Sorry, but what does this tell me?
It is allowed to trade currency between new leagues and between standard leagues. It is not allowed to trade currency between old and new leagues.

For example:

Standard currency for hardcore currency --> allowed
Standard currency for Ambush currency --> forbidden

This is correct. I would recommend checking out our policy on this here.

Realize too that one party is at risk. Don't complain if it's you and you get scammed.

because GGG wants it to be^^

i guess they want everybody to start equal (which is debatable) but in the end, they make the game and they make the rules. ;)
They compared cross-league trading from old to new leagues to have a similar bad effect on competition like RMT does. However in this case they are able to restrain their own forums like they do with RMT already.

There are likely people still doing it. But they are up to be judged by GGG now.
Yes it is illegal but, and its a big but.. GGG do not enforce this rule.

Those 3 are just from the first page of trade forum. One of those posts is over 2 days old.

So while it may be against the rules, it doesn't mean you will be banned.
