World of warcraft does in fact have a maximum amount of gold you can carry.

For those of you who get confused by this post, it's not a keylogger.

Q u o t e:
I have wonderd this myself. So around 215,000g is the limit. HOW IN THE HELL did you make 215,000g. Thats enough to buy 43 people epic flying mounts.


He the guild leader of the best guild on the server (and in the top 10 worldwide)

The guild sells all there SSC/TK loot to buyers every week and that brings in thousands a week. In fact guild members who do these SSC/TK gold farm runs get 500g a week just for helping.

Then why does it say "At gold limit" when someone traded him gold?

Judging from his chatbox ("Trade again, I'll screenshot it"), I would deduce that 'At gold limit' is the error message that pops up when you can't accept any more money.

Wasn't this posted weeks ago (only without the screenshot)?

The gold limit was determined to be 214748g 36s 48c, which is 2^31...

Since you didn't notice, he was responding to the person who was suggesting that they had faked their gold total with the /script command.

It is the limit it makes perfect sense, gold is measured in copper and the copper limit is 2147483648, or as you saw in the picture 214748 gold 36 silver 48 copper. (picture had a little less)

This is 2 to the power of 31, which is an signed int32 basically + or - 2,147,483,647, but honestly because this value is used for money they really sure of used an unsigned int and effectively raised the gold cap to 4,294,967,296 copper without changing space requirements.

It is not optimized coding, but honestly most coders would of done the same thing because we are used to using int32 which is signed by default. But now that a legitimate player has actually reached the gold cap, I would imagine that they will revisit the code and change it to an unsigned int32.

Welcome to computer programming have a nice day.
