Why the hell would would i spend a month leveling a character that ISNT fun for me, When end game TOP TIER raiding is the only fun part of the game for me??? Especially after i’ve leveled dozens of characters over all the years. Thats ridiculous, There is ZERO wrong with me paying gold i farm for to someone boosting people up via dungeon farming. If my guild needs a specific meta class and spec, I should be able to go level one rather quickly provided i already have a max character and can farm the gold for it, You’re all just mad you dont raid, So you think “leveling” is the only content in the game, and want everyone else to be stuck doing that. The game has multiple aspects, Roleplay, Pvp, Pve, Leveling, Ect. If we wanna remove boosting to force people who prefer pve raiding, Or max level pvp, Then howabout we just remove leveling? We all start with max characters. No you wouldn’t like that because it would be taking something away from the game you think is great and amazing. Taking away a high end raid content clearer’s ability to have multiple alts for diff fights and raids is taking away something from them, Their ability to play the game and do as they enjoy. Mind your own business, Do your roleplays or questing or whatever you do, And let the boosters in their own channel do their own thing. Whats it have to do with you?
Blizz wants you to buy a boost and a couple more accounts.
Ill pay for my boosts with gold, That i farm, To real players, farming dungeons. Its purely to level alts so i wouldnt be stuck doing what i do NOT enjoy over and over, Just like some of the people begging for boosts to be banned wouldnt be caught dead in either a raid or a battleground ever.
Yeah you can’t even rfd anymore either as alternate leveling pathway. They got rid of that to so your only option is the paid boost if you wanna avoid the painful questing route for your Alts that you done a million times in the past. They really going all in on micro transaction boost
-
Those players aren’t real players. They play WoW to sell gold
-
Blizz wants you to pay them real money to skip leveling, rather than pay gold sellers
-
Blizz only wants gold sellers playing who buy boosts to bot, so they can ban them after a certain time period knowing those botters will buy another boost to bot.
According to some players and Blizz, if you are not leveling then you are not being social and playing the game correctly
Right, because it’s impossible for people in MMORPG to want to farm gold. You may as well say AH flippers aren’t real players and they play WoW to sell gold.
The hypocrisy of some people. These guys are mad about gold boosters but have no problem spending 50$ for blizzard version of boosting.
Maybe See I almost wonder if they’re when prepatches announced their desk going to remove the one per account restriction on the level 70 boost.
It is our business when boosting is so rampant it’s impossible to find a regular dungeon group. This is why Blizzard is taking action. Boosting was never this rampant back in the day. If it was, they would have taken action back then. This is a good change and long overdue.
Not only should boosting be banned, they should give a 6-month ban to anyone who has bought a boost within the last 6 months and rollback their character to level 1.
Maybe even reset their gold to zero. Odds are that boosties bought gold at some point too, since they like letting other people progress their character for them.
Well all it takes is a wailing caverns run for everything to be considered good
Why would you play the game?
Cancel your sub and play something else.
Candy Crush, or maybe Diablo Immortal might be more your thing?
Because most boostees aren’t farming their own gold. They’re paying for gold from an RMT service which is where your gold is sold back to after the run.
Yea, I’m going to go out on a limb and assume the Indonesian dude playing a cookie cutter mage with boe/gdkp gear doing nothing but selling boosts outside SP 24/7 is not just some regular dude playing WoW for fun, especially when the sub/time expense is more than most can afford in that country when they aren’t making money off it.
Have you guys actually been in any of these boost runs?
I did the last few levels on one of my most recent characters and the interactions were the same as dealing with an employee of a business.
You know how they stop and say someone else is taking over? That’s not their friend, it’s their coworker coming in for a shift change.
If pointing out some people doing boost are indonesian gold seller is a valid proof then i too can use US/EU players/streamers doing boost as counterpoint, heck the whole gold farming section of mage discord too.
Oh, it’s more than “some”. Closer to “vast majority”.
The vast majority of people gathering, mining, or open world farming are bot, mind you bot - not even normal people playing the game. Is removing gathering, mining and open world farming the solution or is it banning the bot?
Why would you level a class thats not fun for you?
IDK mate, you tell us. I don’t play classes/specs I don’t enjoy.
Nothing. Like, actually, nothing. But it has nothing to do with you because boosting is a heavy RMT dominated scene.
Do you know why we all have to wear seatbelts now? Because of a few that suffered consequences. Look it up. Seatbelt as a law is not that old in the US. So. because of those few tragic events, it became a requirement for everyone.
95% of laws are “written by blood”, meaning that something bad happened, and in order to prevent it further, law is passed to prohibit certain activities.
I understand the frustration, I really do. I’m just sharing the rationale behind it.
