this 16 years of my life gone im not starting over. I’m not losing everything and trying to get it all back
I’d be a little sad that my characters are gone. But I wouldn’t be devastated. The characters truly live within my brain and not on a server, so on that front nothing of what I consider to be truly valuable would be lost.
It would, however, make it considerably easier to just uninstall and continue to do other things. Perhaps sit down and write out the characters in my head and build their own fictional universe around them. Maybe sell that and see if I can make any real money out of it as a hobby.
The truth, for me at least, is that Blizzard has long since overwhelmed via poor decision-making any sunk-cost I may have with WoW. I’m still here because of the faint glimmer of hope that things will improve and I can once again delve into a fictional universe that I enjoy.
Don’t worry. Jesus saves, so does Ion.
Moonkin!
(OMG, forums, stop judging my grammar
)
How about punctuation?

Free me from my prison!
I thought you died.
I have a Mudback Calf in game named after you. 
I wish people would stop thinking like this. If you loved it or enjoyed it, it was never a waste of time.
it already did it was the person that thought MSV was a good idea and basically deleted my main, gave up on retail (didn’t even bother buying SL) and just playing classic with any luck they will keep most of their crap ideas out of it.
Ion would flip a truck, to put it nicely
I went on hiatus because I was working too much for the game or forums, but COVID solved that problem, lol
Hi!
Haha, start over he says.
lol Thanks Covid!
Yanno, joking aside, as much hassle as it caused it did bring about some good I guess. It also led me to pursuing a new career!
Not there yet, but working on it. 
Good luck with your new career!
I’m in a worker retraining program learning to weld, but still hoping to go back to my old career (with fewer hours so I can play WoW more.
)
Right on! That’s a good skill to have in general too.
I’d start over with a smile on my face. I didn’t mind starting over back in MoP. I like reset buttons. I was trained on a NES. 
Edit: It would definitely be a hunter! 
I wouldn’t. I would be done with the game.
Exactly this. Another I keep hearing about is: “why do you care about a fake world that will be gone someday anyhow?” To which my answer is there are plenty of real life places I’ve loved which no longer exist anymore. Was it a waste of time to go and enjoy them while they were there? And maybe I would fall out of touch with the people here in WoW, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t worth knowing them. I have fallen out of touch with a lot of real life people over the years for various reasons. I see it as all the same thing.
Didn’t say it was a waste of time. I’m saying everything I’ve earned stuff you can’t get anymore all that kind of stuff is all gone and can never be gotten back. A character my mom had me make before she died would be gone along with the mog she like on it so much stuff I would never be able to perfect and even if I made a new toon the same way its not the same one
Just the thought of everything lost would make me move on.
Well…maybe
