I really hope you don’t play another season you weird little gnome, people like you make the game much worse, on ya bike buddy!
11 total brain cells firing. You think people want to play with their friends and guild? No… of course! It’s because they want to transfer all that RMT! That’s it!
One single yike provided. I can’t believe you’re actually able to turn on your computer, and navigate to the forums, let alone get dressed without assistance every day lol

To be fair, you’re not wrong in that, people RMT’d the crap out of SOM. Hell, I sold a crapton of sappers to someone directly who RMT’d their way to R14. And yes, the scarab lord achievement was piss easy to get in SoM compared to in classic.
But I disagree in the notion that the characters should be banished to the shadow realm.
If they’re offering us transfers, it should really be to where we’re actually playing our characters. People have even made plans around this concept.
I’m glad your situation seems to have turned out fine, but unfortunately I think most people are in disagreement with you and want the opposite of what you want. Its just as simple as that.
Most people in this thread that I’ve seen, seem to agree and want to actually play their characters on their main server, to play with their friends. I can only speak for myself, but from what I’ve seen, this seems to be the case for what most people actually want. You can tell me if I’m wrong all you’d like, but I’m just looking at the amount of people that agreed with the original post, or disagreed.
Also, people RMT the crap out of current classic anyway. So thats not even an excuse if you really think about it. Your only real complaint, is it devalues the current classic realms’s scarab lords. Which is fair, but unfortunately most people aren’t scarab lords, so most people don’t care.
Also also. If we were to assume Blizzard does nothing about being able to transfer to classic servers, besides being able to go to Eranikus or whatever. And then we were to assume everyone transferring had 100k+ illicit gold from SoM, which wouldn’t really be true but lets just say it was. You’re looking at a really bad situation for one server, whereas it could be spread across multiple servers who already have a super fricked economy to begin with. So it wouldn’t matter as much for them, if say, all those illicit RMTers went there instead of the new server.
I dunno, I’d like to hear your thoughts on that.

Come on man, everyone knows there isn’t a single bot in wotlk classic and every single gold is legit gold farmed straight from dire maul unlike som where mobs don’t even drop gold you have to purchase it straight from blizzard.

You ok bud? Sorry you cant go play with your friends. Level up new characters? I believe in you.
I dont recognize you. You must have been struggling through BWL in phase 6 or something like some of the guilds on Jom.
Classic scarab lord was much more time intensive and harder to get because people were actually playing the game unlike SoM that died super early.
I was in two of the top guilds and gold buying was RAMPANT. Just because people did something already that was bad doesnt mean its ok now. I dont buy into that sorry.
The fact is that Season of Mastery was meant to be played as a season. You play for a year and characters go to era servers. Thats what Blizzard said. They lied. Now they are offering a way to transfer to Wrath but people are gonna have to pay for it. Whats new?
Sucks that i and many others were mislead into thinking this was actually going to be a season.
Im sorry if you guys feel like im trolling but i think the word lost its meaning along the way. This is just how i legitimately feel. Sorry if that hurts your feelings.

Bro i’d be more than happy to pay for it but thats just not an option.
Also people think you’re trolling because the way you type comes off as really aggressive and disrespectful. Not saying anything you’re saying isn’t valid or anything, but the way you say it can rub people the wrong way. If thats what you’re like, thats just how it is, keep being yourself.

^^ Seems like miffy wrote the same things on his alts to get someone to appear to agree with him that people actually want their characters with that time investment should be banished to era’s dead game

And it’s demotivating players to ever try any seasonal server again. I at least won’t do.

The difference is that a seasonal realm is the same thing as a private server in the sense it has no connection to the real game… except SOM was the real game and blizzard being blizzard kind of had an obligation to make those characters a part of their real game… it also helps them keep subs of people who would have dropped because now they can continue playing the characters theyve put that much time in to. its really all semantics the fact is we were given the choice to move to WOTLK and the issue is that the choice to move to WOTLK on realms we have no existing connections too is unacceptable. For those of us established on locked realms such as faerlina/benedicton without question we should be able to move our SOM characters here because it is no different than boosting a character or creating a level 1. People who do not have ties to existing realms should be able to choose ANY of the unlocked realms instead of trying to force funnel us into their pet project eranikus so they can claim look how great we did!

This is very well said just factual points

Blizzard bends over backwards to accomodate the whiney SoM playerbase. They respond in kind with a wall of complaints and faux outrage. You chose a seasonal realm when you hit ‘Enter World’.
All this thread does is further prove that even SoM participants don’t actually like seasonal play. Oh and lest we forget, they’ve already admitted to it:
Why are you such a salty individual?

Eh. Difference of opinion.
I wouldn’t have expressed it that way but it’s their argument.
ngl part of what made it so easy for my guild to get me back to TBCC was my shock at how easy it was to gold cap in SoM. RMT was awful in SoM - but maybe because the amount of people participating was concentrated unlike the huge servers in TBCC (now Wrath) that also have large numbers of illicit gold sales but they are able to wave it away a bit better because of the greater numbers of people.
I’m content with what was announced and others aren’t.
There’s no need for me to call out people that are unhappy about it.
It is kinda surprising to me though that when there is an option (there didn’t have to be) to move that it’s not good enough for some but hey. It’s free is how I look at it. It’s also unfair (in my view) to others already playing Wrath that cannot move to the locked servers that SoM players would get to bypass that. Wrath is popular and busy. It is what it is.

This might be the case if som was popular enough to even warrant a second season. Towards the end it was as popular as era which everyone knows is basically dead. Your cluster can’t even field 20 man raids lol.
If blizzard didn’t give the option to move to wrath this wouldn’t be an issue, but they told us we could continue to play our characters in wrath, then they go and send us to one single server even after knowing they forced every player onto one server if they wanted to keep playing with actual people.
You might think playing on a server on your own is fun, but the majority of the player base plays a massively multiplayer game for the multiplayer aspect.

AGREED. what is the point of Xfering my toons to Atiesh for wrath? All my toons are on BSB. I don’t see any justifiable reason for not allowing us to move our toons to the realms we play on.

Maybe because i value integrity when it comes to the rulestate of a game? You set the rules for a game at the beginning and dont expect to change them halfway through the game. Otherwise when does it stop? Whats the goal of the game if you change the way it ends halfway through? Would you play differently if you knew it was going to change?
Im happy you get to keep your characters for anyone who went into Season of Mastery thinking this was going to happen anyways. But im not happy that it became a non season.
That make sense bud?
