Ok. I have no idea where else to put this so I decided this was the best place for it. I found someone advertising the selling of Guild Wars currency for real money. I got a nice clear screenshot of it and the name of the person. They also provided a place to go for purchasing this "money".

Send it to Anet. I don't think you can post names here.

Loviatar · Oct 18, 2005, 03:33 PM // 15:33

send the screen to customer support to add to everybody elses to help shut them down.

every bit helps.

heh

It's quite funny -- it's not a person -- it's completely automated. Better known as a "bot"

If you've reported em -- it's really all you can do -- it's Anet's move now. But let's face it, if people wish to squander their real money on fake virtual money....who cares..??

Nice one... you've just advertised that website to thousands of people, you must work for them do you?

But now that you have done it...

In other words he wants a cookie as well!

Actually he would probably want a hob-nob as he's from brighton

Ok. Enough about the cookies...geez. I came to report a violation and people start getting hungry on me. What type of cookies? Shortbread, chocholate chip, oatmeal?
