selling for real money

[rearrow]

its illegal becauae lvls cost realmoney.
its hard to enforce. they would need screenshots asking for lvls in return for gear.
but first rules must be clear before it can be enforced or people do it unknowingly. also people can say they didnt know when they did.

Long time players like me remember many rules which newer players dont know about.

in a comming update rules will be accessible from within the app itself and not only on forum.
I wont share details thats up to GM team.
that will make it easier for players toknow the current rules.

As for extortion, send screenshots to GM. hes been jailed and warned. contibuing this will probably mean perm jail.

So to clear this up. Example. 250 plate being traded by person 1 to person 2 for 10 levels. Gear sales for levels/real money id considered forbidden and rule breaking?

If so, this hasnt in the slightest been enforced. At all. If its not illegal, well youve already had issues of extortion brought to your attention. By the way, he is still doing it. Hes just being polite about it these days.

it is a rule-breaking.

we cannot really enforce it but by getting reports. otherwise, we would monitor logs 24-7 and game would not develop.

simply, players should know, that we deny it. if any issues arise from these trades, its not our problem.

that creator sells for real money has a simple resason... it is his game

Cool so since its now deemed rule breaking ill use this thread as reference. Because i know someone whos been doing this for a very long time.

Tellme if i am wrong gandalf
Has i understood at ur postthat trades arent ilegal just simple if u buy the 50 lvls by example and other guy lie to you and u dont get nothink , that isnt admins problem and they wont help

[rearrow]

I am not Gandalf but this ishow I understand it.

no dino.
trading for lvls is illegal.
if proven by screenshot people can be warned/jailed etc.

but if you do this illegal trading anyway (ignore that it is illegal) and are cheated. mods cannot help.

if u do something illegal. the ' police' wont help if u are cheated. instead u may even be punished.

[dinoponte2]

Ok got it , but if you want buy lvls to one friend u wont be punished for that , or thats lot stupid
And i guess this not way to resolve buy lvls issue, like this going lot people will get lvl5k and destroy game but well if u think is this rules will change it is up to u creater

[Jive]

yeah it is his game to undermined and chose you to gift benefits... your right Gand thanks... and those that feel cheated will continue to enforce the "law" of true game experience... alot buy lvls but others get better offer threw bs?... ik no ones dumb enough to buy 100k... 3 robes?... rather buy lvls... atm i feel like games dead on crashing... all i needed was confrimation... i give up... guess im back to no order in FT and back to doin what i do best... pure carnage and random kills... if ur not raw/ad/trio/lgnd dont trust when DR walks up on you... might b walkin with no boots

I dont see the problem of trading items for lvls...because this is essentially an in-game transaction....

I myself bough an acc for 10 lvls from a friend that wanted a different character to play.... this I would assume is legal because it happened in-game.

However selling accs for REAL money outside the game structure should be forbiddedn.

just my opinion

jast an aside perhaps the REAL problem is unlimited lvl buying... or the concept of buying levels at all..

If the buy store was shifted to power ups to help one lvl up faster instead of outright level buying, this problem would dissappear..not the first time I have recommended this.

Trading items for small amounts of levels seems ok on first glance. But you get your people who actually extort levels from other players. Or continually kill them in the hopes (and some of the time being quite successful) to sell them back theor gear.

Selling accounts for real money. Well its in the rules I guess, but as the game is now you couldnt really just stop level buying and replace it with powerups. What happens to the current high lvls and current highest lvl?

A dictatorship if their butt-hatts like we know a few are in which theyl slowly kill off the game. Or with the nicer ones a caste styled social system where their at the top pretty much forever because future high lvls now cant entirely exist as they are now.

A hardcap would be good though.

Those gears for levels, right? It is a tiny group, they are well-known professional extortionist. They had been reported a few times, and the trade is still going on! The question is, how to stop this bullying?
The case seems complex as many such trades/extortion are performed on other platforms like FB now.
