Pearl clutching dungeon boost sellers

And mages and soon pallies would be rushing to max to do the same thing that is happening in classic now. The need for gold to buy those carries would then translate into a demand for bought gold that would create the same bots.

Botters make about 200g a day ($8 USD). Their farms are terribly inefficient. Using that logic, it’d be irrelevant for a bot to use the boost because they make multiple times that $8 worth of gold just leveling the bot; there is no reason for the botter to risk whatever extra $ it will cost for the boost, even if the cost scales to their Argentinian accounts.

Dungeon Boosting =/= Level Boost

Gold Buying will ALWAYS be a thing. Whether it’s to pay for Training, Mounts, Mats, etc., doesn’t matter. Removing Dungeon Boosting doesn’t stop this.

So you are more offended that the person paid blizzard for a faster boost. Got it.

I’m not ā€œoffendedā€. I’m disappointed. It’s you who is ā€œoffendedā€. You’re so offended by the existence of Dungeon Boosting it’s so funny!

EDIT: I genuinely am curious why that bothers people so much! What is so wrong with Dungeon Boosting?

A level 58 boost, even for a single character per-account, will significantly affect server economies. There are a lot of people who don’t have the will to level alts that will use it to have a gatherer/extra crafter for TBC. That increase in people gathering nodes/crafting will certainly change things economically.

What is wrong with buying a boost? For that matter, why are you trying to say what I am when my own words are not that way? Are you really so bored that trolling the forums fills some hole in your life today? If that is the case, then you are welcome, I guess.

Comparing paid boosts to a player made boosting situation in order to justify it is silly. You know, apples and oranges.

As opposed to the enormous amount of dungeon boost selling that currently exists? Or the trade of retail gold for classic gold that has occurred?

No kidding, and the reason some of us requested fresh servers… with no boosting.

You remove ā€œthe Grindā€.

Please correct me, if I’m wrong. You still haven’t but continue.

I’m not trolling. You can continue to throw ad hominems. Doesn’t strengthen your point.

It’s not. So, let’s lay off the personal attacks. I’m not a Troll. Stick the topic at hand.

I would like a non-fresh Server with no level 58 boost feature :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

I would like you to stop trolling yet life is full of little disappointments.

I’m not trolling. I legit want a non-fresh server without a Level 58 Boost. It’s not blasphemous to feel this way.

Stop attacking me, as if that gets your point across. It doesn’t.

Do either of those things create more materials that are introduced into the economy? And yes, they have an effect, it’s just not the same.

Making a statement on a feature they would like is not trolling. Posting silly rubbish like this is though. Bravo!

I think not wanting the boost because it wasn’t in the game back then makes sense. To get boosted, unless you had a friend who was happy to just boost you for hours on end you still had to level up your own character, then farm the gold, to pay for the boost. (or buy gold ><)

In the end I don’t really care anymore, because that will just cut into my enjoyment if I worry about something I can’t change, what is going to happen, will happen, unless too many people complain and it doesn’t look like it will reach that level.

I’m just going to gradually level my characters the old fashioned way, and while the paid boost cheapens the achievement of leveling to 70 which is disappointing to me, I’ve just got to accept it and enjoy the game for myself as I’ve been hoping for TBC since before Classic.

Personally to me it’s like using cheat codes, so it’s just not fulfilling to be gearing up a character that was gifted at a high level. But there are plenty of people who have a blast and will only play games with hacks, so.

Sorry, mage boosts aren’t the only issue here. They also trashed the economy with AoE farming since launch.

It’s alzo cute that you think dungeon boosting is still a ā€œgrind.ā€

:man_facepalming:

They’re already there in force, they don’t need to pay for boosts. Your argument is something that is already happening will happen?

When I said that, I wanted to be clear that I’m not contributing to the problem, and that my opinion has some merit and value. Even if I was (again, I’m not), it holds no weight to the conversation. I just know that some (not all) like to blatantly disregard opinions because of that.

Also, I (personally) don’t view it as a ā€œproblemā€.

Wait a minute, wait a minute…

Are you telling me, that players farming ā€œruinsā€ the economy? Now, that’s a ā€œfacepalmā€ moment.

It is a grind. The 60 is doing the ā€œgrindā€. The Level 58 Boost Feature removes that, entirely.

Back at ya.

Should I waste my time listing the numerous things that also didn’t exist, or people didn’t do in original Classic that they do now? The amount of things they abuse/sell/exploit?
Should I list the addons that didn’t exist, should I list the ease of access to gold selling sites, and Mage boosting 1-60 in 24 hours played. Should I list the amount of resources that are available online now to make it 100000x easier to do anything in the game?

Should we remove those things? Nope, because once again this has nothing to do with Blizzard and everything to do with the community. Stop.Shifting.Blame.
