Yeah, I’ve seen this type of thing before too: people that wanted an item that didn’t put in the effort to get it simply pretend they never wanted it anyway and then try to make up silly reasons to justify their stance.
I think that’s the great thing about WoW though: people who are lazy IRL can login and be lazy in game too. And people who put in the time and effort to get things IRL can log in and do that too. It’s such an inclusive game!
