People talk about being inconvenienced by the game yet they are paying for it, and playing it. Some players want to pay more money to be inconvenienced less. Why pay to be inconvenienced at all? And then happily want to pay more for that inconvenience on a smaller scale? It's funny to watch some talk about it, how they hate having to go through certain things in the game, so they want to pay more to hate it less. If its not fun, don't do it, do something you enjoy in the game or play something else. Do what's fun for you, you are paying for it already.
Blizzard now instead, is taking our subscription money to divert resources away from what we pay for to create items for instant cash grab items.
