Why the level 58 boost is bad for the game #stoptheboost

I’m parrydodger…

No you dont win, the only thing you’re paying for is time saved in game which notorious for its pointless stupid time sinks.

  1. fastest way to get alt (guild might want u to have another alt for split raids asap, reroll or proff CD)

  2. proff CD (many valuable ones u need higher level to craft, boost gives u one of them for every 1 u buy)

  3. 2 new players. If one doesn’t boost and one does, the one who does has an advantage

which gives you an advantage over those who don’t

You seem to making up advantages that dont exist.

this reply is the equivelant of ‘‘LALALALA, I’M NOT LISTENING, YOU’RE LYING!!’’ whilst sticking your fingers in your ears.

You’re making up these advantages that are meaningless.

That’s why it isn’t worth arguing tbh. You have no legitimate argument.

You’re throwing a tantrum because someone gets to skip content that’s been out for 2 years to participate in the xpac they want to play

They aren’t starting at max level.

They don’t have gold.

They don’t have gear.

They don’t have an epic mount.

They most likely don’t know anyone on their servers community.

They have no professions.

And your only argument is that they “may be able to use a proff cd”.

You do realize they would need to LEVEL THAT PROFF FROM SCRATCH RIGHT?

You might have an argument if the boost let’s you max out 2 professions, but it doesn’t.

You’re a kid throwing a tantrum making up false advantages to get attention.

No I’m not

Sounds more like coping terms for ‘‘I don’t have any arguments’’

projecting much?

sounds like you’re the one doing all the crying, about me. Honestly I’m flattered…

closer to that goal though aren’t they?

we don’t know that and it doesn’t matter anyway. There are other advantages.

technically they do.

but they do have 60% mount

so?

but it’s easier to power level at a higher level and also you need higher level to do certain important prof cds

yeah which they would have had to do AFTER levelling up. And using your logic, why should they have to spend the time to level the profs when they shouldn’t have to do the levels? Both are ‘‘classic content’’

I’m not, I can assure you, but even if I were, I’d still be acting more mature than you my friend.

All of these could be said of people who can spend more time on the game than I can too. Are we going to mandate certain playing hours as well? For me, weekends after 8pm EST work best.

I just don’t see the issue. If you value your money more than your time, you have the option to level. If you value your time more than your money, you have the option to boost. You do you, let other people do them.

yeah but that’s time, not irl money. Games SHOULD reward those who spend time in the game! That’s exactly my point. These things are problems because they are advantages gained through spending money!!!

not when we all share the same game. You doing you impacts me doing me.

Yet no advantage has been gained.

You’re wasting our time. You’re so lazy with your replies. As you said, you can’t be bothered to debate so why should I waste my time with you…

Clearly a 58 boost has significant advantages over a 58 leveled

We just haven’t heard them yet. Still waiting

That’s just like, your opinion man.

I realize that no one cares about my accomplishments in game but me, and any satisfaction I get from doing it “legit” isn’t taken away from me because someone else had it easier.

How? I’ve read through most of the thread and I don’t see it.

yeah because that’s obviously where the advantage comes from because that’s exactly what I’ve said…

OBVIOUSLY -_-

so p2w games are the most popular in a western market you suggest?

read more. Your obliviousness to what has been stated doesn’t put the burden on me to repeat myself.

A.) First of all you’re making a wild assumption that a boosted toon will be granted a raid slot, especially since the metrics for getting a raid spot are going to be much higher in TBC than classic

So your first point is based upon assumption with no proof, therefore dismissed

B.) This point falls apart almost immediat;y, even if we accept the weak assumption that people are going to be purchasing multiple accounts for profession CD’s then it follows that supply will outsrip demand, therefore lowering the price of said mats dramatcially

That is if we accept you…“argument”

C.) No you’re trying to tie two different arguments to the boost here, we’ve dismissed the first two. Both players have the option to boost or not there is opportunity to be had, but it does not immediately translate into “advantage”. You’re making the assumption that both these new players will like that toon or even continue to play.

If anything that speeds up any process of the game through paying money is considered p2w, yeah, the entire industry is built on it.

Even cosmetics nowadays are built to reward spending money over time.

I’d like you to explain it, because none of the points you’ve made affect you doing you unless you’re just dead set on being pissed off about it.

I was obviously referring to an existing player already in a guild. If their guild needs a different class asap, boosting a new toon would be the most efficient way to get that toon up to snuff to join the raid. Same goes for alts for split runs and prof CDs if the guild needs more of those for mats / gold etc…

No assumptions :slight_smile:

You misinterpreted my first point based off an assumption I was assuming with no proof, therefore dismissed…

adjective implanted to make subjective opinion seem objective

it might not be just for gold. Also, we don’t want all the prices to go down on everything otherwise people will feel compelled to buy gold to afford raiding, pvp etc… because they won’t be able to make enough money. Also, spots that remain valuable will become over crowded. Let’s say there are 3 gold farming spots in all of outland and 300 players are farming gold, if all 3 remain viable, in theory, you could have say 100 at one spot, 100 at the next and 100 at the third but if only one spot is viable then every1 goes there and it becomes impossible to farm efficiently eventually and that plays back into people not having enough time to play, something you guys seem to give a big sh*t about

No, you have and you are so arrogant as to assume the roll of judge, jury and executioner.

if they can afford it

it does

If a player decides to artificially handicap themselves by not using their higher level toon to get ahead, that doesn’t negate the fact that having access to that character is a massive advantage.

the mobile industry is. Only in the past few years has it being getting rammed into pc gaming and in most ways, it has been rejected.

cosmetics don’t provide a practical advantage. They do delegitimise a game’s reward structure but that’s a whole separate debate.

tough because I’ve done it already in the OP and in the replies on the EU thread. Go read if you’re interested… if not, blame yourself.

If you say so. :man_shrugging:t6:

That’s fine, I was just wondering if there were any points that hadn’t been brought up in the thread. I’m just not convinced that this is anything more than a mild inconvenience at worst.

And you never will be because you may deny it, but you don’t actually care what I say. I could write a university thesis and you’d throw it out instantly because you already have a belief and you’re going to hold onto it

that’s why 99% of the arguments coming from you guys are

‘‘NO IT ISN’T’’ ‘‘NOPE’’ ‘‘LIERRRRRRRRR’’ ‘‘doesn’t seem bad to me which means you’re wrong!’’

shrug

And I know you’ll think the same for me, but you’re the one replying to my thread. If you truly feel the same about me, you’ll stop replying to me.

Isn’t boosting for TBC realms only?
It’s not a relevant change.
