Blizzard Bans Gold Farmers

The word on the World of Warcraft Forums is that Blizzard recently banned over 1000 accounts because they have reason to believe that these players were collecting gold and game items to sell them for real currency. "After researching the situation, we have issued permanent suspensions to over one thousand accounts that have been engaging in this practice. We do not condone such actions and will take decisive action as they are against our policy and damage the game economy as a whole."
