Bruh you can't buy it from Blizzard obviously, lmao.
What I mean is that you can never stop people from paying guilds for carries, or for arena boosts. Every realm is "pay 2 win" and always has been.

But that's not what we're talking about here and Blizzard does monitor and ban people for carrys through content when done with out of game currency. There were some guilds at the end MoP that got banned for selling carries for cash. It's one thing to use in-game gold for a carry and another to use real money.
Also we are talking about selling items on a cash shop, right? I mean that was the point of your whole OP, right? Ragnaros was a complete **** storm at the end of Molten because if you were melee plate you had to have Shadowmourrne to get into a good icc group, you had to have upwards of insane gear scores to get into groups to fight the most basic of boss fights. I don't think Blizzard had ever intended for people to use gear score so poorly and its because of **** head abusing the hell out of GearScore that lead Blizzard putting in a LFR tool and there are a lot of players that hated LFR and quit over it.
Selling items on a cash shop is bad karma and it's been proven that it can be lucrative for mmo companies, but bad for subs as people don't wanna play in that kind of community. People seem happy on Lordaeron without being able to buy high tier items out of a CS and the population is booming, so what's there to change? Why add something that isn't being asked by many people?
Not to mention the people that wanna take the fast track to gearing and leveling get to play on a server all of their own. So it's a win/win, right?
