I bought the six month time because at this point in time I like where the game is going and I'm still playing regularly. The mount was just an added bonus. If that changes in the future, then I'll just stop resubscribing, not a big deal.
Also, you're mistaken. The mount is given to you after the purchase of the six month game time, not after it's used.

Anyhoo. I don't have a problem with the mount. I don't even necessarily have a problem with the deal in general. (Hell, obviously I don't: I just bought the thing.)
Players who are gonna be subbed for 6 months anyway just get a bit of a discount and a neato mount. That's fine. That's business.
No, my problem is the timing of this deal. It is some VERY unfortunate timing; overwhelming negativity surrounding the expansion, servers barely working for entire continents-worth of players, people quitting in droves, class balance in shambles... and then "Please don't unsub guys. We'll give you a cool mount if you don't unsub."
It's especially poor timing offering a super Lovecraftian-themed boat mere days after saying the Alliance only has horses because none of their zones have interesting mount possibilities - when Stormsong is literally a Lovecraftian-themed zone filled with shipwrights.
I am more worried about BlizzCon digital goodies.. Not seen the shade of anything but a Sombra skin.
FOMO: "Fear Of Missing Out", also commonly known as people with a mental issue of managing time and activities, many expecting others to fit into their schedule so they don't miss out on things to come. If FOMO becomes a problem for you, do seek help, it can be a very unhealthy lifestyle..
the 6 month thing is making me afraid that the next 6 months will be void of content. they're expecting the subs to fall hard
Has the same size and general shape, uses the same animations (minus sails instead of rotors), even uses the same /mountspecial.
Point being, it is an extension/re-use of aspects of an existing mount, in much the same way the mounts people like you were complaining about. The KT horse mounts use all new assets - new model, new textures, and yet there are idiots in this topic crying 'omg alliance get reskinned Cataclysm horses in BFA'.

Appreciate your time with friends and family while they're here. Don't wait until they're gone to tell them what they mean to you.
Nice I got it already from buying 6-months about a month ago. Guess it would have helped for me to read the full announcement as it was a gift on the app like they said lol. I wish it was a water mount as well. Would have made it all the cooler.
