You get paid in publicity. It's a volunteer job.

iTunes trading used to be a month ban. With recent changes in the jailing and banning system, i'm not sure on the exact punishment but it is against the rules. It doesn't matter if it's a real code or not.

how about that?

so...... are you going to ban them or what? you've got the proof of two individuals attempting to trade there pixelated items for real life money...

if no action is taken, people will continue to do this as they will know thta the staff won't do anything.

action -->> reaction

Read up.
Also I can't go just off one vague photo. He wasn't exactly caught in the act of trading. The most I can do in that situation is just a warn for soliciting real-world trading (or USD'ing). I'm also completely aware of the fact that it's such a grey area to catch a player on and really needs some more rules and a harsher punishment for precisely this. This is why staff don't do all that much about it, and thus is why it's gotten completely out of hand. All that is out of my power though because i'm merely a PR so don't bug me for any reforms because it just ain't happening.
Newton's laws do not apply to Graal.

Thanks Lava for making my point exactly.

One time, a long time ago, I (not knowing it was against the rules), traded a game certificate ($4) for an egg hacky. Uh, just ought to let you know.

uhoh watchout guyz we gota badass over here

I don't hate anyone of anything. I have no personal issues with GoonSquad or any of there members. This goes as an overall for everyone. There should be harsher punishments. How many times has this happened that people are caught RED-HANDED trading real life money in a game (naming and shaming can be done on request) and no action is being taken... :/ I understand your point Lava but something's gotta be done. It's not morally right for someone to disobey the rules yet get away with it. This is why people are still trading iTunes money EVEN AFTER being fully aware it is illegal. They know that no punishment will be issued with. This should've been stopped a VERY VERY long time ago when the 'iTunes scamming' first came in. But what the heck, better late then never. So let's do something about this shall we staff?

A snitch nigggggggga that's that **** I don't like!!

Sorry Goon I totally like you bro but prepare to get flamed.

Lmao auctioners. It's basically buying umbrella with gralats without the hassle of winning an auction. Though,It is illegal.

Yup. Suprised he isnt banned...

thats what she said

Question: Why aren't they banned yet?
and if they are caught doing this by the government, could graal era be shut down?

even if they get banned or jailed they will eventually get unbanned or unjailed then they just do it all over agin :( graal should really add a legit trading system the scamming level is over 9000!

Stop with the trading systems, with it without trading systems it is the same thing! It is all about winning the people trust, if I am able to scam people to other MMORPG games with trading systems I can to in iEra.

Real life money scamming is hard to approve on the online game that is widely based, records, game conversation and last of all the country. Some countries don't even give a damn about it.

And for GoonSquad, who gives a damn about it... It is just a gang, they done nothing wrong. Everything done to followed by the era law, only people hate it. People hating really doesn't have nothing to pin them down as they done nothing wrong as scamming is legal.
