Some of like farming for gold. It's a play style in itself and many of us like doing it

What, exactly, is "playing normally"? Just about everyone I know plays differently. Some raid, some PvP, some farm gold, some never leave the AH and just flip things all day long. To each their own and I don't think there is a normal in such an expansive and diverse synthetic world.

Additionally, what is "plenty of gold'? I have millions at a time and it's not enough. I always want more and there is always something I can spend it on if I choose to do so. Others may be fine with a few thousand gold or just enough to pay for a few things they must have. Others still look at my millions and think damn, how can anyone get by with that!?

What? I can afford to box because I don't have to pay cash for WoW subs, xpacs, game licenses, etc. I haven't spent a dime in real money on WoW since I could buy battlenet balance with tokens. The ONLY real money I spend to play WoW is my Inner Space sub.

WTH is wrong with profit? My entire goal in WoW is profit. It is my play style. I don't raid, I rarely pvp, I don't care about most of the quests and such other than on one account that I started with over a decade ago. The whole point in me playing is to master the economy and make as much gold as I can in as many ways as I can. Farming, AH, crafting, whatever. I like it all - FOR PROFIT.

What is circumventing the play style? If it's within the rules, who cares? Everyone can play however the hell they wish. The only thing I see about that that is sad is being so upset about what other people do.

Whilst I've been typing this I am also hitting the 7, 8, 9, 0 keys to skin obs that some other multi-boxer if farming.
