There are many avenues of making gold other than primal farming. Some classes will be able to make more than others, that’s just a product of their choices. If competition is killing you, find something else to do to make gold. It’s not that hard. There are a ton of ways to make gold out there, you don’t have to follow the mainstream guides to do so. AH Flipping is a potential avenue, but not the only one. The yield you can bring in per hour normally falls on the choices you made along the way(Class, Spec, Server, Professions). So don’t be upset that you went the way of the masses and can’t be competitive.
I don’t think I’m upset?
I got my epic flying and most of my stuff has enchants gems, etc. Life is good.
I see the issue now, you thought I was replying to you with my original comment. Carry on good sir, carry on.
Yes and No, most of those pvp parse addicts wouldn’t do it at all if they had to manually farm all the materials required to do so. During P6 when everyone was pushing through Naxx, I’d say 70% of the entire playerbase clearing Naxx was doing GDKPs to make gold at higher rate than anywhere else or outright buying gold. All of that excess gold injected into the market came from RMT in some way
All mana thistle locations on my server have 2 to 3 people just floating there on their flying mounts timing the respawns. Doesn’t matter what time of day you go, they are always there

Right, so to be fair, we’re both ignoring facts, correct?
You’re ignoring that the TOS is being broken by tens of thousands of bot accounts that ruin the economy, and I’m ignoring that I could change the way I played in the original TBC to compensate for the tens of thousands of bot accounts that are ruining the economy.
Thanks for playing mate. Can’t tell if you’re trolling or not, that’s how logical your perspective is.
I’ve acknowledged several times in here that yes, I could spend a lot more time on World of Warcraft, have more alts, have professions that synergize, all that lovely stuff-- but I shouldn’t need to. I shouldn’t need to. I never did back in the day, and I wouldn’t at the moment if it wasn’t for the influence of the bots.
I’ve also acknowledged that prices in general fluctuate throughout expansions, but not as much as we’ve seen here. The thing is, we can argue about the specifics all day long. None of us truly know with certainty-- but to imply that tens of thousands of bots don’t effect an economy? That’s something we can argue about, and that’s something I can speak to with absolute certainty. It’s about as difficult a concept to understand as 2 + 2 = 4. It’s basic math.
Post from your Herod character then.
Yes, yes, people have already suggested “Spend hundreds of hours to be able to make Gold because Blizzard is allowing people to blatantly break TOS”.
Do you have anything original to add to the conversation? No? Best of luck to ya mate.
Another “Spend hundreds of hours to circumvent Blizzard refusing to enforce their TOS” argument. Yawn.
Spent hundreds of hours to farm gold because Blizzard won’t enforce their TOS, expects others to do the same. Yawn.
They don’t lower the prices of absolutely everything, but a huge portion of items. So while the cost of many things goes down, which on the surface might feel nice, there are still many things that aren’t effected. It creates an unrealistic economy. There are things such as Epic Flyers, which others will argue is countered by them stating that you have 5000g after questing a toon, which isn’t true, but they will say it anyways. I mean, it’s almost true if you level strictly inside of dungeons and save every quest for when you hit 70-- but it’s still not true. You still don’t have 5000g even if you level in that very specific way.
And this is just a comment to people in general; everyone promoting leveling an alt strictly for gold purposes, I wonder what percentage of them simply paid real life money to boost those alts of theirs. How different is that, really, if their goal is to make gold, how different is it from straight up buying gold from Blizzard… I played TBC with one toon. I never struggled for gold. Although to be fair, I wasn’t a healer back then.
What are you even trying to argue.
I thought the inflation would kill us all.
Weird.
Well, it is possible, maybe you have to re-evaluate your strategy.
What professions did you chose? Maybe the problem is just right there.
I agree. It is not the same experience. It is a new experience. Deal with it.

There is a video of the fact they did remove bots this week during down time.
I’m sure they will be back but I’m hoping they keep on banning ona more regular basis
As i have said over and over. Bots only affect player to player costs.
Of course bots affect the economy. Anyone that doesnt know that is pretty slow. But they dont affect it any differently than a real player does. Replace a bit with an actual player and anything the player farms has the same affect that the bot farming it does
Bots are automated. They are cheating. Thats why the need to be banned. Not because of the economy.
I mean, feel free to read the rest of my comment. I sort of explained it in the following sentence.
You’re ignoring that Blizzard is allowing people to break TOS, I’m ignoring that I can spend a ridiculous amount of time to compensate for Blizzard allowing people to break TOS.
The two things aren’t the same.
Sorry, I’m not going to “deal” with Blizzard refusing to enforce their TOS. If you’re just “dealing” with it then yeah, this is why Blizzard treats us this way.
They know that most of the people that still pay subs have absolutely no standards and will accept basically anything that Blizzard throws at them.
I mean jeez, feel free to disagree with me, but you’re really here, spending your time fanboying for Blizzard and telling people that they shouldn’t be holding Blizzard accountable for this stuff? You are almost as bad as the botters in my opinion, and I don’t care how that sounds. The people that just stand idly by are pretty bad, but the people that actively go out of their way to tell others that they shouldn’t complain about stuff that no one in their right mind thinks is acceptable… I mean… To each his own I guess…
I thought bots were a bad thing until I read the responses to this thread. Thanks guys, you’ve really opened my eyes. Bots are actually good!
lol e-economists
