no option for none (yet)?

[EaTCarbS]

its 2013 all over again :)

[gooch3008]

four here :C

waiting to see whats done with VM

[Moorea]

I stopped all 11 and moved game time from 4 back to primary bnet
will probably keep 6 or at least 2 to keep addons alive (mama, dynamicboxer, neatminimap, ahdb etc)

[nodoze]

I stopped all 6 of mine but mine were month to month and still had some game time on most/all of them...

I could just renew them like nothing happened if I want to (but I am not 100% sure I want to).

Since I have and plan to keep the ShadowLand's Collector's Edition I likely will renew at least my primary account at some point and explore ShadowLands though possibly just on 1 account on a class that is good solo (BM Hunter, Demon Hunter, maybe Paladin, etc)...

[Xhoor]

5 accounts. WOW is finished.

[moog]

All 5 here, too.
Can't go back so SBing.
Won't invest in a HW solution as Blizzard might change their mind next week, next year, whenever they feel like it.

[Pallarfo]

Same, all 10 (me + mrs) accounts are done now.
Wasn't intending on playing wow for a long time, this has been the final push.

[MadMilitia]

All 10.

Not rewarding them for dumb ideas regardless of what it is. I gave them probably 2 years of hopeful money that they would change but they haven't. Looking forward to Morhaime's next project as I think that is our guy for reviving the genre.

[Kraxx]

10...

[Brandish]

I've just unsubscribed 6.

This is what I put into the box at the bottom of the cancellation screen each time:


The 500 char limit here is ridiculous.

I have been multiboxing since the beginning of the game, in 2004. I do not
bot. I do not act like a bot.

Multiboxing without key broadcasts is called multiscreening. Get your
terms straight. Saying "we haven't banned multiboxing" would be an error.

I underdstand that some poeple are abusing the mutliboxing tools,
running 40 to 100 accounts at time. That is not me.

You're losing "normal" players because of this change.

Couldn't agree more. In 2005 when i played 13 accounts on EVE, before I ever heard about broadcast software, it was called "multi-accounting". They are definitely misleading people by banning broadcast software but claiming to have not banned multi-boxing.

Cancel all 5 of mine played since launch. Thing is they didn't stop the bot's or farms abusing the system.
All they did is stop the very small few legit players, and checking the forums there is still the same complaints.

Not that it will ever change now as the fiscal hit is not enough for Bobby to give a shit and that's the only way it would matter.

Read an interesting article someplace that sited 20% of Warcraft revenue is botting account's, so would make sense Blizzard approaching things the way they do..... Poorly for players and maximum fiscal reward with an outward zero tolerance stance.

I'll never ever buy a Blizzard Activision game again for me or my son that's for sure, even though the company is indicative of the gaming industry generally at this point, games stopped being for and about gamers a long time ago.

It seems like they are banning lots of folk that are doing 4x2 farming while supposedly not doing/using anything inappropriate.

This observation is based upon posts I see in various discords so is anecdotal but it does seem like there is a focus on folk farming Retail that way. Personally I haven't played Retail since BFA launch let alone ShadowLands so I don't really know 4x2 methods/approaches/benefits (and don't care to).

5. I don’t anticipate ever playing WoW again after this.
