Is it safe to buy LOTRO gold and does Turbine support it? Everyone is doing in and nothing has happened to them, at least nothing yet.
We all know that the mmorpg community are spending all their big bucks on virtual items and currencies. Lord of the Rings online is one of the newest mmorpgs out and many players are asking whether they will get in trouble in Turbine if they buy LOTRO gold from sellers. I believe selling gold, items, accounts and powerleveling should be legal, but that is just my opinion.
I would considered this to be another method of cheating for a game, I'm sure everyone likes to cheat in a game on way or another. If a player were to buy LOTR gold from another it can be considered as a transfer fee or payment for the time spent to collect that gold or item. As for other services such as powerleveling or buying some one elses account is like selling your game cartridge when you do not want to play anymore. Well, except for powerleveling which is a bit different. You are basically paying someone to play the game for you. I do not see the harm in that.
Many other players disapproves of the idea of this level of service but the fact is not many players have the money available to spend. Also into consideration is that they believe it destroys the fun of the game and what not. The only reason I believe it would destroy the fun of the game is because there may be an overcrowdness of playeres who only farms for the gold to sell and may disrupt other players from having a good time.
I believe this service is a great way of cheating and getting to the more enjoyable stages of the game. If Turbine should disagree with selling gold, accounts and what not I do not see what much can they do to prevent so from happening. At most they will ban your account but for them to provide proof that you had sent payment to another player to get acquire the gold is difficult. Thus, the only person they would probably ban would be the seller. They would never be able to kill the desire of another player wanting to buy and another willing to provide.
If other games such as EverQuest, Star Wars Galaxies and any games relating to Sony Online Entertainment supports the system then why shouldn't all mmorpgs as well? SOE has created a market place in which a player may auction their currencies to another player. In some ways, I believe the player has the right to sell their account if they no longer want to play. They purchased the game and played the time, if another player is willing to buy their game then its their right to sell since they are now the owner of that account.
