Blizz scammed me again

[Koosta-arugal]

It is a scam if he cant play the game if THERE ARE NO PEOPLE TO PLAY WITH. Open your eyes.

Its blizzards responsibility to fix these servers and not milk customers with paid transfers.

@Sur-kromcrush

I will pay for your server transfer if you never post on the forums again.

Man, if this worked, I’d be out of pocket by a dozen service payments and happy for it.

He can. Rerolling on another server is free. Transfers are available. And the game is completely playable. It’s the self-created expectations that are causing a disappointment.

@Ultrakill-atiesh

so with all the server transfer hype, i re-subbed thinking that population might be a little better.

i was wrong, and after some back and forth with support they basically told me to go eat dirt they were keeping my money even tho the game cant be played.

how is this even legal? needless to say i wont be transferring (already transferred twice due to server deaths)

how many others have experienced the same?

So now for my 15 dollars, i can basically do battlegrounds, or single player content. theres nothing on the AH so cant even buy new pvp gear because there arent enhancements for it.

TBC sucks because they refused to make very simple changes to honor gains and made cringy changes to arena. PVP is a burning dumpster fire.

There’s no scam here.

Says every politician . The best scams are always legal,

Blizz can’t fix the problem because its a player made one.

You’re not purchasing access to people to play with.

Being ignorant of the law doesn’t make something a scam, just makes you ignorant.

Blizz can’t fix the problem because its a player made one.

But when players ask for solutions like LFD/R, the players staunchly opposed to these features are tying the company’s hands; so Lizzy can fix the problem, but they are refusing to do so out of preference for whatever player demographic they wish to favor…

namely yours.

A scam is a dishonest scheme and not always illegal or a crime. I think what you were trying to say was, “Ignorance of the law is no excuse.” Also I do think OP’s post was a hyperbole and that hypercritical monologues about legal semantics and reading tos is a bit pretentious and callously disconnected from his plight and comes off as mere posturing and puffing up your ego. That’d just my 2 cents

There are lots of reasons to lay blame on from boosting, to paid transfers onto mega servers. One thing for sure is that the player that stayed on the server is not the cause. That player is the victim of the problem.

Sir this is a wendy’s can I take your order?

@Rallyna-mankrik

It’s their fault the players have free will and all lumped together on a few high pop realms? So you would really be happy with them if they decided to not let you choose a server?

I’d like a big Mac and onion rings pls.

I’m not saying your wrong at all, it was a problem created by players migrating off the media pop servers to mega servers. But they were allowed and encouraged to do so by blizzard, You can’t tell me that Blizzard didn’t predict this and knew that unrestricted transfers from low to high would only escalate the process and basically ignored it knowing it would create more revenue from transfers, voluntary and under duress. Legality aside it’s pretty low and grubby even for blizzard.

you can reroll on the big server and enjoy the leveling experience, then the endgame.

p.s.“scam me twice, shame on me…”

[Darklion-whitemane]

I do not understand how anyone intelligent would offer a “tough cookies” toned comment on this issue. The OP presents a more-than-reasonable complaint, especially considering that this game is approaching 18 years old. I have four accounts and several of my kids were very engrossed in the game. Now no one wants to play because the Alliance/Horde ratio is so lopsided on our realm (Whitemane) that Alliance is essentially dead. And this after we transferred all our characters off Rattlegore, which was also dead, to Whitemane, because it was healthy (then). Sure, it’s just four accounts and it won’t hurt Bilzzard all that much when they’re canceled, but why not care? That’s what I don’t understand. Either way, I’m not going to fund the transfer of dozens of characters (mains and alts) from one “full” realm to another. So Blizzard is essentially saying to me, “Go ahead… cancel those four accounts. We couldn’t care less.”

I am right there with you, OP; it’s utterly absurd that this issue still exists.

I wish there was an ‘excessive cryin, pissin, and moanin’ report button I could hit for these posts.
