Celestial Steed and Lil'XT

Not going to touch your other points, but regarding the quote. You really shouldn't enforce your value system on people. For some people, having a "cool mount" is a result of having a mount who looks cool to them. Theyre not looking for a badge of honor for completing some in game task, they want something aesthetically pleasing. Good for them.

This guy bought the mount too. ITS A HORSE WITH WINGS DUDE! Sure its his right to spend the money on how he sees fit but that doesnt mean other people are not going to call him a fuckin idiot.

No excuses or rationalizations are going to get most people to understand your stupid decision. Unless of course they do the same thing themselves. Like I said above there are more pragmatic things you could do with money, but dont expect people not to call you an idiot for spending it like one.

One has to ponder if no one purchased the mount/pets and everyone said "No way will I pay for that!".
