Let me put it this way. Those accounts pumped gold into the realm. You guys can add up how much gold they accumulate right?
Maybe, maybe not. There are not a lot of records kept of that kind of thing. There are ways to make approximations, but they may not be reliable.[/quote]
You can then deduct that from the realm right?
You can't deduct gold from a realm. You an only deduct gold from characters. Doing that would entail removing gold from players who haven't done anything wrong. We don't punish players who haven't done anything wrong.
