Well, what are you doing here then? Go join your guildmates and farm hundreds of golds! What’re you waiting for?
i’m playing a hunter auto shot/afk:D /i can switch on forums and on other pages .
I’ll have epic mount money from selling FA pots next week ^^
Take is easy brother and don’t be jealous
Yeah, the same, it’s incredible how people are managing to make gold. I barely was able to afford my spells and basically had 0 gold at 60 level. Now i fluctuate between 0 and 100. Have to spend lots of money to raid and to visit dungeons. If not for class mount, I probably wouldn’t afford even 60%. Feel like everyone around me buys gold.
It is clear as day this is designed gameplay - Establish a set of “shadow rules” to exacerbate the animal instincts of people and turn the game into a full on RMTSOLO experience.
Blizzard CAN ban bots.
Blizzard CAN track RMT transactions.
Blizzard CAN crackdown on gold sellers and buyers.
Spare me the BS. You wanna call me a conspiracy theorist for pointing at the sky and saying it is blue!? Fine LOL
The only solution is to 1. Call them out and try and expose what they are doing or 2. Quit playing and do not give them your money. End of.

It is partially true that gold introduced into the economy by bots causes inflation so some of the gold or stuff people sell should never give them as much.
However if you do most of dungeon/leftover quests by the time you hit 60 you can easily get 200-400g from that.
Devilsaur leather sells 4-6g i dont believe thats something that only gold buyers can afford even if they need 22 for the set.
On thunderstrike arcane crystals go for 30g which is how i remember it from OG vanilla 25-30g and 30-35g for arcanite bar.
I farmed about 20 on my rogue in silithus thats about 600g nvm blue sapphires.
So while i can see how almost 4k can be farfetched even if “honestly” farmed cause of inflation due to bots.
However people who claim its impossible to get a mount within days or first week after hitting 60 are just not good enough at finding ways to get gold for their class/profession combo (and yes i understand some of the farms might work differnetly for pvp servers) or just plain delusional.
I have LHH,Krolblade,every consume for raids,faps for pvp and i bought materials to resell later… I did not buy any gold, i sold stockades boosts,ghost mushrooms and my Arcanite cd’s. Many guildies bought gold tho. Even as an GDKP enjoyer i admit it was part of the reaon why people are buying gold but so are epic mounts,consumes,epic boe, and auctionhouse.
And for casual players that only have 5 to 10 hours of playable time each week?

Saw a Pug raid the other day where they only told you the loot rules once you joined their discord and they gave you a “special role” in the discord. :^)
Surely just another 3SR raid, right?

Well they can play the current retail>
So basically you want DEI applied for classic with the excuse of casual play for 5 hours. (with what i read something like communist environment )
Pretty much a communist environment that make effort to be rewarded negative and everyone is pretty much equal …
what you gonna do with your 4k gold / epic mounts / BiS buyed gear → if their is no casuals to watch you shine when you slack in SW with your big fat rich a$$ ?
Casual players are the soul of World of Warcraft Vanilla/TBC/Wotlk

Vanilla WoW endgame is built for RMT or unhealthy amount of farming.
Yeah farm for 10 hours to afford a BOE.
It’s all about player perception. On private servers before Classic it looked completely different. The player count was lower, yet the servers managed to progress through all raid tiers. People didn’t buy gold or farm instances at infinity to generate gold but rather barter, and set up connections to post orders for consumables. It was somewhat common that the AQ40 raiding guild had “casuals”, often in full BWL set gear, that weren’t into raiding but liked fishing or farming herbs (and with lower populations, it was actually playable) 
Blizzard WoW got twisted in many ways that make it a completely different, lesser game. It’s player meta stupidity that they now want meh BoEs for a hundred gold and BiS BoEs for hundreds of gold because they can’t comprehend going into MC first time without BiS gear for 2000 gold. Now people freak out because they may not have BiS for BWL and subsequent tiers. They are dumping RMT due to FOMO created by themselves, not the game.
Which is a beautiful thing and a consequence of having a lower population - When each player counts, then everybody has to be nicer to each other, and everybody becomes accountable for their actions.
In a mega server, there is no reputation to take care of. Everybody is easily disposable, and if somebody “needs” to find 25 warriors for a perfect raid roster, they will.
And all those ways make Blizzard’s bottom line fatter. Meaning, it is 100% intended.

Yes, but also larger older servers had some of that too. Private servers may had under-the-table shenanigans but no organized botting as there was no profits on such scale - and when there is no botting the bigger the pop the more resources are needed while gold is… somewhat useless. People were bartering hard.
Paradoxically Bethesda made excellent bartering economy in… Fallout 76. Somewhat similar to pre-Classic servers, but even more chill and barter based (very low currency limit 
)

I’ve played WoW since it’s beta back in 2004.
From 2004 up to 2012 I did played non-stop.
Never buy gold.
Never hear of anyone “close” to me from buying gold.
And those who buy gold were banned for ever.
This is by far the most […] response I’ve ever read.
Communism is based on spread richness and money.
Limit or cap markets is in behalf of a healthy economy, and prevents monopolies.
It allows fare trade and availabilty for every consummer in the market ot access it.
No - Communism is slavery.
There is no richness since slave-labor is hard to make profitable.
Money is always the paper version, printed to infinity with no accountability.
Not only is the economy not healthy, widespread hunger and malnutrition are common.
The state is the ultra-monopoly. Full-blown centralized dictatorship.
Trade is prohibited under communist rule.
All I can say is, if you are for real, go enjoy a long holiday in North Korea.
