In school, money is at a premium but time is easy come easy go. After school, this gets reversed (generally).
All the people telling me "gold is easy to come by" are probably %100 correct.....relatively speaking. But I simply cannot "afford" to spend the time it takes to do it. Nor, by the way, do I want to.
You cannot afford to spend the money.
I cannot afford to spend the time.
In fact, I'll go so far as to say that if I truly had to spend this time to farm gold in order to continue playing WoW, I'd probably have quit by now. |
This basically sums up my feelings. To be perfectly frank, I get little enough time to enjoy gaming as is, and I want to spend that time doing fun things (raiding, in my case). When 1k gold costs less than an hour of work, it's a no brainer.
I would imagine a lot of the people vehemently against it are students without a real income yet (note: this isn't a knock against those people). When you start balancing family & job with free time, your free time becomes exponentially more valuable.
