Came back to F2P after 14 years. (A few questions/comments)

[sw0495]

A few things to consider:
If you're using a "pure f2p" account (ie, an account that has NEVER had game time), your characters will accumlate and "bank" xp. That means that when the day comes and, after so much work, you sell your thread for gold... you will automatically level up to around lv30 if you have max banked xp.

Make sure you're ready for that, or... To avoid this issue, you need to be a vet account. Ie, once you've had any amount of "subbed" / game time on the account, xp banking won't happen and your characters should stay lv 20.

Im playing a Starter Edition acc right now and got massive Amounts of XP Banked.

Won't using one of those XP-Off NPCs in Oggrimar (Slahtz) / Stormwind (Behsten) before adding 'Game Time' (for the first Time) stop me from gaining that banked XP and leveling up?

As far as I know, not even those NPCs can save you from leveling. The only way to avoid leveling is to not log into those characters at all while you have game time.

No. Because you've already gained the XP.

i mean theoretically if you were so inclined which you seem to be you could level up to cap enjoy expansion then proceed to clear all the old raids which should be about 20k or so a week, thats 80k in just dungeons, make another 30k with professions (easy) youve got urself a free to play max level account using wow tokens.

Sounds like a full time job to play a game to me

Well it's far easier than grinding on a f2p account, that's for sure. If he's gonna spend all that time farming gold anyway, khryt's idea is a good one.
