WoW Accounts banned : World of Warcraft General Discussions

"As part of our efforts to eliminate cheating from World of Warcraft, we recently banned approximately 59,000 World of Warcraft accounts in the month of June, and with that removed well over 22 million gold from the total economy across all realms. While we regret having to take such extreme action, these accounts were participating in activities that directly violated World of Warcraft's Terms of Use, including the use of third-party programs to farm gold and items. Such behavior not only negatively impacts the economy of a realm, it diminishes the achievements of those who play legitimately. We will continue to aggressively monitor all World of Warcraft realms in order to protect the service and our players from the harmful effects of cheating.

We'd also like to take this opportunity to thank the community for their assistance in reporting suspicious behavior. Numerous account closures come as the direct result of tips reported to our GMs in-game or emailed to hacks@blizzard.com.

Moving forward, if you suspect that a World of Warcraft player is using an illegal third-party program to farm gold or items, or is otherwise violating our Terms of Use, please report the suspected infraction using one of the methods listed above. All reports will be investigated, and the appropriate action will be taken when warranted

We appreciate your support and wish you the best with your continued adventures in Azeroth."

Soon Blizzard is going to Ban so many that they will drops the monthly pay to very little from when there were hacks

Someone accused me of using a fish bot cos i wouldnt speak to them

Seems like every month they ban 60,000 accounts. But odds are 40,000 of those accounts belong to farmers.
As for the loss of gold. That sucks for them but it may help prices on certain servers to go down.

right now all the prices on my servers are dropping drasticly where something was once 50g its now 30g, My servers economy is excellent

Why is it that it is dropping if so many accounts are being banned don't you think the items they had went with it?
