If you main just one character and don't really bother pimping out your alts, gold is never an issue. You can pretty much survive on WG quests and 1-2 dailies alone.

You have to understand that people with many alts and specs to bring to around level 258 (PVP and PVE)  on itemization and enchants won't feel the same way.

Server's down and I can't figure out why my gfx card is making a racket with the fan. Stupid Asus SmartDoctor software doesn't seem to control the fanspeed itself.

I was going to make a new bank alt and transfer my gold over but since I was suspended earlier, I ticketed a GM to make sure I wouldn't set off any red flags.

Here's what happened

And it's not real life money.

Twice I've been banned in 3 weeks for making ingame gold the legal way.
First time they think I am selling gold
Now they think I am buying gold!

I'm thoroughly pissed. There is this aussie guy who buys and sells by five digit numbers and he never gets banned.

Has anyone else been getting such unfair treatment?

Thank you for contacting the World of Warcraft Game Master Department.

1. What did I do this time that was causing my account to be
flagged..........again? If I don't know, I can't fix it or change my
it so it won't happen again. I don't want to be suspended again two
months later for another "random" incident.

>>  Our system does look for foreign IP addresses, large amounts of gold being transferred and/or deposited into Guild banks

2. FWIW, does my account have a clean slate now?
>>>There are currently no “strikes” on your account

3. Your billing department said I was "whispering people about wow
gold buying websites" around 4am pacific time on the 25th of November.
If I am not mistaken, I was in Wintergrasp at that time or had just
finished it and was back in Dalaran. For the next few hours, I wasn't
"kicked" from the game, so that means no one else was attempting to
hack or steal my account or had control of my account at the same
time, right? So if I did say something that can be taken to be
encouraging gold buying/selling, can you please tell me what it is? So
I can avoid doing the same thing again.
>>> I am unable to verify that

4. Is my use of a tunneling service contributing to these
misunderstandings? I occasionally log in from different IPs on the
tunneling server when my local ISP is acting up and giving me 2k in
game latencies. This means I will sometimes use the Malaysian,
Singaporean or even occasionally, Los Angeles based tunnel servers to
connect.
>>> The Tunneling service will certainly flag your account for investigation as it uses Asian IP addresses

5. Is it because I have too much gold in my account (300k-ish)? Or
because I send gold to my own toons on my own account? Or because I
occasionally sell stuff for the guild and deposit the returns in the
guild bank?
>>> Combined with the foreign IP addresses, it does seem to be a gold seller’s account at first glance. But only at first glance, which is why we reverse any actions taken.

6. Was my account flagged due to an automated process? Or was it due
to me being "reported" by fellow game players? If it was due to in
game "reporting" by fellow players, may I know which toon was the
offending one?
>>> I am sorry but our internal processes and customer identity are confidential and we will be unable to share that information
