GDKP banned in TBC: Blizzard claim

One key change announced by community manager Kaivax for TBC Anniversary realms is that GDKP runs will not be allowed on Anniversary realms in the NA and EU regions, in line with the policy applied on Season of Discovery realms.
This restriction does not currently apply to regions outside NA and EU, though Blizzard reserves the right to adjust this in the future. This is not the first time Blizzard publicly stated that GDKP is banned on Classic realms.
What counts as GDKP
Blizzard hasn’t published a detailed breakdown of every type of boosting act (dungeon carries, level boosts, PvP boosts, etc.) in this policy, so there’s some ambiguity in interpretation. Community discussions suggest Blizzard’s wording is being interpreted to mean:
- Any paid service (for gold) where one player advances another’s progress is treated as boosting and therefore prohibited.
Note
Blizzard hasn’t published an official follow-up clarifying individual vs. organization cases specifically for TBC Anniversary yet.
And that wraps up our article!
