Realms Faction mail

[Ojbreti]

Hello,i would like to suggest that you enable sending mail between alliance and horde,but only if the characters are on the same account,these days there are a lot of neutral AH campers that take people stuff,you can make this option for premium accounts only so it would inspire more people to donate and help the server,it would be very nice.

They have to block choppers and TOC25 gear that's limited to a faction but outside of that there's 0 harm activating this.

this use to be 1 of the premium perks if i'm not mistaken, that or it was a bug lol. but it was removed.

The premium perk was that you could whisper people of the other faction.

There was a bug that allowed you to mail anything to any character of your own account of the other faction as long as you attached a heirloom to the mail.

Yeah or they can change the item to appropriate version of horde side because they are identical,but yeah other than that there is no harm in doing this,both faction AH prices are quite similar so it can't be exploited to gain money,and it would make it much easier to send money to ur other faction chars because if you go on goblin ah it takes quite the cut off auctions.I guess we need someone from warmane to share their thoughts on this now.

There, you've got your answer why not to do this.
There's yearly gold cut and you want even less gold drain? Nope.

U have absolute,to absolutely no idea what ur saying mate,with all do respect,gold drain is ineffective,despite it happening every year item prices are still the same,because gold inflation is not a product of too much gold,but people stacking materials that are very easy to get compared to back in the day,take for exp how easy u can get to titanium ores and herbs,so if you want less gold around mby make less materials spawn,implementing this wouldn't make everyone rich and full of gold,it would make it easier for people to explore other faction as well and prevent AH campers from profiting off other ppl.I never suggested we shut down goblin AH as well,who wants to sell stuff there,please do so,but if all i want is to send few extra gold to my alt or some item like you send your alts from the same faction that you play,why shouldn't it be possible to do that to all alts regardless of faction.

More material in market means it will be cheaper. If you mine 1'000'000 titanium ores it doesn't increase gold amount on server in any way unless you vendor it. And yeah, gold squish is ineffective - but for another reason.

And enabling crossfaction mail will make inflation worse. Maybe for so little that it wouldn't matter, but still. I think the problem is something else - you can't send stuff to enemy, it is related to immersion and lore. I don't like this idea. What's next? You want to talk to enemy or live in their city?

[Zecarios]

It would be great, I started as Alliance and i want to send some gold to my new horde character, but I cant.

Well they're not going up, are they? If there was no drain they'd just keep on rising. They rise slowly, then they drop and so on. That's another topic.

But yes, factions are supposed to be the enemy, pick a side and stick to it.
