    Question Is Powerleveling + Gold Buying WRONG!?

    Theres one question thats been going along for a looonnng time and that is "Is Powerleveling + Gold Buying Wrong!? Some people dont have much time on there hands to farm like some people so they Buy WoW Gold to help them. Whats wrong with that? Its there discision they choose what they do.
    But of course WoW buying and powerleveling is against the WoW Rules so if you are caught you will probably be banned. And half the time it can be a scam, Is there anyone you can trust? Tell me what you think.

    PS: Im not saying i have done any of the above so dont go pointing fingers, im asking a question and thats it!

    Unbalances the game, funds chinese organisations that steal accounts they have been paid to level and then sell those accounts, credit card fraud and getting accounts banned because they use a bot to powerlevel.

    Yes they do steal credit card details.

    Powerleveling i would say yes.
    I have brought gold before, when i first ever started the game but i do think is wrong (hypercritical i know).
    If people don't have time to level and farm, or they knew they wouldn't as they have a busy lifestyle, then they shouldn't of brought the game in the first place. ;]

    I think it's wrong.. it's a game so it's meant to be played, it's as stupid as buying a game and letting someone else complete it for you... not as fun as it could be. Some people argue that 'they don't have enough time to make the gold/get the levels themselves' which is completely invalid excuse because as Dan said if you don't have the time, you shouldn't be playing this game.

    I buy gold quite alot, it's cheap and saves me alot of time ingame I could be using to do other things. It's very rare that Blizzard ban anyone for gold buying, as it's really up to Blizzard to stop gold selling in the first place so people been able to buy gold just shows they aren't doing as good job as they should be doing. I don't buy powerleveling because the risk is too high and it ends in tragedy too often, most powerlevelers will just stick your character on a glider anyway and why should I pay someone to do something I could easily do myself?

    I don't think that's a very fair comment really, people are busy with things other than WoW. They have jobs, families and other tasks they need to do as a higher priority over WoW. Saying if you don't have the time don't play at all isn't really fair, if your paying for something on a regular basis you should be able to enjoy the game to the full and if that means buying gold instead of doing the various tasks needed to gather it, then so be it.

    I agree yet disagree at the above comment.
    I go out a hell of alot and i have school and GCSE's at the moment so i don't get on much but i still manage to make a good amount of gold.

    Yes most people have jobs and families but they still find the time to get some money for themself, it doesn't take long at all to do a few dailies for cash. And you won't need thousands of gold unless you're buying epics, but you could just save up. Buying gold is just cheating no matter how you look at it.
