ and not his class specific. Then i leave group and don't run with that person anymore, plain and simple.

I think that we have a lot of good players and people on our RENI server, those who know the jolly giant green bunny failed tank, know that i am not a greedy player. I help and give millions of gold, XP orbs, TP orbs and gear, every week to lowbies and starting players in game. I just want to enjoy the game and fun players.

We had a player who tried to unite the guilds at one point, if anyone remembers, we all know how that turned out and all the BS that followed. I told him that i didn't believe him or trusted him from the start, i said so to other guild leaders too. Was i right? how can a greedy, over the top rich lying moron be trusted? hell no. He destoyed every guild he was in, caused drama and the only thing that unity got us, is him and his croonies getting the best players to join him and screwing up the prices in AH/diamonds/zeevex in game. I might be wrong or totally spaced out, but hell i do believe in our RENI server.

Anyone who needs help for runs and instances on the server know how to contact me, and they know if i'm on i will help ;-). So any guild leader who wants to get help for instances whisper me and i have always been doing it.

Also you all know i don't go around stealing guild members from other guilds, i might be DISTURBED but hell i'm not crazy. I'm here to enjoy a fun game, even if it's not perfect ;-).

Thx

It's funny that nobody remembers this. This used to be the policy on Zeevex. Iirc, it was the second management team from FA that lightened the restrictions on Zeevex trading. Up to that point, it had been a well advertised means by which to get banned.

I'm just glad we don't get banned for buying mana stones from the AH anymore.

Alright this thread is slowly spiraling out of control now.
No-one gets banned as long as he follows the ToS and rules. So simply transferring some gold or equip to an alt as example will not get you in trouble. To expand that example: IF large large LARGE amounts of gold switch hands between players without in-game counter value this does not lead to an immediate ban either but to an investigation. Every sanction against game accounts is the conclusion of very thorough investigation and every account holder has means to appeal a sanction by contacting our support team.


I know this reply is a little late, considering I was just referred to the forums about this whole zvx thing. I usually don't log in to game forums because I have a fear of my account getting hacked from exp of other games, but I had to log in to share my experience with the text i quoted.

Back when ch4 came out, the economy on the reni server was booming, people were farming SC and GCH as much as they could and unbinding gear or puri'ing stats to sell on the AH. At this time during the game, everyone was making t10 stones and after doing some research on how those t10's were selling, I decided to make my own and try and sell mine. At that time, t10 stones were selling for around 150mil per stone, so I BOUGHT dias from the website, I BOUGHT over 10k charges from the dias store during a promotional sale where it was like 100 charges for 50 dias. I then proceeded in making my t10 stones and when i had finished tiering and waiting those long hours of fusing, I listed 2 t10 stones at 150m each.

A couple hours had passed and I decided to log out and come back to the game. When I had tried logging in, an error occurred saying my account had been suspended for 30 days. I was confused because I had been offline and the last thing I did was list the t10 stones on the AH. Come to find out, after sending a ticket in, my account had been suspended on the false accusation that I had bought gold from a gold spammer because I sold my 2 t10 stones, which meant I had 300m sitting in my mail box. Understandable, when you ignore an investigation and hit the ban button first. That's like using the famous "good/bad" cop method to "punch face now, ask questions later." After a few hours of TRYING to appeal my account on terms of suspension because I was explaining to the GM that I had probably sold my t10 stones, it took nearly 3 weeks, after me giving up on my tickets, on my 30 days suspension for another GM to message me stating that she had looked into the ah history and found proof that I did indeed sell 2 stones 150m each and apologized to me and lifted my suspension. (the suspension wasn't just my account either, they had banned my IP address as well, which pissed off my dad who was/is still an active game player of RoM).


With all of this being said, I do believe that what you said in your reply contradicts my experience and although I am still clearly playing the game, its extremely hard for me to believe that based on your quoted text, "IF large large LARGE amounts of gold switch hands between players without in-game counter value this does not lead to an immediate ban either but to an investigation," that in the future, if something like my experience happens again to someone else in the game, that you GM's will stick to what you have told us you would do, or act on impulse like what happened with me.

Now going back on topic of the whole buying/selling of zvx tokens in game... If per say, someone needs gold to buy some gear on the AH that will indeed help their class move on to do better/more fun and challenging experiences in the game and someone, perhaps a guildmate, is willing to give you the money to do so by mailing it to you, is there a chance that you gm's will put a suspension on them in fear that they might be selling/buying zvx tokens for that one person instead of investigating a little further into the situation about what is really taking place?

If a GM can define LARGE amounts of Gold please?? i bought a Shackles of the curse face for our P/S for 60M from a very well known player on Reni. I loaned 40M to another guildie, who sent it back 2 or 3 days later after selling his other gear. I would like to know which LARGE amount can get us ban please? I don't want any surprises on my account.
