Trading in-game currencies and goods for some store items with GGG assistance
" Man, support said it is legal. If other player want to help - it is his choice. I will share other sentence from that respone: " This means: If you want to help - do it via support. It is gift just because there is no exchange rate. RMT has some values of exchange. Gifting has not any. If support says "YES", it means - yes. Also, I was born in USSR. It was socialism, where people help each others. Not like you - capitalists. | |
" Right. I do not give my friend specific items. I give him items which I needn't. However, i would give them to somebody. Also, trade always some kind or rate. Within gifting system there is not any exchange rate. | |
Support didn't say it was legal. They said they might be able to help with a gift. If they knew you were really trading they'd not allow it. Try it more than once and you'll find out.

"wait wait wait i thought ggg only sells NON-p2w mtxes... was I wrong? And worst change is putting almost all bosses in new version of maps into fucking small areas, where you can't kite well or dodge stuff. What a terrible idiot invented that I want say to him: dude flick you, seriously flick you very much.

if you want other players legally gift you with shop points just make a guild, invite them and let them spend points to the guild. the points and stash tabs you buy with te points are basically yours because you can kick these players from the guild after some time (or they leave themselves).
other player to player gifts are decided case by case by ggg support. there should be a reason you want to gift those players and there is no guarantee ggg will do the point transfer. players paying ingame favours with points probably is one of the reasons ggg will not do the point transfer :-) age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill!

" Some people think that buying stash tabs for another player is RMT. But in fact there is no any shop item that is pay-to-win. They are just cosmetic or useful for playing(more space). Also, they think that I am RMT seller. I didn't say that people help each other. I spared like 300chaos orb to friend, helping him to achieve 40/40. But I didn't ask him to buy smth for me because we live in ex-USSR. So price is the same for me and for him. | |
P2w and RMT are two different things. It doesn't matter if stash tabs are p2w. If something costs real money, and you trade time or in game items for that thing that costs real money, it is RMT. The R stands for Real and the M stands for Money. When GGG starts allowing you to buy mtxes for in game currency, it will no longer be RMT. I don't see that ever happening because they can't pay for servers with exalted orbs.

I have said. RMT means: YOU ARE GETTING MONEY.
| |
And RMT does NOT mean only money. If I washed your car for a weapon effect, that is still RMT. You are trading out of game goods and services for in game items. That is not allowed.
Don't worry though, I have more than made Support aware of this thread in case they weren't aware of it already.

So far, the Universe is winning."

" exactly. gifting other players with ingame currency is "pay to win". question is, is it "borderline ptw" as stash tabs are? i think, dependent on the game's health, we will see official ingame gifting with points sooner or later. the fact that guilds already exploit that topic to the extreme is a sign it's not a total taboo for ggg. age and treachery will triumph over youth and skill!
