Boosting Rule Adjustments

[Zora]

Not going to lie, this is the post that sold me on the "vision" of the devs here. I played on TWoW for quite a long time, but the idea of actually playing all of your characters to 60 instead of just AOE farming mobs to rush as fast as you can, is great to me. Goated change and I fully support it. I'll be making my first character tonight, good stuff Kestrel.

Tell us you've never played past MC/BWL without telling us. Get to Naxxramas/K40 & enjoy 50-200g depending on the server arcanite bars/mooncloth/cured rugged hides. Even if you have characters yourself -- it's going to take you multiple weeks to get enough of them for a set.

We aren't wiping on shit long enough to slowly progress and slowly gear up.

How you decide to play the game is on you. You want to level all your characters by questing one by one... that's your choice.

We shouldn't have to suffer the repercussions of how you enjoy the game -- all while you enjoy OUR cheap mooncloth/rugged/arcanite because WE put in the work.

Yup. I usually play to 60 and then stop because I dont really enjoy raiding. Im fine with taking multiple weeks to get things too, including getting my own mooncloth and other mats. So im not sure whos work im supposedly taking advantage of, but hey, you do you. I think banning boosting is great.

So you want your playstyle to get the playstyle of most players banned when you don't even raid?

If you do not raid you do not understand the implications.

Hardcore raids for instance wouldn't be possible without boosting ; there's Rav the avatar who died to a bug from cleave on Bolvar and had MC 2 days later -- he got boosted to 60 by guild mates and made it to the MC.

That kind of stuff isn't possible without it. Also if you're just leveling to 60 -- you claim you get "your mooncloth and other mats" but you need 2/4 maybe 8 at best. You don't need 30 which is what you need for cloth gear for Naxxramas t3 casters be it Priest/Mage/Warlock and the other classes also still need some which isn't possible with what you're saying

Make some sense ; if you're not raiding & just leveling to 60 then why would you want your "choice" to impact all the other players and make their lives more difficult?

A quick message to say I wholly support the ban. I like seeing people leveling.
An uncontrolled community always end up optimizing the fun out of the game.

People will say it's just a choice, and players can just decide not to boost, I think this is incorrect.
Most people will always take the path of least resistance, even if ends up not being fun. For example: Incursions on SoD. Nobody liked them, yet everyone did them, because it was better than questing.

The path of least resistance extends beyond the server. As soon as someone puts out a western TWOW copy WITHOUT a retarded ruleset, this place is going to be a ghost town. Hell I'm already seeing people bite the ping bullet and jump ship to Capy.
