    Keep in mind we don't always see the final price something sells for.
    The name of the game right now appears to be volume. The people I suspect are making a profit are the resellers that buy low and sell high(er).

    But that's besides the point, what was this thread about again? :)

    The gold coins....
    I got a perfect solution!
    If Port would be able to manage the item Decay that way that the average player would need 5 GC a month.... We would be at a 5usd subscription Level!
    I guess everybody could deal with that.
    If not, he/she shouldn't waste their time with games and get a job.

    I disagree.

    Far be it from me to patronise you. But please allow me to suggest a few rules for a productive discussion:

    (Source: abc news forum)

    Atogrim, please note Rule no . 3.
    My former post was related to Rule no. 1.

    No offence intended. I am convinced that there are many community members here who value manners and respect.

    Oh i am sure there are.
    Most of them just stop Posting ages ago. Like myrcello or Themo or Envy.
    I may not be as prominent as they are but I am non the less thinking about leaving this forum for good.
    Far too much Drama for my taste.
    And we all pretend to be oh-so-adult players.

    I'm sorry I will read your posts now (well maybe lol).......back home from work, you were actually providing the entertainment for the afternoon in the office.........congratulations :)

    In general terms you are taking a very broad brush approach and making lots assumptions on how people exchange goods and whether they make money or not. At the same time you are very specific that you don't like gold sellers and they obviously don't pay any tax and will report them accordingly blah blah blah.

    Truth is many people who sell items (including gold) do it as part of their hobby and (depending on tax laws of the country) may or may not have to pay tax on that. On the other hand if it's set up as a company (as i'm sure once they move past the hobby point they are) they will submit accounts and pay tax accordingly...........in many cases they probably won't be paying tax because they are highly likely to be a loss making company.

    Anyway feel free to contact Interpol :rolleyes: as you see fit in order to report people based upon assumptions with no evidence.

    In the meantime please continue being you............you are highly amusing (despite this I am a little bored of you now.......your entertainment value diminishes over time).

    I still standby what I said before:
    Anyway ta ta.

    HMRC...seriously I thought you would know more about how this works...

    Takes a couple of minutes to fill out the form and attach a screenshot. Set it and forget it.

    I am when people don't pay taxes on all of their income.

    Like I said before, can't stop gold sellers, but you can make their lives miserable. It's a fun mini-game I like to play.

    Most of the people here in the far S/E of Asia... if you look really close you can see it in the picture.... even though that monitor is filthy,
    "They will keep that new out of the box plastic sheet wrap covering all over it until that monitor dies!"
    When I first bought my current monitor, I immediately took off all that protective wrapping...
    And my GF thought I was crazy, >--->>>"because it keeps it new"<---<<<

    So you report people for not paying taxes despite the fact they probably do.

    You really are a nice guy aren't you <sarcasm as @DepGames didn't get it last time>

    To each his own I suppose. I like to chase hot women, go outside, read interesting articles, or pretty much do anything that keeps me from communicating with a government entity but not everyone can be a true hero for his fellow man by policing the gold trade through ratting them out to worldwide taxing authorities.

    Not for me to decide. Remember the golden rule...

    Once a cheater, always a cheater.

    I hate gold sellers with a passion. Personal agenda of mine.

    A lot of government agencies are my customers so it doesn't bother me at all since I communicate with them daily already.

    OMG! :eek: "I'm now a cheater?" :(
    ~OK, Just So I Get All This Gov Internet Assets Tax Thing Strait~
    So, should I now be withholding 15% to 20% of my SOTA hunted up income because it's now a real world monetary income?
    I mean... "the last thing I need is to get PKed by the IRS and my in game house repo'ed just because I didn't pay enough taxes" :eek:!'
    And what about all the in game taxes I pay on my in game properties, is that now all real world tax deductible?
    OMG! I wonder if the IRS did my tax assessment before or after the last wipe? :confused:
    I'm so confused now... o_O

    Do you run a site where you're selling gold. If so then 'yes'
    Are you buying gold from someone running a gold selling site? If so, then 'yes'.

    Pretty simple, really.
