We'll bring more comrades to official forums. Don't worry, we'll win.

The problem is what if I've no interest in retail wow. Do i have to pay for it too? Is this fair?
1 token = 1 month of retail and 1 month of classic
I don't want to play retail. I say they should give an option for players like me.
1 token = 2 months of classic (no retail)

"retail WoW"
This isn't a private server, dude. Classic is retail now. I'm not sure why you people keep insisting on using that term for an officially licensed retail Blizzard product.
And yes, it's fair.
Because in that case, you'd be paying to play Classic and not playing "retail".

look at it as paying $15 a month for classic then. Just like we did back in the day...

You're delusional. cute.
If you have no interest in retail, then your $15 is going towards classic. Why is this such a hard concept to grasp.

How are you going to buy tokens without playing retail? They sure as hell won't make tokens buyable for classic gold.

Two games for the same price doesn't mean you have to play both.
It also doesn't mean you are entitled to pay less if you only want one.
Here's a good example...Most stores aren't going to be okay with you opening a package of something and taking a few out and saying "I only need 5" of this pack of 10, and expecting to pay less for it. You can't just go to a store and take an egg out of a dozen and pay for just one egg, because you don't want the other 11. You pay for the whole dozen.

I have to pay for something i don't want, to play something i want. This is fascism. Not fair!
This is a finished product mate. Just server costs, that's it. This is not back in the days. Game's been already developed.
Yes, but 2 months. This is fair.
Sub, tokens np... Same shit. Classic should have an another payment option

While I understand your point, you and everyone else who has harped on the use of the word "retail" to describe current day wow need to remove the sticks from their ass.
Obviously this isnt meant to call classic a p server, but to differentiate between classic and current wow in the fewest words/letters possible.

Wanna know how I know you're clueless?

Wrong.
They are still going to have bugs to fix, and plan to roll content out. Not just all at once.
It's not fascism, it's a logical business model. The amount of people who are going to play BFA is greater than that who will play Classic, especially long term. It's the easiest and most cost effective way to do it.
And Sanit, fair enough...But that's also just a bit lazy and a misnomer, no? You could just call it C instead. Or Bob. Either or. I don't really care that much, I just think it's a bit silly.

Lazy? Yup. Misnomer? Maybe.
99% of the time I post on here is from my phone w a shit touch screen, so I cut out letters/words to avoid pulling my hair out.

That's a terrible comparison, though.
You must not really have that great of an interest in playing Classic, then. Because a lot of people who are going to play Classic are more than willing to pony up the $15 sub fee just to play it.
Maybe they'll later roll out an option where you can have a reduced sub fee to just play it? Maybe not. But it doesn't make any sense why they would, as it wouldn't benefit them in anyway way.

Skeezin is just giving you ideas on alternate income streams. Good guy skeez.
And ya that basically sums it up glad you're able to accept reality.
