    Re: Research Scam

    I guess it's bannable, since you pretend to be a student on one of the finest universities in england.

    However, how could blizzard entertainment check that? Only by looking at your account information, where you've written where you live, etc.

    Re: Research Scam

    Could work for me since I live in London (to what sum1 said about blizz checking personal info), and I can speak fluent English like a university proffessor when I feel like it (I get A's and B's in college history and English :P).
    Could work, but then u get reported for not returning the gold, and that means u did lie and can get banned. -_0

    Re: Research Scam

    even if it's not oxford, just say you belong to whatever university is in/near the town you live. i like this idea though, especially the refunded part. that seals the deal for sure. +rep for you

    Re: Research Scam

    +rep, good idea, btw isn't oxford in Paris too? I know that was like one of the first Universities(just wondering XD)

    Add: now that I think about it, you can get banned, not for impersonating a student, but if you dont refund the gold

    Re: Research Scam

    sounds like a very good idea, very original too, although i think all that Richard would find out would be that no, people dont trust other people, and with good reason xD
