    Fresh account and risk of getting banned

    Hey there OC, I'm hoping someone that has experience in banned wow accounts can give me a bit of insight on my matter. I have sold about 20 mil gold at the end of wod, all of the gold was made legit through playing the auction house, garrisons and boosting for gold. I want to start fresh on a new account for Legion so that I do not eventually get banned for the gold selling. I do however have other games on my current battlenet that I'd still like to keep playing. My concern is that if I use the same PC to play other blizzard games on the old bnet and wow on the new one, even if there is no gold/items being traded between the 2 accounts I might still eventually get my new wow acc banned if the old one gets banned eventually.

    My thought is that since multiple people in a household can use the same computer it should be ok but nonetheless it'd be awesome if someone gave me some advice. Thanks in anticipation!

    This sounds like a totally legit story because people who get 20 million gold totally legit always get banned for gold selling.

    Here's a tip, no one can give you any solid advice when your post is just full of bullshit.

    I have no idea why anyone would think I'm bullshitting to get an answer when it comes to something like this, if you don't believe a goblin can manage to make 20 mil in 7-8 months of Warlords idk, maybe you haven't played the expansion.

    Anyway thanks for the useless reply

    I didn't say you couldn't make that, I'm saying if you made it legit why would you think you would get banned for gold selling?

    It takes more than just making a ton of gold to be banned for gold selling. They don't just ban people for lots of gold.

    I know lots of people that were gold capped

    Unless you were doing something suspicious then you have nothing to worry about. The fact that you are posting here on a forum known for RMT, hacking, and botting saying that you are legit is pretty suspicious in itself.

    That's why I'm saying you're full of shit.

    Dude he has already admitted that he SOLD the gold - hence why he would get banned for gold selling................read the post before making yourself look foolish

    "I have sold about 20 mil gold"

    Anyway - to OP, you'll be fine - they only ban accounts that benefited directly from the offence (this is based on many people's opinions and experience, Blizz do work in mysterious ways though so could change their policy on this) - they wouldn't want to lose a legit sub

    Thanks for the input, I am most likely going to make a new account under the name of a "spouse" of my original one. Most people would probably still keep playing on the original account but I'd rather play the game safe, and maybe in a year or next expac ill liquidate again. It's my impression that this is the safest way to do it without someday getting ban hammered out of the blue and lose everything.
