Yep, uses different accounts to keep them bumped. Wouldn’t be surprised if he created all the threads aswell.

He still thinks people believe him, and there isn’t an ulterior motive at play :joy:

The interesting part is blizzard forum moderator allows it, shows true intentions of blizzard. If gdkp is a big no no, the posts would be locked down months ago

All the posts I’ve ever made that speak out against gdkp’s always gets taken down. Posts from others I see that speak against gdkp’s gets taken down. All the posts in favor of gdkp’s stay up. Blizzard is 100% biased. They only gave us no GDKP in anniversary in the hopes it’d shut some of us up, not because they really care.

It’s purely because these gdkpers are on a discord together. They come up with new attacks and report anyones thread that goes against their agenda. It’s an uphill battle as the millions of players happy with the gdkp ban just play the game, they donate visits the forums.

If you were so happy with the game you wouldn’t spend 8+ hours lying about GDKP’s to try and get them removed from versions of the game you don’t even play.

Anti-GDKPer’s stay conspiracy-theorists. And don’t forget Afkbuyers sells gold. That’s the real agenda behind this guy spamming every thread about GDKP. He needs it banned so he can sell more gold, like on Anniversary.

I’m here making sure what happened to classic doesn’t happen to fresh

Mop in free fall and the last way to earn an income is quickly fading

You can gas light all the gdkpers you want, normal players know I’m on the right side.

“MoP is in free fall”, SoD P1->P2 says what? SoD P2->P3 says what? MoP saw a 20k player loss total so far, almost entirely due to arena players.

Keep lying. I really appreciate the easily disproven claims that you post.

With your logic, Cata starting with HALF of WotLK’s numbers should’ve shut down before P3 released. Classic losing players as it progresses is expected. You’re just an idiot with an agenda. I’m bored enough, SoD losing 90% of it’s players in 6 months should’ve been shut down with your logic.

I guess the money from Anni gold selling is really life changing for you huh?

No level cap changing in MoP

I know you don’t understand basic economics but there’s a reason these threads have increased

90% player loss. 6 months.

And you’re calling losing ~20k arena players “free fall”.

I know you are better than this majority of that being alts is not the gotcha you think it is

They’ve post that this topic is a dead horse. They know it’s tired, but I also think they know there needs to be a place for people to post about precisely because there is a financial interest pushing it. Or maybe it’s just regular players across a ton of alts. Or maybe it’s just an organic thing, many players very motivated, but I doubt that one. Personally, I think that RMT sock puppets are the best guess, but I asked at least one and they said they weren’t, so who knows?

Classic numbers from WoLK, thru Cata, and MoP from Ironforge.pro demographics looks exactly like this:

X
X
X
X…X
X…X…X
X…X…X
Wrath->Cata->MoP
600k->300k->200k at height

If they do a WoD Classic it will prolly look like MoP (200k or so max), maybe a bit worse. That is my guess.

This is your basic exponential decay graph from a high of 600k players in wrath.

Anniversary has been very stable. Maybe the server mergers works to MoP advantage, but I doubt that. I think it is a sign that they know it is decreasing fast and they are working on other stuff, apparently both the China stuff and for the West:

90000 at the end of season

You attributing the player loss to anything but the level cap / xp requirement doubling every phase just shows how much critical thinking you lack

Don’t let critical thinking get in the way of your agenda though!

In the end 90000 players is better than the less than 1000 SoM had

Cope, a long leveling grind didn’t stop half a million people from raiding BWL in 2019

Bad game is bad, simple as

What? Didn’t stop them on anni either :joy:

Funny though, classic phases did actually follow the same pattern as sod :joy:

Classic was considered their largest ever sub increase since WoTLK

So they must of got something right with sod to follow the same pattern

Banning gdkps was the best thing they ever did

No more tears
