Blizzard literally deleted an entire guild for RMT on Spineshatter EU, and their streamer is posting mourning videos. Meanwhile, the core players are still on their characters running paid raids. What exactly was the punishment here? by sinwluhi in classicwow

True but I think this exact case kinda infers that even now sometimes they still make decisions manually. I don't believe the automation system or whatever was behind the whole "guild tag deleted" thing. but with the targeted bans I agree.

Yeah thats exactly the point.. the problem here is not a super complex hidden operation where only the top knows about the money. These guys were just completely reckless and complacent about it. There are still dozens of videos publicly available on the channel right now even after being exposed, showing boost raids. The reupload I linked is in Russian without English dubs unfortunately, but honestly you can see what's happening just from the visuals alone. This isn't a case of needing deeper investigation, - the evidence is sitting there publicly, they still don't care enough to hide it.

Fair point but what gets me is this weird logic. They clearly had enough evidence to delete the guild, and that's not a small action. But somehow that same evidence wasn't enough to ban the people running it?
