My advise if you trade gold to chinese guys: use guild bank but don't reinvite them 100 times instead promote them to guild leader (if trusted).
usually you get told what to do very clearly, good you got your gold sold before ban though... got 70k in my old banned account.
i agree that gbank trade seems to be more deectable in some ways, all of the guys i usally sell to are now saying to trade f2f with rnd lvl1 toon.
