In this post you say why my argument makes no sense. Ok, fair enough
But you dont explain why the Blizzard's design makes sense though...why is this timagate "a thing".
why?
- - - Updated - - -
Then tell us "Why" is this timegate good and makes sense for the player...
That wasn’t the question you posed to me. Others have also answered you, so why should I repeat their answer to you?
Also, I refer back to the rest of my post that you ignored:
“Also, I’m really tired to this excuse of “keep people subbed.” If people are subbed to play the game, then waiting for a cycle of something to be available makes no difference as that person is still subbed regardless of waiting for a specific item to be available.”
entitled mentality in a nutshell. so boring. these people should just quit if they hate it so much. never understood how can someone play a game that he feels so hateful to even write on forums how bad it is yet still keep playing it. baffling. i have things i dont like in its current state but i still play every day and not planning to stop. so what corruption sucks. big whoop.
Please then, if we need to explain AGAIN why the corruption timegate should exist, i would love if you could defend all the timegates you just moments ago said were good time gates.
Professions- time gated
gathering- time gated
rare mobs- time gated
questing- time gated
leveling- time gated, why do you think its so slow to get around?
Molten core- time gated
ZG- time gated
Onyxia's lair- time gated
Blackwing lair- Time gated
AQ20- time gated
AQ40- time gated
Nax- Time gated
PVP rank- time gated
PVP holidays- time gated
holidays- time gated
Events- time gated
patch releases- time gated
world bosses- time gated
head hand in- time gated
Please explain why all these time gates were good. and before you cry "straw man straw man!" i said these, and you literally responded with "those were good time gates" so please, if you are going to ask us to explain why corruption vendor is a good time gate, you must then explain why the above are good time gates, so we can compare.
we already explained why the corruption vendors rotation is a "good time gate"
but you say its bad.
but the above stuff you also say is all good.
so please explain why all of those are good.
Before i start answering i think is funny your argument now is "all timegates are bad, so why is this any different"
So...you are admitting timegates are bad? WHich is a bad start (>_<)
The only reason why "we" accept timegates like we accept them now is because Blizzard led us to believe is for a greater good.
Either a more enjoyable experience or for casual players to not be left behind against no lifers.
This must be documented via blue posts
This corruption timegate...on the other hand...would need a bit of clarification.
They were quoting you, Dumbass. You were the one who said "ALL TIMEGATES ARE BAD." then you were shown all these other timegates and you suddenly changed your tune to "Some timegates are bad." because you were called out and shown to be a liar or so stupid you need to get off the internet and go back to school.
This isn't the first time, you've done this all over the forums that basically nobody believes a word you say.
But if you want to know why this TimeGate isn't bad here's one. Without it everyone on this forum would be rushing in saying how they HAVE to grind 100 visions in 1 day just so they can get their infinite stars Rank 3 because blizzard didn't put in gates to stop them. Much like how they cried about it with AP needing to be capped because "I'M FORCED TO SPEND ALL DAY ON ISLANDS OR BLIZZARD WILL SHOOT ME AT THE RAID INSTANCE REEEE!" posts.
lol nice try, im not the one who said all timegates are bad, you did bucko.
Then suddenly when we brought up the classic wow timegates you got all defensive of time gates.
i love to watch your little squirm here, constantly changing sides.
"Timegates are horrible they are a disrespect for our real life time"
Then "No those are all good time gates, for the good of the player!"
now back to "We only accept timegates cause blizz has led us to believe it is for the greater good"
Your starting to remind me of eleccy bub.
Read again all my posts.
Im not "new" to MMO-C
I did not make the mistake of saying "all timegates are bad"
Because i knew this would possibly happen.
Read all my posts again...slowly.
SPOILERS: I said "timegates for the sake of timegating"
@FelPlague
As you can see...you are misquoting me
Literally not what he's saying. Only point being made by Felpague is that time gates have been an intrinsic part of the game since the beginning. Stop drawing your own conclusions and stick to what's actually being said.
Timegates have always been about pacing, both for players benefit and for Blizzard's. The fact that there's benefits for Blizzard doesn't automatically make it a "scheme".The only reason why "we" accept timegates like we accept them now is because Blizzard led us to believe is for a greater good.
Either a more enjoyable experience or for casual players to not be left behind against no lifers.

And like I pointed out to you already (which amusingly you've again neglected to even touch upon), pacing the purchasable corruption retains value for the corruption items obtained via RNG means.

And again, who are you to decide what timegates are "timegates for the means of timegating" and "Timegates for the better of the player"
We asked you to explain why all those timegates are good timegates, while this one is not, but you refuse to, cause you cant. meanwhile we have already explained why it is a good timegate, many times.
unless your character somehow became unplayable without your bis corruption (which you obviously didnt have before and was still able to play), and i mean LITERALY unplayable, that you have to logout in champer until its available, this is the worst analogy ive ever heard...
*Ahem*
I am done here, im getting distracted when i should be working, plus this has gotten pathetic.
Actually as jester joe says, its the same as saying the Black Market Auction house is a timegate.
This isn't a time gate.
It's as simple as that.
It's not preventing you from playing any content. It's not preventing you from accessing anything.
And hell, it's not the only source of Corruption.
Is it an arbitrary, kinda silly decision? Yes.
But it's not a time gate at all. It's not gating you out of anything.
