This means you can't write about doing it in world chat, normal chat, faction chat, EPW forum, EPW discord, EPW facebook etc.Now you can also tell staff if you sold or bought accounts without worrying about ban. If you didn't scam anyone then you won't get banned.Players who were banned before this rule change won't be unbanned.Problem with account/items selling is that people often get scammed, that's why it can't be done in public; trades must be kept as low as possible to reduce the amount of scams.
