I'd spent the past couple of weeks working on a 110, and leveling a 119, finally finished my Timewalking set the night before the patch.
I went so far as to get a refund from Blizz as I'd just re-subbed on the 9th (Patch was the 12th).
I think I'll still try my F2P/Vet toons from time to time but I really can't justify giving Blizz money when they pull stuff like this. I liken it to buying a TV/Cable package because you really like a specific channel, and then three days after you sign up they remove that channel.
