Pl ain't against the CoC, killing things while being afk is tho (that is, the one killing the mobs being afk, not any others who get xp from it like toons etc.)
And it's not really stupid, esp not if ya already own a few other lvl 50 chars, but if yer trying to get a pl without having a lvl 50 and thus a large ammount of cash ingame, well then you would have been better off getting an account from Ebay, altho thats against the CoC...

Depends how you go about getting PL.

If you paid someone with ingame money (e.g. 15 plat) for XX hours of PL, that's fine. But if you're using real world cash, or givng someone your account details so they can PL you, that's against the CoC.





+ Nothing retarded about getting PL with the way XP'ing is atm.

that's even more retarded. If you're going to not be AFK, you might as well do something constructive :p

Could you post where the CoC says you cant use IRL money and where you can't give your pw out. I think they just advise against it which is different entirely.

This EULA grants you a simple right to use all the components comprising the Expansion, and in particular all components included in the Expansion pack. Consequently, you may not sell, auction or in any way make available or surrender, free of charge or for a fee, any character from the Expansion, any object, any item or any component of the Expansion specifically protected by intellectual property rights.

All of the aforementioned actions, especially those performed via online auctions, forums or chat rooms, contravene the terms of this EULA. Over and above constituting a violation of the terms of this agreement, the sale of objects and/or items is detrimental to the Publisher's and the Expansion's image, for which we would be entitled to seek compensation from you.

It doesn't specifically say you can't offer PL for real-world money, but if you want confirmation it's best to ask via RightNow.

The proof is in the pudding, to which point it is pretty much imposible for GoA to actually prove either of those things provided you have the CD key, orignal owner name, address etc etc

Via certain bug abuse we all know xpin afk is possible but cant actually prove ur not sitting at ur kebo, just because u act unresponsive etc unless ofc they are standing over ur shoulder which anit happening :)

Ie dont have to reply to pms etc if u dont want to, regardless of who it is GoA offical or not, talking isnt part of any coc :)

Why play a MMORPG at all if you can't stand levelling? It's part and parcel of the genre...it's like watching 'Finding Nemo' and then complaining about it having too many fish in it.

Thanks Escape. I'm not sure about the moral standpoint though. The point about why play if you dislike pve is not valid. There are clearly 2 entirely different play strands to this game. Its like saying 'to play chess you first have to master draughts.' Same board, different game. Personally I dislike pve and being on my 3rd level 50 (almost exclusively levelled solo the hard way), I think I have paid my pennance to the pve fraternity ;)

I love the end game, RvR the most, but i enjoy PvE aswell if its with the right people etc.

So just because you aint a big fan of the way from 0 to 50 dont mean that you dont like the game or the MMORPG genre, cause levelling aint all in this game you know :)

Why play a mmorpg with RvR as the special thing, and much less focus on PvE than other mmorpgs at all when you can't stand rvr? (according to your sig)

And why even care why others play mmorpgs x|
