    No clue, I only played like a month in Wow. It's something I took away when seeing €60 mounts.

    If you mean how we used to have sub time rewards back in the day, then I'm all aboard.
    I don't want to see WoW token type of item in the game if that what you meant?

    I never played WoW so I have no clue how exactly it functions but I have heard that you can buy these items ingame from other plays for gold or something? Anyway I would also be fine if we got two different colors for each mount and one goes to the game and the other goes to the cash shop..heck I would be fine if the one ingame was a one-seater and the one in the cash shop with more seats.

    Yeah the veteran rewards (they could reset them after every expansion and put the old ones behind achievement points for the newer players to get them) or like that one mount, where you got it if you sub a certain amount in a certain time period. You still have to pay them money by paying your sub but you get at least something out of it. And later it can land in the mog station for a reasonable price..this way anyone can get it even if they missed it and SE gets people subbed inbetween patches.

    Players are just saying whatever they want to say
    Just looks at other thread that demanding SE to put Feast Mount on the cash shops.
    You guys still decide to continue the pointless argument on a topic that showing up periodically by players that don't understand the definition of vanity.
    What is the point?

    Back to the original point, no I don't think the mount is too expensive. As some others said it pales in comparison to glamour prices. The mount is an ACCOUNT WIDE four seater. The glamours are for a single character only, so if you want one for every character good luck with that money, and as said you usually have to buy a whole outfit for just one or two pieces you want, which is crazy.
    My problem with the mount if anything is that it's huge, and we know people like to park their huge mounts to cover npcs and all. Luckily at least in Eulmore mounts aren't allowed.

    Some of the items Blizz sells/sold on the cash shop are tradeable to other players. (If you are talking about the subscription token, then yeah, that's exclusively bought for cash to sell for gold, but I'm talking about items.) I used to be really into the battle pet scene on WoW. As in, at one point I had the second ranked pet collection on my server (calculated based on number of unique pets, pet levels, and pet quality.) I was never able to take the top spot though, because I didn't want to shell out hundreds of dollars of real money for the cash shop pets (don't even get me started on the trading card pets.) I actually acquired one of my few cash shop pets by trade. I, who had more free time on my hands, completed a horrendous in-game grind for a different pet, then traded that pet for a cash shop pet from a friend who had more disposable income but not as much free time to do the grind.

    That's generally how I view cash shops- the only real currency is time. So I ask myself if an item is worth the time I spent working for my real money? Is there something similar in-game that I can spend my time grinding for? Which would I rather spend my time on?

    It shouldn't exist.
    All those mounts should be attainable through sidequest, achievements and other rewards IN GAME.

    What are you even trying to say? Communism? This thread is going off the deep end..

    You're right, it shouldn't exist! Neither should the cash shop mounts. Those wouldn't exist.

    You are free to have your own opinion of course, but my opinion is that you sound like a conspiracy theorist with nothing to back your claims up. What's next? Are lizard people from Planet X working at SE?

    Commendations.
    If I play dps I only give it out to other dps.
    If I play tank I only give it out to healers.
    If I play healer I only give it out to tank.

    Only if they should be getting a commendation.
    There are always exceptions to the rules!
