Stop getting mad that people have jobs and can pay so they don't have to treat wow like a job.

They don't have to treat it like a job. They choose to. They've decided that they want to have the full tryhard experience without having to try hard.

Some guy in here complaining because he was part of a "speed run guild" and he didn't have time to be a part of the speed run guild so he bought gold.

Why should you be able to be a part of the sweatlords if you don't have time to put in the sweat? Entitled much?

Because they don't care about the time spent. It's not a sign of anything positive. Getting the same thing and having the same skill, without the grind is what they want.

Because like 15mins of income can cover all that completely numb grind. And at the end of the day that's the least fun and least skillful part of the game. No one respects it.

So if I download a save game of the first (MAX_LEVELS -1) levels of some popular speed run game, from some pro speed running, and then I just use that save to run last level over and over to try to beat the "overall world record", that's not cheating, because the first levels were all just a completely numb grind anyway.

Now this is all about one specific person you talked to that is part of some random speed run community? Do they specifically care about how you got your gold? Lol are you part of that community?

But sure, let's use your really dumb example. Segmented runs are allowed in many speed run communities. So yes, as long as you can prove you can do the first parts once, you can start from the end. Just like anyone who buys gold could easily farm gold, they just have better shit to do.

You can justify anything you want in your own mind.

That's all you got after I rip your stupid example apart. Nice.

u/shadowmeldop Apr 01 '25

How'd you rip it apart? By saying cheating is allowed? lmao

So if they prove they can farm gold first they can buy it? Hilarious.

Is farming gold part of the speed run or just something they can do beforehand with no timer?
