WOW GGG banned a Master Supporter player

To the guy who asked 'what are we arguing about'. The same thing a lot of threads end up getting hung up on - undefined terms. In this case 'donation'.

What? the Online in POE is a carbon copy of a failed 2001 online. the Engine is a failure in POE, the grpahics fails the animation fails. This is one of the worst arpg engines in the world with one of the worst performances.

Please use your brain before making such stupid ignorant comments next time.

Could you explain me how you can still play a game your seems to hate so much ?
You should take a look at PoE story along the years and how hard it has been to achieve what GGG is providing atm to us. Take a look at Blizzard or others big company after and you may understand the big difference.

From one non-veteran to another,



Peace,

-Boem-

He is speaking the truth, this is what Chris said POE is a niche game only for hardcore nerds.

LOL

Chris loves to appeal to the hardcore nerds this is how he built POE on their trust, that they will forever live in a small niche game that is a clone of D2 with modern day graphics.

Man, if Chris would just combine D3's gameplay with PoE's mechanics... holy shit.

PoE is fun to tinker with, but playing the actual game sucks.

And I agree, it's absurdly naive to believe that a business is going to turn down shitloads of money just to "keep it real", so to speak.

Do people actually think that buying a supporter pack is some sort of bribe so they won't get banned for violating ToS? We don't do that here m8

Maybe OP was caught by the recent diablo 3 ban wave and didnt want to regrind back to his paragon lv4200 without botting. So he picked up poe and realize how different poe is to D3. Then everything all makes sense.

Well I am arguing that as soon as I pay for something which is clearly designed as game content I become a customer and have consumer protection laws. Whatever they want to call they product e.g. "supporter pack". I even provided evidence that freemium games are not exempt from this (consumer rights act 2015). Doesn't matter that other people play this game completly for free. My initial statement was that it is not that easy to just ban people and it might be advisable to look into it if you are from the EU.

Does it even matter? Customer protections don't give you immunity do break establishment rules. Has anybody won a lawsuit against a casino that banned them? A paying casino customer that gets caught cheating doesn't get their money back. They don't have legal protection from getting banned from that casino even if they were paying customers.

Cheating in a casino is nowhere near the same as purchasing items in GGG on a 3rd party site with your own money

In a Casino when you cheat you are scamming the casino out of their money because in a casino you are getting real money. In POE its simply a matter of the very same ingame cosmetics that you happen to be using real money on in a 3rd party website.

This is nothing remotely close to going into a casino and rigging a machine or hiding extra cards in your sleeve.

Are you serious? Selling GGG's intellectual property against their wishes is no different than selling bootleg copies of music without the artists consent. Of course, you probably think it's ok to pirate music. Who profits? Not the entity that owns the property. Who gets harmed? The person whose property is devalued. It hurts GGGs game to have rmt going on. People are less likely to support their game if they allow rmt by not banning. So cheaters do hurt their bottom line, just like cheaters in a casino hurt the casino's bottom line.
