We faced a 2,6k team as a 2k team the other day because the other team boosted a rogue with 0 MMR. We all know the guilds who boost (hi @ owl streaming rbgs at twitch with his guild on Outland!), but Blizz doesn't care :P

Make best PvP gear free, PvP should be focused on skill and balance, so everyone gets best gear they could get on fresh 85's... now arena/rbgs would be just skill-fest cause you get 0 rewards for being 2.9k or 1.6k rated...

It would kill all the botting, all the wintrading/boosting, all the afk'ers all the issues with fresh 85's with no gear...

As long as there will be gear with rating requirement, there will be boosts/win-trades with irl money...

And as long as sitting in bg's doing nothing or being bad you get rewarded, the botting will still persist...

Sure, add a npc with free hm gear and i'll approve

Dear Blizzard,

Would it be possible to stop the RBG boosting going on currently?
What is happening is that 2.6k RBG players are being paid IRL money (usually ~100 euros) to play on other people's accounts to 2.2k or Hero of the Horde.
This has caused a huge backfire in the ratings.
I play a legit 2.4k team with 2.4k players, however we keep meeting teams with ~2300 mmr with 1-2 players with 2.6k rating and the rest low mmr chars played by the friends of those 2.6k rating players, and we then proceed to lose -20 against them, really tanking our rating. This night we have played 4 games, of which 2 were boost teams and last week we faced the same boosting team 3 times in a row aswell.
Overall this has costed us -100 rating rating.
I know this is against the ToS and just looking at a single night of RBG will easily identify the culprits so you know how to ban them.
I know for a fact that a huge load of yäspresents people are involved in this scheme


Lol, wut. Good joke.

Yet it's true. Maybe not 100 euros, but I've seen people pay 50 euros to get 2.4~k

Seems my post was removed because I actually showed up the real prices of RBG boosting, but it's 4-6 times higher than your 100 euros. :[

No idea where the hate against ZAO is comming from, but as far as I can tell my guild has never boosted anyone in RBG (we carried a couple of people though, like you unfrozen), however lets keep it civil and try to get blizzard to ban the boosters please

Wouldn't you earn more by selling the account someone gave to you to play for them?

Just curious.

(Cuz, you know, that's what I'd do if I were them :P)
