Getting revenge on the gold sellers

[Adam-Savage]

Interesting article on wow.com

Gold spammers have gotten a little more creative these days. They don't leave corpses littering the streets; instead they have a fleet of level 1 characters that float in midair in annoying formations, or sleep on the ground and spell out the name of whatever website they happen to be advertising for. I cannot stand these guys, and I don't think there's anyone on my server who finds them remotely amusing.

Which is where my old friend the piccolo comes in. Want to get rid of the gold spammers fast? Stand in the middle of the group and use the trinket. Suddenly, all of the carefully designed formations are broken up as the level 1 orcs proceed to bust a move. The gold spammers hate this and will quickly log out.

Here is a video on you tube I hunted down that shows what it would look on the gold sellers.

Finally. A little something to teach these gold spammers a lesson. I've always been /punting them.

That is hilarious XD

I've only seen this sort of thing a few times. And the floating thing only once, on Sil in Ironforge. It's a pain in the butt and super annoying, but now I have a new reason to go get the piccolo > )

The article explains it, Fuzzy - it's out of Stratholme (the old one).

Funny thing is, I've never seen these guys alli-side, but I see them sooooo often in Orgrimmar.

FINALLY! GOLD SELLERS ARE ACTUALLY USEFUL FOR SOMETHING! XD

When I get my laptop back I'm totally gonna grab a couple of my grenades and sit in SW waiting for them to show up...then start a "welcome back" DANCE PARTY for Kas!

[Aleu]

I should go back to Strat and farm that thing. It never dropped when i was grinding Argent Dawn rep. >>; I'm so tired of these guys.

[MaximumOverdrive]

I actually did this all the time with my Party G.R.E.N.A.D.E.s lol...yeah it screws up everything.

I see these guys more often on ally side on my server than horde...I think I've only seen 'em once in Org, but I swear every time I'm in SW they're there...

[Pepsi Jedi]

I think ALOT of people are going to be getting he thing now that it's been pointed out. lol I know I am.

[Golden]

Ohh, I'm going to be doing this a LOT from now on. XD Luckily my Alli main has the flute already, so all I have to do is get it from the bank.

[sixthdeammonfox]
