Gnomes should get 80% discount on all carries because we are light and therefore easier to carry!

Heās a super nice guy, and an exec who actually participates in the game the company makes instead of spending all day on a golf course is a good thing. Why must you kvetch about everything?
Itās hot garbage posting like this that makes everyone even remotely meaningful aggressively avoid these forums.
Congrats, OP, you made me pause my Biker Mice From Mars marathon to type this.

Paying in game currency for an in game service provided by players in game that doesnāt effect other peoplesā in game experience.
āBut what about tokens, Quen? Tokens arble garbleā
Who am I to judge what people spend their own money on? Especially when it doesnāt make any impact on the game other than maybe a few fancier pixels that will be replaced in a few months.
Wanna know what else is hot garbage?
Shadowlands and the current state of WOW.
Link to your source. Does that mean you are not even āremotely meaningfulā? And how does someone āaggressivelyā avoid reading a forum? Who are you assaulting in the process? Your post makes zero sense.
Wow is a living economy, just because you cant understand how it impacts something doesnt mean it doesnt impact anything.

True for PvE, not true for PvP.
Players buy boosts for their 1800 - 2100 PvP gear then sit at 1400 - 1600 rating globaling players trying to gear up and climb legitimately, itās sad.
My Rogue is BiS for PvP but heās been gearing since launch. I refuse to make an alt and play through this garbage.
& itās not a skill gap, my Rogue can 1v3 pretty legitimate players simply because of a gear gap. Thereās no outplaying when youāre outgunned.
Itās not difficult for a negative IQ booster geared player to press convoke or combust/wing someone off the data server.
Two weeks after Korthia release I just stopped playing. The sexual harrassement suit pushed me off the fence to unsubbing, but when the time came of last day I resubbed basically for the forums. Then all my favorite people were disappearing - either just done or we went to the discord Murloc Spot back in May/June.
The forum went practically dead for a bit and then suddenly there were all these ānewā posters/playersā¦or alts of people who said they left I think. I digress
After 5 months Iāve been playingā¦I donāt know if itās the break or what, but travel time seems a bit shorter and mobs donāt seem so overwhelming in Korthia- still hate the Maw.
It doesnāt seem so terrible. Not great, and imo worst expac ever, but okay. I guess Iām not trying so hard.
Back to the opā¦ I honestly could care. I donāt get why it torques players off. I mean they created a situation making it impossible for anyone to try m+ so ā¦ screw 'em.

Which people were doing since Vanilla. Just less out in the open. I say āprobably,ā because I donāt have statistics to know and donāt want to make up information. And yes, the token is much easier, you are correct.
Of course Iām not going to comment on PvP when I have never PvPād outside of a couple random BGs in 16 years of playing.
Currently, no, I donāt raid. I did up until BfA. And then I just stuck to M+, but havenāt run a high key since Legion. Itās the only time I pushed high keys.
I live vicariously through all of my friends concerning current high end PvE. Which I see and hear quite often. So I keep up to date with a few progression guilds. There are differing opinions with them on this topic, but they just try to focus on their progression.
To me, it would be irrelevant in a PvE environment. The group or guild does its own thing and earns the rewards. Someone else sucking at the game and getting a carry doesy concern me. They donāt take away from accomplishments or gameplay, imo. But thatās just me. And itās not a dismissal, just a different point of view.
I just donāt understand this mindset. If I accomplish something, I donāt care if someone else skipped to the end. My work and my experience has more meaning. They still suck at it. I accomplished it.
But I know we have different perspectives on it and thatās okay. I respect how you feel. I may not be able to understand it, but I believe itās an important perspective to talk about so that you are heard.
I will defend carries for gold because itās irrelevant to me and how I play the game.
You can boost if you want to, meantime I want to earn what I get, because the fun is getting there, not being there.
And if youāre the kind of person who derives no satisfaction from the process, then itās your money to waste.
The actual problem with real money boosting is that the people who do that are scammers who are far more interested in the access to your bank account and/or credit card than they are in the actual money you pay them to carry your butt through something.

There are always legitimate substitutions that can be used and donāt count as āmasked profanityā. Things like ādangā, āheckā, āfreakā, āpoohā.

to dance on mail boxes?
update: players can no longer stand on top of mail boxes.
To sit in Trade Chat?
updated: trade chat will only accept limited generated text request for goods and services. no other communication allowed
to collect Transmog?
update: transmog is being removed from the game and can only be viewed in collections
sure, none of the things are being nerfed yet but there are āfunā reasons players might play the game that has little to no impact on the progression systems needing to be āearnedā because one way to āearnā something is to pay for it via gold in game.
and even then, its not the goal of the player to say āi beat the gameā but rather, āi got the thing i wantedā
if the game was more like other games that replace the previous game, then sure, there would be little point in playing the game because even getting the thing you wanted will become worthless outside of that one moment. like buying a calendar because you liked the art for a certain month but tossing it in the bin when the year is over.
in any case. there is nothing out of place here or there. players playing games is all we got to know. free time is free time. work is work. and in some cases play is work and work is play.

Of course there are, and I routinely use them. I have a salty vocab Iām always trying to put in check on here. Every once in awhile I
āmess-upā -lol!! Havenāt a clue what word I used tbh. It just funny when stuff slides by on other players ALL the time and thereās a subset that will flag the heck outa me given a chance.
Thankfully the moderatorās are pretty fair on here - despite what people think.
Welcome to wow monetisationā¦ the more players need to buy gold to participate in the game the more profitable the gameā¦ unless there were also a couple other catastrophes like a massive tonal shift of the games material combined with uncovering decades of disgusting work practices.
no one NEEDS to buy gold to participate in the game, itās people who want to skip to the front that do it.
Shadowlands is my first expansion thatās why.
it happened to me alot lately
