Something someone said in one of many threads got me to thinking about a totally hypothetical situation. If you're interested in a little abstract thinking, please read on.
Let's say for the sake of the exercise that F2P had no access to any battlegrounds. That Blizzard had made the decision, for whatever reason, to disallow F2Ps to play in BGs at all. Remember, "that's a stupid idea they would never do that" is outside the scope of this exercise, so I don't want to hear it.
Would you still have gotten into F2P, if the access were exactly as it is now but without battlegrounds? So you would still have access to all world events, and to world PvP if you flagged yourself, and everything else... but no battlegrounds.
Now as an extended exercise, also consider the same scenario, but you also cannot flag yourself for PvP and do not get flagged when entering an arena (and obviously can't loot the arena chest). With no PvP at all, would you still play F2P?
If so, what would you do / how would you spend your time?
Discuss.
