No one is “punishing you” for anything.
Those of us who were on the original 6/12mo plans were already incentivized with a mount…actually two if I remember correctly.
This mount and pet are for NEW recurring cycles…
So you can go ahead and renew now if you want the mount/pet. thnx.
If only I could use the pet but I don’t play classic. I love my new flying carp thing!
Fun fact. The Preorder beetle has been bugged for ages and deletes geometry off itself when you zoom out.
I wonder if this new mount will lose a few appendages at some point.
Except if you are on the 12 month plan and DIDN’T cancel, you’re still on the same plan and you get the mount.
They are indeed punishing us for cancelling the plan within the first 6 months.
You will not change my mind on this. They are actively punishing people who have bad memories and can’t leave things on auto renew.
As I said in the CS forums, this isn’t the same thing as the last 6 month mounts, because this is the first time there’s been a 12 month sub. You are comparing apples to oranges in this case.
It makes sense to require an active 6 month sub when the only option is 6 months. But when there’s an option for 12 months and I still have 5-6 of those months left - it shouldn’t be required that auto renew is still on. period.
So I have a problem with your rules Blizzard, I still have over 6 months left on my 1 year sub and while I did turn off the automatic renewal what would it have mattered? I could have cancelled the day before and I would have still received the mount. This is unfair and I should receive said mount.
Will only receive with " 12-month recurring subscription with a future renewal date "
Again, this is the issue.
We bought the same exact thing as the people who are getting the mount for free from the 12-month sub.
But we’re being treated like second-class players because we have the foresight to cancel our subscriptions so we aren’t blindsided by a random $150 charge a year later when we forget about it. (And AGAIN, a lot of people have memory problems, this is quite literally an ableist policy, as you’re targeting people with bad memories who make adjustments [aka cancelling auto renewals asap to cope with it].)
If we had left the sub active until today then cancelled it today - we’d still get the mount and be in the same exact situation.
Please fix this. This is not fair in the least.
This seems backwards. If you had a bad memory, wouldn’t you forget to change from auto renew. You’re forgetting not to change it?
…no? I have a horrible memory, so I cancel every single auto renew I ever do immediately.
Because otherwise I will forget and it will come out when I am not expecting it, and as someone on a very limited income, it can screw me over and literally make me not have food for a few days.
And something like the 12 month sub coming out would literally make me not have rent money.
When you have a bad memory, you cancel things like auto renew immediately, otherwise you end up regretting it.
And for the record, I’d have zero issue if this was strictly a 6-month sub mount and was not given to any 12-month sub people. But they gave it to 12 month sub people who didn’t cancel.
Which is completely unfair to those of us that cancelled for reasons like bad memories.
BTW it does go faster in water it’s an ATV mount.
There are numerous tools available for you to use if you are having trouble keeping track of subscriptions. There are calendars available in physical and digital forms. There are Post-It notes you can stick on your monitor. Blizzard has plainly stated the terms if you want the incentive.
sweet I’ll have to jump on and try mine out!
Hold up there Fuzzbutt. You’re telling me the fish is a better ATV than the actual ATV mount is?
Tools existing doesn’t make a policy not ableist.
This is like telling someone in a wheelchair that there’s tools to help them get up stairs, so a building doesn’t need a ramp.
Stop. You have already attacked me in the CS forums. I’m blocking you.
Lol maybe it is 100% swim speed / ground speed then 310 flight speed.
It also appears to benefit from mount equipment.
Awesome! A true all-terrain mount that resists dazing! Woohoo!
Least as far as I can tell that is.
It appears I need to leave the Dragon Isles to “verify” these claims and not totally have fun whatsoever. Nope.
Lol right yeah it would be cool if it was a dragon riding mount but it sadly isn’t.
Respectfully, this is a little on the non-sensical side in my opinion.
Nowhere have I “attacked” you.
…Fuzzbutt, why? Why would you?
Now I’m going to cry in a corner as I realize I can’t use this in the Kalimdor cup
