Free T-Shirt Day Micro-Holiday on Patch 8.1.5 PTR
The Free T-Shirt Day Micro-Holiday is now active on the PTR.

  • An NPC marked on your map with a rare mob icon wanders around either The Valley of Honor (Orgrimmar) or the Dwarven District (Stormwind).
  • The NPC carries a t-shirt gun and periodically launches one. A t-shirt appears on the ground that becomes clickable.
  • Clicking the shirt gives you either:
    • A blue item called "Free T-Shirt" that visually removes the upper portions of your armor to expose the shirt you are wearing underneath. You can only use this item if you are wearing a shirt in the slot.
    • A variety of cosmetic shirts

    I to get a sense of pride and accomplishment spending $180 a year, $60 for the game and being able to purchase this mount in the cash shop instead of earning it in a fun gaming manner.

    I'm not really in to world first race stuffs but Limit isn't my cup of tea. They're awfully salty all the time it seems.

    I wonder if Method is streaming their raids to prevent "they cheated" or maybe it's just for stream views or maybe it's a multipurpose approach.

    Two different playerbases. My first thought was I wonder if there's a way I could get that on another account and transfer it to my main.

    Limit can say whatever they want, no matter how far they get it will always have the p2w stench.

    I love these posts and how they expose the people who are so self centred that they're unable to see the rest of the community as anything other than one homogeneous blob that's only capable of one opinion at a time.

    to you.

    this is hilarious. blizzard gave alliance the advantage. Just as horde had one with racials over many expansions causing most top guilds to be on horde today. After yeeears alliance has an advantage for a tier, but anyone who takes it is "p2w stench" lol.

    I'm guessing this is because the year of the pig. This is going straight to the cash shop, lmfao.

    At no point did blizzard gain cash from what Limit did.

    What other people did to obtain the gold to pay Limit is an entirely different story.

    Transferring gold --> credit --> race changes at no point adds cash to any of blizzard statements via Limit. To think otherwise is just a childlike way of thinking.

    I wish the shirt toy was permanent. There are so many nice shirts, but you can barely see them at all >>

    Yeah, really not a big deal. What I hate about them though is their super edgy attitudes so they always have the cop out of "we weren't even trying, lol this game sucks" when they inevitably lose. They've always been sore losers, so it's a combination of funny and annoying at this point.

    Its pretty obvious its because of the huge amount of money they will make from Twitch for live streaming this event especially when they only stream through their own parent channel its win win win all the way to the bank for Method

    That said, I agree he did a great job last time and would be a huge asset for the Method channel, but obviously he has worked out the business technicalities already.
