PSA to Boosters

It’s really bad on Mankrik. But, mad because poor normally infuriates them if you call them out on it.

58 levels. $70. that is about $1.20 per level. Per hour at my job I make that in just over 2 minutes. I can not level in two minutes. My time is more valuable then that both in and out of work. Giving someone grief about not re-walking a path they have already walked is silly. My question is to all those purists out that with 4 or 10 alts. You really feel like you accomplished anything? Those alts build you a career, or a house, or buy you a vacation, or a degree, or a life? How much time went into them. and one more only could have costed you $70. What is your time worth?

Not only were “carries,” as they were called, very prevalent in BC, the act of paying a more seasoned adventurer to help you through a tough dungeon more than fits the narrative set forth by D&D, and carried over into all fantasy settings.

If people want to waste their money skipping the game, let them. I choose to enjoy the adventure as I haven’t in quite some time. Even leveling feels like growing in strength, and questing feels more like I’m working towards helping the goal of the factions and planet. It’s a true adventure now.

Yep, ironically store boosters are the ones with the entirely emotional argument yet they want to claim that the COMMUNITY they’re apart of pushing back is just ‘salt’.

It very much is, they’re just whining about man bear pig and wondering why no one else cares.

yes i did, read the post again. Then go ask him to explain why he complained in his video about boosting an alt is skipping content, but when he levels an alt starting today he will also skip content. He will skip way more content than the 1-57 levels. He got rank 14. Is he going to do all of that again on an alt or is he going to SKIP that part. He raided also. IS he going to make a guild or join a guild and raid all of the raids at level 60 or is he GOING TO SKIP that also?

Start with that point. there is one. OH im guessing he is ok with skipping that content though.

here is a bonus one for you. he talks about all of the bad things that happen because of being booted. But then goes on to justify Mage boosting. He suddenly forgets the supposedly bad things that happen because of being boosted. Instead he switches the argmument to be about paid vs in game boosting. That is a seperate issue. if he is ok with mage boosting then everything he said negative about boosting is moot.

This isn’t Clasic WoW. It’s TBCC. Take your purist attitude back to the other game where it belongs.

you are doing the same thing, you are bypassing the argument of what is bad or is not bad about a boosted character and jumping straight to completley different argument about mage vs paid boosting.

I found a way to speed run too. its called pay for the boost. Wow, i skipped so much content that i have seen for 15 fkn years now. what a loss.

yeah, this

You mean like retail?

:face_with_raised_eyebrow: really?

Well it was sarcasm so no.

To be fair. Boosters start with absolute garbage gear. They’re going to get the same hostility that any fresh 60 is going to get, when they don’t bother to run even a single dungeon to get not garbage gear.

AFkers/“defenders” are a bigger problem, but it’s hard not to notice the guy doing 1/8th as much damage/healing as everyone else, and figure they had some contribution to the loss.

how delusional do you have to be to blame the players because blizzard didn’t fix blatant terrain exploits

Blaming the players for purposely killing the community aspect of 1-60 is a perfectly reasonable response, especially when you call it an exploit.

no, you blame the people who have the power to fix the exploit

so every single dungeon in the game has an exploit? Mages literally farm everything up to mara. Sounds like toxiic andy blame blizz for everything thought process.
Blizz is a trash company, but the mages hoarding 100s of thousands of gold manipulating the economy and killing the community are why the classic population has been dropping rapidly, and its not a secret, posts on here almost daily about it

You take the forums far too seriously.

yeah uhh, MMORPGs and the communities they form doesn’t really work that way.
I know of several people who have left or remade due to being outcasts; but it was their own behavior that caused it.

I guess if your advice is limited to questing and doing random 5 mans with new folks they can play the game , but the raiding community is a pretty tight knit community.
Your advice of ignoring the community ? stupid imo.

I haven’t boosted, but I’ve encountered a lot of boosters. The only “hostility” I have seen regarding boosts (or really the only mention whatsoever) was:

“5 of us were at Galv.”
“Wait… since when do you need more than 5 people for Galv?”
“I think they were all boosters.”

That was it.
