Yeah you cant read or cant stick to a convo your right, 3 times i tried to stick to what you said, 3 times you came back with random stuff like IP, claiming people pretend to hate the game, saying people arguing for pirated versions when all that was said " i went to private servers when i didnt like the way retail headed" well all in all scroll up, try reeeeeaaallly hard to read, maybe you will make it this time troll.
you’re using a pretty common tactic that political reactionaries and cult members try and do.
you’re painting an extreme picture of a reality that doesn’t and won’t exist to try and get people on your side.
blizzard has never put anything like a rep boost even in retail, you’re fear mongering that they would put something like that in the game for absolutely no reason.
i just have to wonder why people do this, it’s just nonsensical.
blizzard never put boosts and a store mount in tbc?
whats to stop them
you said what?
I don’t like the boost because it removes players from the 1-58 game world, negatively impacting the leveling experience by reducing the available number of people to group with.
this never existed, an extremely small fraction of the playerbase ever cared about leveling.
it’s an objective fact that the vast vast majority of the game’s content takes place at max level.

I just did a who 1 - 10 / 10 - 20 / 20 - 30 / 30 - 40 / 40 - 50 / 50 - 60 (My server of course, but I can promise you will replicate the same numbers if you did it on your server)
There is 50+ results for every level range. So your statement is false (currently) of course there will be lower numbers once TBC opens up for real, but there will always be players in every level range on every server.
And you have to remember the boost (for now) is a one off. Meaning alts will still have to level the old fashion way unless they pay a mage to boost.
you said what?
This isn’t the same thing as what was suggested, and you know it.
When you have to invent fake enemies to try and get people on your side you have no argument.
By this logic a bonus BG weekend = as bad as a paid boost.
Again, when you guys have to resort to inventing fake realities, your entire argument loses merit.
You’re actual hurting your cause here. Rather than sounding reasonable and standing on a decent argument against boosts, you’re going off the deep end and making people want to buy boosts just to spite you, like me.
You say its fake enemys, but if you look a few years back its alot of “fake enemys” who turned into real enemys, a boost on rep like lvling would not surpice me one bit, as for it happening in tbc i doubht, but wotlk or cata i wouldnt be suprised.

I’m not saying leveling didn’t exist, just this idea of a romantic leveling “experience”.
I’ve played this game in both regions for 15 years and I have never met anyone who thought leveling was this sacred cow until classic neckbeards started regurgitating streamer buzzphrases.

Back in real vanilla there were periods of times where doing dungeons while leveling was uncommon. You heavily imply that some people being taken out of the leveling pool is some great loss, I contend that it is not. Even with the boost it is easier to find groups out in the world than it ever was in the real iteration of vanilla.
Spotted another immature person. Makes me wonder how many of you actually played TBC with how utterly childish some of you behave. Supposed adults, don’t make me laugh.
grow up please
People don’t like boosted characters because they infest battlegrounds with full green gear and very little knowledge of Classic PvP. Most of them come from Retail because Blizzard has a new shiny thing for them to throw their (or their moms) money at. Either give boosted characters their own bracket in PvP during pre-patch, or release 9.1 already.
If you can’t handle the truth you probably shouldn’t play the game.
If you can’t behave like a decent person you probably shouldn’t play an online game. Such a great community this game has, welcome to World of Warcraft where fans of the game hate on other fans of the game. One would have expected that people would have grown up by now, instead they’re still acting like a bunch of 12 year olds.
What exactly is indecent about telling someone that they are feeling exactly what they are supposed to feel? Or that people don’t want to play with peopl they think are ruining the game?
If you consider people who loved the earlier versions of the game, but dislike the later iterations and the people they consider encouraging blizzard to do the same again indecent, you need a reality check. The only indecent thing in this thread is people demanding respect and understanding for ruining other people’s fun.
You’re the one actually trying to ruin other people’s fun. I suggest you look into a mirror for once.
