The WoW Token!

Introducing the WoW Token - MMO-Champion BlueTracker

So in the coming months players will be able to pay for their monthly sub via in-game gold! Anyways, my question to you kind folks is if you plan on moving to higher level content or do you intend to stay in this bracket for as long as possible? If you do indeed plan to stay in this bracket, what's your reasoning behind it?
 
I'm staying in the bracket for only 1 reason.

So I can drink those 29 Brewmaster Tears.

mmm the tears
 
With this system the rich players in wow get free game-time and get richer cause of people who want to buy gold by getting more time to generate ingame gold by playing. This is a sad development. They can just simply keep on buying tokens from the auction over and over again. (ingame gold has no irl money value to me).

God, there is so much wrong with this game today.
 
I guess these tokens won't be cheap. But the real problem isn't this. People forget about the number of available tokens will be limited. Less players will sell, while everybody will want free game time! Even if you are rich ingame, you must be very lucky the find one in AH and buyout in time.

Anyway, veterans can't use AH. You must be active and farm plenty of gold first. Then pray for Gods to win a lonely token in AH. Gold farming at 90 isn't easy at all. Not only it requires plenty of time, but it's boring as hell. New expansion always nerfs the previous in this regard. No doubt, buying WoD and leveling a character to 100 will be highly recommended for this. It's not worth it.

... is this game going to turn into ftp sooner now because they're putting in a system that kind of matches some of the ftp models where you exchange crystals(actual money) with gold?

I might as well hold off my upgrading plan for 6.2 now since this might push WoW to go even farther lenient to ftp.

It won't be the AH. It will be a specific token AH. Vets might be able to use it, if Blizz so choose. You can't know what kind of supply or demand will be involved. It also sounds like it will be region specific, rather than server specific. No need for luck. Plenty will be available. Even if vets can't use it, it's a very simple matter to get a GM to give you a few days of free time.
