Update - Thursday, March 18, 2008
Real-Money Trading
Today we are taking steps to further protect the game from abuse by real-money trading (RMT) companies. Please read our Policy on Real-Money Trading for more information on how and why we block real-money trading.
* We are adding the ability to block certain IP addresses from the game. In the coming days and weeks, we will be using this capability to block addresses of RMT companies that heavily abuse the game.
* We are also adding code to detect and block IP addresses that are running an open proxy, so that players cannot mask their real IP address by connecting to the game through an open proxy.
* To clarify our policy on blocking IP addresses from the game, we added the following line to section 7 of the User Agreement:
NC Interactive may from time to time in its sole discretion implement various forms of filtering, blocking or monitoring of IP addresses or proxies used to use, play or access the Game(s) or the Service, including without limitation blocking or filtering measures that restrict your ability to use, play or access the Game(s) or Service outside of the territories in which NC Interactive makes the Game(s) or Service available.
* To combat a growing problem with account fraud, newly created accounts are now restricted from trading with other players within the first 24 hours after account creation. Please see today’s Dev Update for more information on this change.
Bug Fixes
* Fixed a bug in the Fissure of Woe quest The Tower of Strength [sic] that sometimes caused one of the Shadow Patrol groups to spawn inside the tower.
Woohoo! Bye Bye Bots ^^

Only thing i see that could serve as a problem is the not being able to trade within the first 24 hours of account creation. But hopefully they ask why they cant and us nice GW players can explain :)

does this mean gold will go up in value or do bots/gold companies not have a very large dent on the economy? (if anyone knows)

Eh..ive read those before. Ive always thought, myself, that Anet are the ones who sell the gold. They dont get enough by just selling the campaigns and not have a Fee to play. That is of course, just my thoughts on the matter :)

this may slow them down for a few weeks, but will only stop them in the sense that the report feature stopped bot farming

how is that idea proven false belshazaars. it totally proves what he says. He said Anet gets a cut, and most of the shit they do is just for PR and for people saying WOOT WOOT NO MORE BOTS! but in reality they just re activate the botted accounts. CorruptNinja, I think the same way. How can they make enough money off selling 4 campaigns, to constantly keep servers up, run different updates, and keep full teams working on GW1 and GW2 for both further development of each game and constant bug fixing etc. I don't think they sell the gold, but have partnerships with the gold selling companies.

quit gw for good. end of story.
