Hard pass. If you cant survive a few hours without wow while the servers are down you need to seek help.
This is what is going through someone’s mind right now - “I can just run multiple rigs 24/7 offline and then list everything on the auction house once a week. Then just sell the gold through a clearinghouse. What harm can it cause?”
So this about down time ,oh I see well even if mobile you wouldn’t be able to play the game period because it’s down at the source.lol.
OP even stated they want to make gold off it and doesn’t think there’s an issue.
Circus behavior.
I never said “I want to make gold off it”. I don’t need gold, but I don’t see a problem with more people getting more of it. That comment was poking fun at you for wanting everyone to be poor.
If people could just unplug their router, edit their local character inventory database to have gold cap, then reconnect, the auction house would become unusable in a matter of minutes (if not seconds) due to gold inflation driving prices to the moon and beyond lol.
Well, make it so that they can’t edit their local character, problem solved!
eta: also, I wouldn’t mind seeing the AH become unusable. I think it’s the worst thing in the game.
Offline only mode would be fun, however I think if they add offline play it must remain offline play and the character file should never have access to the actual games characrer files. Simply put, the offline mode should effectively be a different version of the game.
impossible.
That’s only true when you log out.
Ahhh, well I was wrong then thanks for pointing that out.
Nothing is impossible except for one who believes it to be so.
It’s literally impossible without keeping the offline character online. If the character file exists on your computer it can by nature of being on your pc be edited with the proper tools. You could make it difficult to edit but not impossible to do so.
As your own notion just stated, nothing is impossible except for one who believes it to be so. Which means you cannot make it impossible to edit your character.
Make it a block chain, because those can’t be edited, right?
also LOL at you claiming it’s impossible, and then agreeing with me that nothing is impossible in order to back up your assertion that it’s impossible.
LMAO you can’t make this stuff up!
I was merely using your logic to prove you wrong, If nothing is impossible then it would mean editing your character could not be made impossible otherwise you are defying the notion that nothing is impossible. It would be a paradoxical statement.
I’m sure you can find an official answer to your suggestion here:

From November, 2004. Nothing has changed since then to warrant bringing it up again.
This reminds me of that episode of the Simpsons when homer designs a car.
“Nothing has changed in almost 20 years” LMAO
You want a singleplayer game op this is an mmo. Your going to have to deal with other players like it or not
I think you are wrong on that front. The bell of forced connection with other players is ringing it’s final tolls as we speak. Delves was announced in the upcoming expansion and now follower dungeons are announced for this expansion. It’s obvious Blizzard is recognizing it sucks to play with this community sometimes.
No, I don’t want a single player game, as I’ve stated multiple times in this thread.
