It is kind of sad, that nowadays, fanatics no longer hold belief in God, but in corporations and defend every little thing that they do even the most unbelievable of them. Cyberpunk is now.

If only y'all knew of the unacceptable practices the companies you buy from do.
Blizz trying to make extra money off prettier pixels doesn't even come close to unacceptable.
But as long as you don't see it though right?!
I'm a thread killer.
It is a tricky thing to actually speculate on. We don't actually know how successful blizzard is if we are being honest since things like call of duty and as much as it pains me to admit it king games are massive entities.
As for the mass firings it was almost entirely a marketing team and given how awful blizzard is at marketing I can't say they will be missed or even noticed. The servers are not affected at all by the closure.
I honestly don't care what morals a company claims to have. The whole we love social justice just please don't bring up china is so cringe inducing I wish they would stop mentioning it in every single press release but it isn't really a factor for me when it comes to buying their products.
What effects me directly is what I care about. I will never play overwatch. I effectively got it for about 2$ from humble bundle and simply gifted it away. Why? Because I know with their current policies and how ban happy they are in that game I would last all of three matches before losing my account.
I dislike the cashshop because it promises and has delivered in cutting content from a game I already buy a box for and pay a sub. Though I do take even that with a pinch of salt as technically someone else pays my sub via the token.
After reading this entire topic I came to the following conclusion:
Blizzard could create exclusive realms and exclusive xmogs are sold at this server's store (since I want to order my Rogue Tier-19 all remastered Full Black) and anyone who accepts the store to sell xmogs could go to these servers without paying anything (in fact I I would even pay, anyway ...).
So if you are one of those who:
See no problem paying for basic game.
See no problem paying for expansions.
See no problem paying sub.
See no problem paying all services (char transfer, change name, etc)
See no problem paying boost lvl 50.
See no problem paying exclusive pet.
See no problem paying exclusive mounts.
But .... "JESUS OH NO ... look !! an exclusive xmog being sold in the store !! How dare they do this ??"
So you can continue in your realm and whoever has a little more open mind (and the pocket too) would go to these realms.
p.s: Yes, I know I am a genius, Blizzard! You can get the idea for yourself and you don't even have to thank me! Just sell me a rogue tier 19 full black xmog and we're ok.

Some drones will defend Blizzard putting Mythic raid gear or pvp ratings for sale in the store cause u can still get it ingame yourself.
"They only added Heroic raid loot to the store with 10.3.5, not like they will actually add Mythic raid loot in the store, dont be silly"
For OP, im not okay with mounts, pets or transmog of any kind added to the shop, we pay so much for wow everything should be part of the sub, it could be cool rewards for questlines, bosses, rares etc

Also ...
Blizzard, that topic has exceeded 450 posts and I know you were interested and are reading this.
I guarantee:
People just stop playing because the expansion is boring.
Nobody will stop playing if you sell re-colors of mythic sets or new and exclusive xmogs.
At least 50% of the player-base will buy an "super-xmog" on day -1.
The rest will buy on day-2.
Did anyone abandon the game when you started selling the mounts? No, right?
So ... just do it.
Thanks.

This list of games might interest you since they all do exactly what you ask for:

It already exists. It's called spending obscene amount of money on Tokens and buying carries. Thousands of people already do this.
