Additionally, 24 hour bans were issued on multiple accounts found to have participated in the transfer of this illicit gold. Please understand that we will investigate all reports of illicit transactions and we will following up with the appropriate disciplinary actions, which could include confiscation of the resources in question, and ultimately banning accounts that sell or buy these illicit resources. In the future, if you are approached by someone seeking to sell you gold, you are asked to file a support ticket by typing /support in game, or by visiting our support site. Customers are encouraged to share as much information as possible, including the characters name, the server where this occurred, the time of the incident and any links they may have shared with you during the solicitation.

Well it didnt take long, the game has not even been released. It looks like some of the early bird players are trying to get a little real life gold by selling their booty online, to which Flying Lab are not to chuffed about. While I understand if it is a rule not to do this, but to say your protecting the economic features i don't get as like anything else the ingame gold value will sort itself out. It also gives a not so skilled player a bit of money to waste while the better players don't become Pirate kings. That's just off the top of my head, I'm not a MMORPG player so there might be some deeper meaning to not selling your stuff.
