Which argument? What points have been made? Looking at what I’m stating and asking, it doesn’t appear that I’ve lost anything other than the time that I’ve been interacting with you.
You are resorting to ad hominem, while ignoring legitimate questions asking for clarification. I don’t think that you’ve raised a single valid point, nor have you given any support, but merely have dismissed all questions, and are name calling.
Do you honestly think that I am the one who should be reported for trolling? If so, then fair enough. We have quite different perspectives and outlooks on life and WoW, and perhaps we can just agree to disagree and move on.
dont get me wrong u cant always 100% cheating in any game, but i guess this company isnt really that thankful or care too much about their community as much as they say they do. players are getting death threats irl, and other serious game related problems from these “farms”. and nothing is being done. maybe u can back your community a bit just how like we’ve supported you over the years. @blizz
Not sure how you came to the conclusion that nobody cares, pretty much everyone is sick of them. If you’ve ever herbed or mined, you’re fed up. If you’ve ever tried to make gold using the AH, you’re fed up.
FACT: The only people who don’t care about bots are the people who buy gold . . . the people who don’t fish, who don’t herb, who don’t mine, who don’t skin, who don’t make pots, and who don’t try to make in game money with their professions.
This isn’t even debatable.
Then you’re the one person in the game who’s had node after node swiped by a bot and are happy about it. You’re the one person in the game who’s gone to list your stuff on the AH and seen the same things listed for 2 silver above what a vendor gives you and are happy about it.
Putting “FACT” before your statement doesn’t actually make it a fact. If you care about bots, perhaps you’d care enough to share some information that others can replicate and verify.
There’s nothing to debate. You’re stating some completely unsubstantiated, unsupported and very subjective opinions.
Happy about it is an odd way to describe someone not claiming bot every time there’s any competition.
Anyway, look at this, I’m asking questions for clarification. Why are you deflecting and ignoring the direct questions?
For me, on the anniversary server Nightslayer, I’ve been able to make enough gold through mining and fishing to pay for my mount and abilities. I may have come across 3 bots in my time, reported all of them and moved on about my business. The in game economy is always going to be changing, so there will be times resources are not as profitable as they used to be. I agree that bots are a problem, I don’t believe they are something worth getting upset about. This is just a game after all.
I dont care about bots. I dont buy gold. And I dont do any of those profession things you list. Im sitting at 260g as a healer, have my raid consumes, no epic mount though.
Nope because they can still make plenty of money doing what they do. I dont care in the slightest that you cant charge 4g (way overpriced) for a stack of fish.
If gold was hard to make and people couldnt afford their epic mounts and consumables id be with you. But considering that isnt the case- you are in the minority. I dont care about people that play the AH game in WoW.
If you’re a mage gold is easy to make without professions. Face it, Vanilla is the most gold intensive version of the game. There are no dailies to pad your wallet so you’re either making your gold by questing, getting drops or by your professions. That’s it.
And you’re replying with some random videos on YouTube from 5+ months ago talking about Retail.
We don’t seem to be having a reasonable conversation. If you want to watch other people complaining, and join in on their complaints, get upset and be stressed out, then by all means do whatever you’d like. However, if you’re going to come to the forums and post complaints, please at least know that you may run into people who have different viewpoints, who may be skeptical of claims, and who may wish for actual verifiable steps to repeat.
These are the Classic forums, and it’s December, 2024. Have there ever been bots in WoW? Of course there have. I’ve seen (and reported) a bot here or there.
Whatever you’re saying or trying to do is not helping anyone in any way to confirm what you’re experiencing or add to the in-game reports. You may well care about signaling on these forums that you “care” about bots, but it’s clear you care more about complaining and regurgitating other peoples’ complaints than doing anything that could be worthwhile.
For the record:
Haha yeah… Also for the record, other than paying for the War Within expansion, I have not spent any money on WoW subscriptions, in-game, or any third-party services for well over a year.
Gold is pretty easy to make, even through just regular play, sending excess materials and items to an AH alt and casually posting, while going about day-to-day things like dungeons here and there, raiding, and dailies (Classic progression). Classic Progression servers and Retail have WoW tokens that can be purchased on the AH with gold.
There’s no version of WoW that I’ve played where I haven’t maxed out and regularly used professions, including all gathering professions, cooking and fishing.
You’re asking for my PERSONAL EXPERIENCES that other people can verify. I trotted out a sampling of others showing/discussing how bots are a PITA and interfering with their game. So why are you still asking?
Are you okay?
There were vids and discussions about all versions of the game, which means you looked at maybe two. But okay, people are sick of bots in retail but NOT on the anniversary realms. Got it.
Does that seem like a reasonable thing to say to you?
I watched your leading links in support of what you were saying, because I care at least that much about your opinions, which I assume is more than most anyone else on these forums might.
You’re posting rather irrelevant information from my perspective. I’m not claiming that people should love bots. I’m not claiming that bots don’t exist. I’m merely asking what you are personally experiencing that has gotten you to the state of coming to the forums to complain.
If someone in my neighborhood said, “The government isn’t doing its job. There’s garbage everywhere.” The first thing I would do is ask, “Oh, where is all the garbage.” because I’d want to verify this for myself, and understand the context. It wouldn’t be to grab a sign and start protesting on the streets.
But that’s me. I don’t intend any ill will towards you, and you’re entitled to having your own opinions and perspectives. Have yourself a great day, and I hope you enjoy your gaming experiences. I haven’t learned anything nor come away with any new perspectives or opinions as a result of this thread, so I’ll stop following it as there doesn’t seem to be much value here for me.
