    low cost?

    hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha


    We already pay far more than what it takes to produce WoW, and these companion pets.

    10$ a pet? ROFLMAO it's not even their money they are donating, it's the customers. Why not charge $5 for the pet and donate 5$ of their own money? because they are in it for the profit, not the charity.

    I agree, I think alot of people are missing the point of this and that is the fact that they are indeed milking the customer thru shady marketing practices. AWWW....its soooooo cute and half goes to charity, while blizzard gets the benefit of such charity thru business tax write offs and there is a maximum you can write off. You will now understand why the donation offer portion is for only a short period.

    Everyone who is condoning this "pay-to-play" business is going to be happy to see when blizzard starts to sell mounts/flying mounts and in time gold, pre-made characters and arena rating for cash. I for one think these customers are the cash cow blizzard wants and I too would milk these sheep for every dime they had.

    Shit for 10 dollars I will follow you around ironforge or wherever dancing and looking all cute. For 30 dollars I will give you a group rate and bring my mutibox team and do fricken star chain heals around your ass at your beck and call. Darwinism with money.

    re read your response and try again. If you would like some help the words start with an S and F. Totally different business model.

    I am not shocked that Blizzard sells this kind of service, and I find it good they give some money to a charity. Now, I would have found it much more classy if they would give the whole amount to charity, and not only half.

    I think you guys are making a pretty big deal out of this. Like I said before, I'd be upset if they were selling stat increases. But pets? OH NOE SOMEONE HAS KT FOLLOWING THEM AROUND. Get over it. I don't see you guys bringing pitchforks and torches over Figureprints, Steins, and Jinx's Apparel or anything else. So lay off the QQ.

    I agree with what Lax said,

    You think we are QQing? Seriously.

    I am making fun of the people who will pay for this and defending it under the umbrella of charity.
