Sure as hell hope not.
Gold buyers imo are worse than botters (unless botters have multiple bots farming gold). Not only do they fuc up the economy they also create server traffic and when/if they do hit the cap they'll have great gear since..their gold is their own moneys limit..

agreed,seriously.
------------------
if you find yourself buying gold for some shiny weapons (same with botting), means you just lost the game, and you shud quit it.

+1.
and i dont think MOST ppl buy gold, only about 30% does i guess.
yesterday i still got ks ed at isy. by some1 who was lvl 52 (with a +3 spear) when i was 64, and now is lvl 80 or so with a +5 spear while i am lvl 69 -_-' (and no, im not a slow leveler).
ppl always bot up, and buy gold. then go to DW south and see if they can get a little ego boost

I've bought gold.
Mind you, it was a year or two ago when I first started and didn't have a clue what a goldbot was. A bot was, for that matter.
I was 3x and wanted a SOS bow for my pure int bower (lol), I was totally ignorant to the fact that buying gold was a bad thing, and that it was the cause of why I had to spend an hour logging in.
Anyway.. OT, I don't think a lot of higher levels buy gold anymore. Once you have gold, you spend it on pimping an items etc and get such a big profit that you wouldn't need to buy it anymore.
Also.. IF they feel they must buy it, they'd probably just buy it from someone on the server as they usually sell it for a lot cheaper than gold companies.. just a fact!

I don't know why people buy gold to be honest, Botter or not you can make gold its easy. All you gotta do is know how, i'd never buy gold, its not worth it. Pimp drops, or buy pimp sell.

Well, gold buying is not like botting imo. I know a lot of people that bot, maybe 60% of my ingame friends, and only like 5% of them or maybe even less have ever bought gold....
So i don't think so many people buy gold...
And if i have to be honest, at the begining i dodn't knew that gold buying is illegal in the game... i thought it's like the item mall - you pay and get what you want...

Gold buyer think its impossible to earn alot of gold hence always accuse ppl who has alot of gold buy gold. Just as botters accuse high lvl legits of botting.
Gold buying is a HUGE issue because with no gold purchase, there wouldn't be gold bots in the first place. Gold bot is the main reason servers got crowded. Inflating prices.
Bots and Gold Bots are most of the time inter related. Theres a trend, 99% of the full sun players are gold buyers cum botters. The 1% are ass licker.

I don't know many 70+ players, but the prices got so high that there must be at least some of them who bought gold.
IMHO if nobody bought gold, the gold bots would disappear. Or am I just too idealistic?

Sadly enough power doesn't equal respect.
I don't plan on buying gold. I'm happy enough with my lucky char who can elements.
3 sos equips by lvl 26 FTW.
