yeah... better run the dungeon for a chance for a gold max q8 crysta - that would definitely be crackers!
i did not say that i have no motivation

Wouldnt call this the truth about prenerf anymore, as Gold OS Crysta, Krytan Axe and Serpent Axe (Tyrian) seem to drop from Varny in new Dungeon. Thread is to be updated.
i feel a lot less motivated to farm kilroy now

We haven't explicitly allowed anything. These are just people advertising something for trade.
We didn't prevent it [...]
not preventing it is allowing it, even if you dont explicitly state it. thats just arguing semantics at best
I hadn't considered that trades on Legacy carried any kind of legitimacy.
lol
This is just an advertising platform. In my mind posting on Legacy is no different to posting in Trade Chat in-game, it just offers a different format/platform.
i appreciate the laisser-faire libertarian attitude, but i think of Legacy like ebay or other online selling platforms that do tend to have some level of responsibility and don't just allow the sale of anything i.e. drugs. and the equivalent of the ingame chat would be a guy selling drugs on the streets.
its just an easy out and i don't think this would hold under scrutiny, we could probably find things that you would not want advertised if we searched hard enough.
also there are rules that can get you banned on this site, presumably because just posting anything could be a bad look for it.
btw. did guru allow anything?
Ultimately players can try and sell anything they 'have' in-game. If players don't want to buy it then they won't be able to sell it.
'having' the names in-game is already different than having items in the game, thats kinda the whole issue. you have the names on the account level, not on the character level like other things.
if i think this through to the end, selling game keys, accounts or bots could be allowed as well while we're at it

the seller could use an alt account too to grab his own name again no?
yeah, but he could only get his name back so he wouldn't win. arms would be with trade mod and returned to buyer because the afore agreed upon service hasn't reached the buyer.
ok true, if we take a 3rd party for granted.
the seller could get his own name back and then accuse the buyer of stealing it on an alt, and thus demand the money anyway and the trade mod could not know who has it. it is a whole can of worms...
-
That being said, I felt it is important that trades like this - that are going to happen anyways, whether we allow them or not - have a place to happen on. If we don't allow them, that doesn't mean that trades like this will not occur, they might just move to shadier places.
maybe they should move to shadier places
it is worse even: the buyer can scam everyone, the trade mod can scam anonymously, the seller alone can not really scam.
the seller could use an alt account too to grab his own name again no?

WHO TF IS THAT ???

It is the same as any other sale/trade in-game. No sales are guaranteed by Legacy it is all between the buyer and seller in-game and for them to work out.
As has been mentioned here, there's no simple way to trade character names. Probably why it's never come up before one word names were introduced.
Anything that is not traded through one action of Trade Window has a risk to go 'wrong'.
Nothing is stopping a trade moderator from doing the same thing, taking your items and armbraces. "Little to zero risk" doesn't exist, you're just hoping the trade moderator isn't having a bad day. Just like Bsoltan said, anything that requires two trades is always at the traders risk and it always has been. You are free to take the risk or not and participate in those sales or not.
except the sale of names has a risk that is completely different to selling a guild with a trusted third party. there are no random unknown accounts that can interfere with a guild sale with 2 parties plus 1 middleman. if somebody tries to steal something there is a loss of reputation because it can all be seen.
somebody could be creating a new character with a name thats being sold at just the right moment, without knowing of that sale. he has not made a deal with either party, does not owe anybody the name. sure it is an unlikely hypothetical scenario but its exists.
ANY account can take a name if the time is just right, people have brought up valid concerns above that can't be sufficiently explained away.
now take into account the amount of arms being thrown around for names, this is just begging for scam attempts AND people trying to snag names with good timing and possibly automated methods.
allowing this was poor judgment in the first place, the fact that it is 'allowed' gives these trades a seeming level of legitimacy that nobody can actually guarantee. so as soon as something goes wrong it makes legacy look bad. and even if there are no Terms of Service that could somehow be interpreted to forbid this (which i have not checked), i highly doubt that Anet likes to see this, given their history of making everything more accessible and less exclusive/expensive.

Accepting to new terms of services seems like a scam.
i dont know what you anglophone suckers agreed to, but i bet its pretty restrictive.
if your game is german though, we got lucky:
Display Spoiler

How did you get weapon trails to fly around like that?

Kinda crazy that it's permanent, but Jesus Christ would literally be against their prominent religious figures rule so that would be in violation.
there are blacklisted names that you can't use though, so if its not among them, a ban is maximally scummy
-
"Jesucristo" doesn't violate any naming rules
demons hate that name
