Question Buying gold from gold companies

[UCHIHA25]

Is it easy to get caught buying gold from gold companies? i'm planning to buy gold but i'm not sure if they would figure it out and delete my account

Well most gold companies grind for their gold or is bought/sold by players ingame.
What i mean is that players sell their gold to some companies.

SOF GMs are looking more for artmoney users (hacks/bots/etc.) so its more likely that you wont get caught.

One thing i've learned from buying gold... (dont waste your $15 - $20 bucks on 100m gold...) its not worth anything and now its worse since all the items you will find in shops are really high rated... just because of gold buyers (they know some day a gold buyer player will go over their store and get 200m at once for a weapon).

What i recomend is if you are not happy with your original SOF character is to go on one of those private servers, where money and lvling is not a problem. You dont need to spend any money for an item in priv servers (i left sof a week ago and started on a priv server, and really i like the priv server (even with its bugs/outdated data) more than the real sof...)

No more long hours of leveling for a small exp % but 5-10 levels a day with high rated equips you´d never get in the real sof =.=

If you still want to buy gold online (there are some sites that their prices are overated... 20 bucks or more... look for those who sell for 8-15 bucks per 100m :)
Every time ask how they get their gold, ask if they use hacking tools and if they can ensure your safety (you're paying for their service so they must ensure this).


And yes its easy to get caught since they can log all the transactions, BUT there´s no way to get caught if you open a shop and sell x item since you are just vending and someone could just buy your item ¨accidentally¨ :)

Hmmm sounds like private server is fun but do a lot of ppl play? and TY for such a well explanation of gold buying

Well that deppends on the server. On its capacity and popularity.
If a server lags too much you will not find many people in there =] but if the hoster has a good server then you might find 15-30 people (more or less)

Most players are chinese atm since they started with this server thing :o
But im sure if we all get to work and translate (most) of the files + db there will be tons of english speakers in priv servers for sure ^^

Also about your question, i dont think servers have many people since the server files are still incomplete/buggy a bit too much. I havent had a server crash so far (thats good o.o!) comparing it to other games like ragnarok and tibia etc... wich their servers crash too often because of any typo in their scripts + any error you find ingame...

So i think sof servers are going really well ^_^

I will host my server in a dedicated server as soon as i get translated the database (and if i find a newer server version like 4.0...) ^^


Hope this answers your question =] *im not too sure of my answer but... its a good start xD*


Edit:
Thanks for the "thanked" thing btw xD im glad my answer was good enough for ya =]

So you know of English Pservers even though they use Version 2.1? .____.

Okay So I research sum gold sites and it looks like avg price for 100mil is $32, but the cheapest gold sites sells 100mil for $16 dollars.

I haven't found any $8 yet, but I'm looking for sum cheaper site so if you know any plz reply.

I've bought gold at $6 (100m) but that was time ago i think they got their prices up (where i used to buy it) now its at 20 dollars or something thats when i looked for cheaper ones. But well i think its not worth anything.

You know, when you get lv 60+ you can go to IP (ice palace) which is one of the best places to get drops from =.= so no need to buy any gold from these sites (its a waste of money i think :/) for it instead invite your friends to private servers where gaming is really free to play and not a hidden pay to play =.=
