Redditor AttitudeAdjuster_ has shared a link to a google.docs document on the WoW Reddit forum that purports to show that boosting communities are still active in WoW.

Even though Dawn is "only boosting for gold", the following screenshot from a former Discord community employee is said to show that the Dawn community owner has been doing real-money trading by buying WoW tokens with gold and then using Blizzard credit to get two-month Gametime gift codes. He is said to have used other people to buy these Gametime codes, so he is not said to have been personally involved.

Other top WoW guilds may continue to use this service. There is effectively no other way to raise the dizzying sums of over 500 million gold. Whether this will have consequences for Method is questionable. Even when Echo's raid leader Scripe admitted to trading real money for gold in the Race to World First in Ny'alotha
