    Well it was always pretty obviously going to be against the rules and people were referring to it as the "black market" for a good reason. If he was really obvious enough to post something like that then clearly WGT were going to take action.

    That said as it's a new problem I think they could have had a quiet word rather than reaching for the ban stick.

    Yes, i would say he is getting hand slapped for sure. Players are on his profile asking for credits from a post i guess he made.

    Looks like that is frowned upon in this establishment, lol.

    He showed us a screen shot in Skype. Although not sure why it really matters to you.

    When was this supposed to have happened. He played today and added 1 friend.

    But one question. How was he supposed to sell credits. You can't gift credits.He might have  intended to lose MPC matches but  WGT  gets a fairly good sized chunk of those credits. It really makes so sense. There may be more a lot more to it that no one but Buggyyy and WGt knows.

    I haven't talked to Buggyy in a few days.  I know that he was working to get school straight and trying to get the tournament he started finished and paid out.  If he was banished for selling credits, then WGT should have at least warned him before doing it.  I realize that in the terms and conditions there is a provision to not do this but a simple warning is the way to handle this.

    I guess that it would be okay to just lose a game for 2000 credits since WGT gets their cut of that.   Anyway hope to see him back.

    Grey area to be honest as WGT encourages gifting equipment etc. You end up with creative payment systems more akin to the mafia where tournament "prizes" are 10 sleeves of balls but entry is very carefully restricted...

    WGT have somehow created an ingame credit laundering system.

    I mean I lost a Blitz game for 500C tonight. Does that mean WGT are looking at my account wondering why I'm "giving" credits to another player?

    Easy you put 2 bucks in a pay pal and they forfeit you 400 creds. You get double what u paid. But thats not what matters right now i want to know why the others were warned. I m on call with him now so i'm doing the talking for him right now.
