Have they changed the loot rules of a game mode before? The answer is yes. You guys can whine on lvl 20 alts all you want, but your arguments are basically:
- No one wants it (Pro-GDKP people believe this is untrue, thus why we want a public survey)
- Blizzard decided already (They changed the rules mid-sod, no reason they can’t change mid-anniversary)
- You can play era (We want to play TBC)
- You are gold buyer/RMTers (Anniversary is the most RMT’ed version of classic ever, whatever they’ve done has not worked)
- They erode guild culture (There are more guilds in MoP and were more in Vanilla/TBC/Wotlk/Cata per Wlogs, all allowed GDKP)
Again, you can still say "I don’t want to play on a server with GDKP. But I fail to see why you feel like being so annoying about a server you wouldn’t play on.

The survey was sod, the fact the game was at its healthiest point and the playerbase had no gdkp complaints meant it was a success.
Why would they go back on something they seemed successful?
You’ve had your go at a gdkp infested tbc
Let us play tbc the way it was intended
Mathematically impossible as 700+ items that could go for uncapped amounts of gold each in a bidding style loot system has been removed.
What you are experiencing is a mega server, these problems do not exist on DS / maladath.
Definitely not the case. Guilds are already falling apart on MoP as players decide they want to be paid for their time (unhealthy in an MMO)
Retail still takes #1 spot for guilds and doesn’t have gdkps
I’d feel just as strongly if they allowed a server you could bot on

The fact you look at GDKP and botting in the same light speaks more volumes than anything else you’ve said.
You’re not worth responding to. Retail has excessive raid sales that far eclipse anything that has ever existed in classic lol. They also monetize the token/mounts/xmogs/etc. What a ridiculous attempt to compare.
“Let us play tbc the way it was intended” - The original post says you’d have your own server. You are legitimately just a bad person I think.
“I’d feel just as strongly if they allowed a server you could bot on” - Every single blizzard server bans bots. Only 2 servers ban GDKP.
“The survey was sod, the fact the game was at its healthiest point and the playerbase had no gdkp complaints meant it was a success.” - Everyone can go look at the numbers at ironforge pro. SoD was the healthiest in p1 (and probably had the most unlogged raids)
Nothing attracts botting as much as gdkps
They go hand in hand

You had your turn at a gdkp infested server, we don’t want that experience again lol
Every new server is banning gdkps
Even private servers lol
This is why no one takes anything a gdkper says seriously. Everyone including blizzard knows the drop off was because the requirement for xp and raid prep doubled.
Funny, I don’t see you saying anything about the SoM server that was deemed a failure, which also allowed gdkps? 
You can gaslight all the easily swindled gdkpers you want, luckily blizzard and the vast majority of players have critical thinking.

In a perfect world where there was no botting and no RMT, what would you say about GDKP?

They have thousands of posts on a lvl 39 named Afkbuyers. They are not a reasonable person lol.

This is not even close to being accurate.
A tiny fraction of players are lazy and unethical enough to just cheat their way to raid-readiness.
The majority of players operate with integrity, and farm consumes legitimately in the game by using their herbalist/alchemist, or trading with guildies.
You just want to frame RMT as something that “most people” do, so you can absolve yourself from having to recognize or acknowledge that you’re cheating.

Of those that buy gold, most of them are buying for consumes.
The moralizing is insane.
In a perfect world where there was no botting and no RMT, what would you say about GDKP?
That’s never gonna happen. Ever.
It mostly boils down to player behaviour, as long as demand for buying gold exists, bots will be there and Blizzard is just not willing to spend the necessary resources to win this arms race.
This doesn’t answer the question I asked. I proposed a hypothetical question for him to answer, and how he would feel about GDKP in a perfect world where there was no RMT or botting.
This doesn’t change the point of anything I posted.
It’s a very small percentage of players overall that buy gold for any reason.
Most players earn their consumes by putting in the playtime instead of cheating.
This thought experiment accomplishes nothing in real life. If you’re arguing for gdkps you can’t separate the RMT aspect from it. It’s like asking someone “Would you be ok at shooting at someone if humans were immortal?”. It might be amusing to ponder about such questions but it doesn’t change anything.
Buddy you are completely missing the point. I wanted to see where his head is at. I obviously know this is a completely unrealistic scenario. I’m just wondering why you are typing to me when I didn’t ask you a single question.
It is yet another example of an Anti-GDKPer being incredibly unreasonable and dramatic.
No one knows the percentage of players that buy gold. Anything you say is anecdotal at best. I would wager the rate of RMT is much higher than you’re attributing, but no one knows.
My original point, which you were responding to, is that people buy gold for consumes, much more than they were buying for GDKP. So if you really wanted to stop RMT, Blizzard should look at making consumes cheap/inexpensive.
Pro-GDKP are not only incredibly small, but they’re also just players we do not want playing the game. That’s why we removed GDKPs.
“Because I want it!!” is not going to convince Blizzard to change their mind lol.
Zero proof, zero facts, all feels. Again, that’s why you’re not being listened to.
Because those are different games? Not really a hard concept here.
The jokes write themselves lol. Good luck posting about this for another year.
