Twitter's a place that'll pamper you, so long as you come up with a dad enough story.
I know at least 3 people on this very forum who have been extremely vocal and tbh, quite nasty towards people paying for the boost - ironic considering they have admitted privately that they themselves have paid for a boost, and in one instance, bought the version with the mount.
Ignore everyone saying anything negative about the boost - by level 60 (about an hours work, maybe 2), and no one will have a clue if you boosted, came late to classic, boosted with gold, or are just an alt leveled specifically for TBC. I personally had one alt in trash gear sitting at 55 for weeks before pushing through to 58 and leaving it sitting there for TBC launch.
Lastly, a boosted toon will still tear through the opening quests in hellfire, no issue AT ALL, and you will have a full set of expansion appropriate gear within a few hours of walking through the portal. Will you be matching some full T3 geared raider? no. Would you or should you be expected to? absolutely not.
What if you adopted?

Which is a laughable thing to expect for dungeons.

Oh bullshit. I’m guessing most of the people boosting probably played BC orogmally and just don’t want to level a particular class all the from from 1. I may do this with a Druid. And I raided past T5 content on a Druid back in BC originally. D it doesn’t take very long to rehear in out lands anyway. I’ve done every quest in HFP literally dozens of times, from way back when it was fresh on.
It’s laughable when people here talk down to others like as if you’re so goddamned special. You’re not. In fact, I think I’ll boost a Druid now, and be loud and proud about it. Just to be a dick.
The boost haters are just a loud minority. It’s not like majority of the player base hates the boost, it’s just that the ones who hate it are the loudest. Regardless, any realm you go on will have them, more so in the realms where asmongold plays.
Most likely the wisest Enhancement Shaman.
Pretty much.
It's downright ridiculous to use the "I am a dad I haven't time" excuse to sign up for a MMO.
Just like I just can't fathom the mindset "I'll pay a subscription to play a game, and then I'll pay to skip the content of the game".
And finally, it's a good thing that people look down on the boosters, because they are the ones validating monetization and cheapening of the game. That's a good part of what we were trying to get away from, only to have fucking whales sucking up Blizzard to import this cancer back into Classic.

From someone who despises Classic and yet comes to shitpost every day of the week about Classic in a Classic forum, that hypocrital lesson is pretty funny. Someone is projecting hard and should listen to their own advice.
Ah yes, the people /spitting on people with CE mounts and kicking boosties from groups are truly the heroes this game needs. Stopping people who’ve already bought the mount and boost from supporting greedy business practices.
C’mon, the shop was coming no matter what. They’ve been saying for years that services was the way for their other games.
Look at the outcry in WotLK when it launched. What good did that do?
People seem to need some safety blanket for being an ass and will look for any justification.

They aren't heroes and doing that won't change anything.
They're justified though, and boosters deserve the scorn they get.
You seem to have trouble seeing the difference in concepts here.
And look where retail has gone since then. Seems to me that all the retarded "it doesn't affect you, why should you care/just don't use it" are part of the enablers that allowed this to go there.C’mon, the shop was coming no matter what.

True, but it doesn't mean that sometimes it isn't justified.People seem to need some safety blanket for being an ass and will look for any justification.
Not that I do /spit on boosters, but I certainly don't fault people who do.
I don't get the anti booster mentality, most people I know did gold boosts which they made doing gdkp runs. Guess who buys items in those runs? People who buy gold.
Anyone who sincerely expected Blizzard to not introduce a Cash Shop in Classic deserves to be /spit on too. This game could benefit from fewer naive people who blame the community for something that was unavoidable.
The mentality of "you used a service that was obviously going to be implemented, therefor I'm going to be a dick to you" is just laughable.
Obviously Blizzard's doing something right if these people who feel so strongly are still playing, as the cash shop is implemented for the second time. Want to prove your stance? Try not playing. Trying to force other people to speak with their wallet when you won't is ridiculous.
You play it like you want it.
When they make boost available for belves I'll buy it, then jump on that warp stalker to join you.

The answer is the same as always: make your own group if you want to play by your own rules.
