You're talking about 1 of the many many ways you can make gold. Just because your version takes skill doesn't make it a blanket statement over making gold in general. Making gold doesn't require skill, it requires research.
This entire game requires research to perform at any kind of level... I assure you that if every single player had to figure out everything about the game themselves people would not be talking about how much "better" players are today compared to vanilla.
And yes, I'm talking of one of the ways you can make gold.. a fun and skill based one, which you are welcome to do yourself with a hunter alt. Mages have fun farms as well, so do other classes if you bother to figure them out or do a little research.
My point was that the notion that farming has to be tedious and unskilled, thus justifying cheating to not do it, is entirely false. If people want skill based engaging farms, or passive farms, or whatever else then those things do exist. Because what they actually mean is "I don't wanna so I'll cheat".
Listen, you're going into a crazy tangent about specifics. This isn't a pay to win game so buying gold doesn't get you ahead in anything but the stats on your character, unless of course you're paying to get boosted in arena, keys or raids but that's a whole nother topic. Buying gold is not cheating, especially since blizzard introduced buying and selling wow tokens.
Nothing about your argument proves your point, it only explains the way YOU make gold. If people buying gold affects your experience in wow then you have bigger problems than gold buyers
Sorry that you consider "completely disproving your point" to be a crazy tangent but it is what it is.
This isn't a pay to win game so buying gold doesn't get you ahead in anything but the stats on your character, unless of course you're paying to get boosted in arena, keys or raids but that's a whole nother topic.
No, it's the same topic. And yes, if you buy gold it VERY much is pay to win. Pay to boost to 60, pay for dungeon runs, join GDKPs for raid gear, buy as many consumes as you want. Of course it's pay to win.
Buying gold is not cheating,
It absolutely is.
especially since blizzard introduced buying and selling wow tokens.
Then go play a version that has wow tokens. Classic does not.
Nothing about your argument proves your point
It absolutely does, you're just desperate for your "achievements" to mean something when they don't. Because you cheated.
If people buying gold affects your experience in wow then you have bigger problems than gold buyers
Like infestation of bots and a completely fucked up economy as well as increased competition for raid slots against people with infinite resources?

Holy shit the cope in here is insane - so many swipers who have honestly convinced themselves they're doing nothing wrong.
Probably also hate all the bots as well heh.
