Go here and learn everything. Word needs to spread, and the more people that know, the better. Every signature counts.

BTW, the validity is solid. Petitiononline.com has worked for quite a few occasions.

Woot Woot... Number 218.

I don't expect s-e to do jack squat because of the petition since we've been complaining to s-e for the past year about gil sellers and nothing has been done besides fishing "fixes". But I signed it anyways and put some of the obvious gil sellers there. Also like how EVERY time someone posts a topic about it, someone has to pop on and ***** about it being a dead horse being beat and they rate it down. I got karma nuked to all hell last time because I told those people to start thinking and just ignore the threads if it really bothers them. Main reason why I don't bother posting often on the forums, too many people will nuke you because you have a geniune complaint which others will nuke your post out of the list because they didn't like it.

(edit) and for the people that think gil sellers don't hurt the economy or ruin people's gaming, go camp amemit and see how fast you get MPK'd by logitech's crew. I know it's not just their fault but we can't really hit people over the head with a hammer because they are willing to pay over 200% of the original price of sniper's rings or other gear that took a skyrocketing in price

rate up & signed

I'd like to believe that this could work, but am not really optimistic.

I signed though

Lal, unfortunately, that's human nature for you. :(

It's a constructive way to voice your dislike for the practice though, and while I have little faith in petitions getting something done, I do have faith in that it will help people who share the same feelings get a little more organized to find a good way of approaching a company for change. Even though it's a very, very long shot, it's still a better approach then the current let's get even with gil sellers approach which end up effecting many people's game experience.

I was thinking about it till I saw the whole thing about listing known gilsellers. I can't agree with that. Cause in all honesty, we don't actually know they are. We have little more than a very strong suspision.

Oh and then I saw the "Free Ipods" thing and that just made me want to sign it less. They could have done a much better job with this...

EDIT:: Notice how apparently Haggan closed the thread even saying it was a waste of time. I'll agree with him and say I'm quite sure SE knows all about the problem. But unless they can prove who the gilsellers are theres not much they can do.

Now they could go to the sites and buy gil and cancel the acct of whoever sends it to them. That's what I would do if I were them, but then again, I'm not sure if they could do that.

As Haggan Said, E-Sigs are Pretty Useless. If you were to actually get a Drafted Document, and Actual Real Human Ink Signatures, That would be more Moving.

Also, It's Legions more Work. I wish you luck, but in all honesty, the only real use from that list, would be Email Addy Harvesting / Data Mining :x

Yes there are many more out there but these are the main ones that are known on our server. Also none of the Mining, fishing (except for one group), etc.. bots are not listed because it is really unsure if the sell gil or they are just extra accounts people use to make some easy gil off of.

Just to clear things up about internet advertising. Just because they accept their money for banner space, doesn't mean they support the site. They may not scan their ad customers is all. I've seen many good sites end up with banner ads that they would be embarrassed to know they had on their site if an employee would have just taken the time to see where the ad revenue was coming from.
