Peons4Hire is Pwned by Blizz

Taking a break from the usual grind I found this over at WoW Insider. It may be old news to some (they announced it yesterday), but I’m sure it’s welcomed by all. Ok…well..except those shitheads at Peons4Hire.

This is probably the best news I’ve heard so far all year: Blizzard has won an injunction against Peons4Hire, which means that the one-time constant chat spammer is now legally banned from interfering with the game. It sounds like Blizzard sued on nearly all the causes that were speculated on a while ago, and as a result, have outright won their case: according to the injunction, In Game Dollar (the company that advertised Peons4Hire) is “permanently enjoined” from “making any use of the World of Warcraft in-game communication or chat system to advertise any website, business, or commercial endeavor.”Which means, in no uncertain terms, that we’ll never see those ingame tells again. The only drawback is that, as Virtually Blind says, this is an injunction, not a decision, and so it doesn’t have the “precedential weight” that a decision might– Blizzard can’t really legally use this to walk away with an easy win in the next case that comes along. But over the course of a few different settlements, including stuff happening in other virtual worlds, there is a legal precedent being established against using one company’s service without permission to advertise another.

Blizzard apparently used signed integers for their World of Warcraft gold values as some people have recently hit the limit of 2^31. “Apparently that amount is 214,748 gold, 36 silver, 48 copper. After you reach that lofty sum, you’ll no longer be able to receive money from any source in the game. While some responses to the original posts claim that this exact limit had previously been theorized to exist, there have been no reports of anyone in the game actually achieving this amount via legal means.”. I guess Blizzard didn’t expect anyone to ever get close to that much gold in game. buy cialis buy cialis buy levitra buy levitra buy propecia buy propecia buy soma buy soma buy levitra buy cialis buy propecia buy levitra buy soma buy cialis buy propecia buy levitra buy soma buy cialis buy levitra buy propecia buy soma

How to make a TON of Gold in World of Warcraft

Posted on 2008 under News | No Comment

29 Jan

One thing that has always bugged me about World of Warcraft is how long it can take to make money in the game. While a few of my guildies have bought their gold, I’ve flat out refused to buy a single copper. And yes I agree that while Outland allows you to make a ton more money, everything costs a ton more! Basic inflation rules here people…

During one of my bitch-sessions about how much a freaking epic flying mount cost, one of my guildies jokingly suggested I buy one of those gold guides.

The first thing I can tell you.. you will kick yourself if you ever read these guides. I felt like the biggest idiot for not coming up with these ideas myself. It’s not cheating the game at all… its just making use of materials most players take for granted. Anyway, got my epic mount now, and a ton of twinked out alts. I currently have about 31k in my bags right now

Valkor’s Gold Guide
I wasn’t making 200 gold per hour as the author did, but I did hit about 160g a few times. 160g an hour! f*ck!!!! I used TitanBar to measure my performance. The cool part about the book is you can jump right in and start earning right away. You don’t have to read cover-to-cover to try some tactics, even though you’ll find it hard to put down. The other cool part of both of these great books is you can download them right away… don’t have to wait on shipping. We have a review of this book here.

Warcraft Riches
Supposedly the original make money guide. Had killer tips like the above one, and you’ll be making 160G per hour easy. I’ve been using secrets from these two to make a ton of cash now. I’ve got all my alts decked out and a few twinks. I tell ya Blizz should reduce the prices of stuff, makes the game more enjoyable to be able to afford crap.

Anyway - don’t buy gold and risk being banned, you don’t need to. Just learn some of the gajillion ways to legitimately make it and you’ll feel better about yourself, and save money in the process. And you won’t break any WoW rules (gold buying is against the rules supposedly). My personal favorite guide to making money in a legit way is Valkor’s Guide.

Review: Valkor’s 200G per HOUR Guide

200g an hour? C’mon that can’t be possible, can it?

You’ve probably seen them on every WoW site out there. Gold guide banners and Buy Gold banners. You also probably already knew that buying gold for WoW is not only unethical, its against Blizzards terms of service. Buying gold guides however, is not, as they are only strategies… you still must earn the gold yourself.

We recently purchased Valkor’s Gold Guide to see what all the Gold Guide fuss is all about, and if its just a big hoax, as we suspected. We were, however, in for a surprise.

Valkor’s gold guide shows you what may seem obvious to the already-rich players. Did you know that you could spend a few hours in the auction house and make a fortune, without setting one foot outside the city? You don’t have to go out farming and racking up gear expenses. Just play the auction house and get richer and richer. This is one of many techniques covered in the book. He gives you a list of items that you can purchase for 1 silver and turn around for 1 gold! All without leaving the AH.

There are specific zones in the game that when worked properly will allow you to gather items as they spawn. Most of the farmers know this. Some of these items values are so high, that you can effectively make about 200G / hour while doing this method. Maps are included in the guide to show you exactly where to go and what paths you should follow.

He shows you where the most common places are to get the highest value cards for the decks. Keep them for yourself or turn them around for big profits. There are also tips about getting infinite primals quick and easy as well as which faction items are extremely high profit.

Valkor

The guide is kept up-to-date with free update releases. It contains 2.3-specific information and the free 2.4 update to all registered users is in the works as we speak. He also promises FREE LIFETIME updates including the next expansion. I was pretty amazed by this.

I’ve only broken the ice on this wonderful guide. It has improved the game for me as a whole, since I’m a big fan of twink (low level rich character) PvP. With essentially infinite gold, I can make twinks quickly for my weekend PvP sessions.

Rating: 9/10

Check out the book. You won’t be disappointed.
