I'll buy the expansion but unfortunately my playstyle has devolved over the years. My account is currently inactive and will remain that way until the new expansion comes out. I have no interest in gearing up but rather complete each raid a few times and experience the lore and then quit. I don't resub for smaller patches either. I played at the beginning of MoP and resubbed for Throne of Thunder. No interest in the upcoming raids like Siege of Ogrimmar etc so next time back will be X5.

While Annual pass was a great marketing idea, I think a lot of people felt taken advantage of from the first one. I personally did. When I signed up for an annual pass I had Dragon Soul for one whole year without anything new to do. I got D3 which didn't live up to the hype and I played for maybe 2hrs total, and a mount which I never use. Never again.
