Do blizzard want us to buy gold?

Damn. It’s very possible I accidentally logged on to different servers than you did. That is distressing because that’s a lot of time I’ve wasted if so.

My friends are all at work or doing irl things right now and I am sitting here in discord alone chilling (time zone issue) and watching the bots pass me by. You can join and I can stream it if you want.

you are probably horde that defends the bots… maybe they are your bots

Blood elves are in TBC

It was a joke and meant to be taken without wearing a tinfoil hat.

You can’t quest in the window between events?

you mean the 45m before everyone is setting up for the next one?

I don’t know about a literal connection but scuttlebutt is that Blizzard is planning to divest some of their properties. Some folks feel that the plan is complete monetization of wow like you see in “freemium” games.

Just people talking and we know how people love to talk, but this is actually logical and fits with the way corps work and how they can capitalize on a product like WOW at this point in its product life cycle

Thank god this will be fixed on Monday for you, mounts half prices and more gold from quests while leveling. This thread is now irrelevant you should close it Mimco.

Who cares if groups are positioning themselves? The even hasn’t started so just do your own thing.

This is very true, but it feels kinda scummy when it is applied to a video-game/franchise. There’s alot of selling out that blizzard has done over the years and Classic was largely free of that outside of RMT purchases made outside the game like gold buying that are against terms and services, but something like Réstéd-XP Is not considered taboo regardless of the fact that you’re paying for a service to give you an edge in the ^ game that someone who did not pay would not have.

Again, by normal standards this wouldn’t be a problem and there isn’t exactly anything inherently wrong with making a guide and expecting people to pay you for your work but in this particular case it feels scummy because the context is an entire virutal world where people invest a lot of time and effort into.

It is a concerning trend within the industry. Your feelings are spot on.

It is a bit dramatic but this is the source of my information and speculation.

It’s never too late in life to learn how to manage your gold…

But sometimes you can’t help coming back to the wow forums

It was meant to say 4 characters to level 40. My point however, still applies.

nailed it.

This is it and yes, blizzard wants you to buy gold if you don’t realize that you are living under a rock. If they actually cared, they could get rid of all GDKP and make all GEAR BOP

They want you to take your time, cultivate an experience, and feel accomplished with your investments.

In what sea do you see water passing by water?

Yes and yes
