There are some very angry players in World of Warcraft right now because they have been banned from playing their accounts because they participated in a scheme to get more gear than other players by trading items within the game when they shouldn't have been able to share gear. Some of the players have decided to sell World of Warcraft account because they feel that they shouldn't have been banned for such behavior, but there have also been a lot of players who have simply apologized for their actions and have attempted to get on with their gaming lives.

What many gamers don't realize when they purchase Warcraft or other MMO games is that they are designed to work in tandem with smaller programs created by fans of the game. These small programs are called add-ons help players to enjoy the game better and are many times a type of convenience program. Often when a player decides to buy WOW accounts, they will have to make sure all of their add-ons work properly. For example, one add-on allows a player to see how much damage they have done to in-game creatures. Another tracks the progress of quests undertaken and completed.
