Yes. It’s opportunity cost. The 8 days of getting to level 58 are a larger cost than the small amount for the boost. There’s also the fact they could easily make that amount of money back within 8 days.
It’s literally a small cost for a huge improvement to their money-making abilities. Remember, they don’t CARE how “long” something takes. They care how much it costs them, and losing 8 days to leveling is a huge cost.
Hi Ziryus. Nice to see another veteran of the AV threads.
As I stated previously, it takes weeks currently for the bots to make it back to 60. This is from the banwaves that have been going out on Pagle, and how long it takes for them to re-surface.
So, this 8 days takes into account the amount of time it currently takes, and also for the EXP nerf.
Why is this thread still up and why are y’all giving this any more traction? They don’t read, they don’t formulate points, and MOST of all is that they “never won” in WoW, so they have no idea what winning is! This has already been addressed! How can anyone listen to someone who can’t formulate strong points and just spew out a bunch of hypotheticals? Stop feeding the clown and have a laugh. Laugh at someone who still can’t do Naxx and we’re closing in on April and TBC! classic.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/whitemane/ratlord#
^ on a server that easily does it, so this is 100% a them problem.
To boil down the original argument, anti-boosters are trying to claim that boosters are going to increase botters or gold farmers. They are using the boosts in retail as their evidence, which is statistically and fundamentally wrong. For one, boosts in retail come in the form of a FREE boost with the purchases of the expansion, which is not the case in TBC. Also, boosts are unlimited in retail, you can purchase all the boosts you want from the in-game store, TBC will not be this way, you get one and only per account.
The two examples are completely independent of each other and cannot be used to assume any correlation between botters and gold farmers in TBC.
I have yet to see a valid argument supporting any negative game impacts based on the purposed TBC boosts. Any suggestions of botter or gold farmers is just “Fake News” and a scare tactic that has no defendable arguments.
Thanks for ignoring literally everything said and just saying “Nah, this isn’t true” with anything to back it up. To be clear, the restriction on “once per account” means nothing, as you can just… make multiple accounts.
