You missed the point. Idiots at 19 (and it’s a toxic bracket) aren’t bringing blizzard’s wrath down on twinking. The groups I mentioned are. That’s literally what the only issue is here. If the “fix” is to say turn off the ability to turn off xp it destroys ALL of twinking simply because some idiots wanted to make some gold. Anyone that isn’t denouncing that behavior simply doesn’t deserve to be defended.
I haven’t seen a single person in the bracket trying to organize stopping the behavior putting everyone at risk. That includes you. So get off your high horse until you grow some balls and do the right thing.
But 19s did get Blizzard's attention with exploiting gear, very recently. Blizz handed out bans for it (mostly temporary from what I was told). Your opinion, and that's all it is, that people are idiots for selling runs only comes when Blizz addresses the issue. I doubt you cared about this a few days ago. Your stance that anyone who doesn't agree with you doesn't deserve to be defended is irrelevant, there's no exploiting or cheating going on. Players can play how they want and I could not care less about how it affects you as long as I am A) having fun and B) not exploiting or cheating.
As for your expectation that people will organize something to stop this, the majority of people doing this do nothing but sell runs. They don't pvp and they're not part of communities where outside influence will change what they do.
The risk right now is this bracket. Why can’t the bracket self regulate to mitigate the risk that we all get wow ruined for us?
Again, you don't know what you're talking about. There are *2* brackets here. 110 is separate from 111-119 and 111-119 is primarily filled with 119s who do nothing but iPvP. Leave them out of your twink crusade.
Yes I understand you can’t stop everyone. But if the community took a stance and started excluding people that continued it would stop most of it.... the perfect need not be the enemy of the good enough.
The majority of 110s selling runs don't associate with other twinks. They make these characters just for this purpose and are not part of the community here. An attempt at excluding them (still unsure at what you're trying to exclude them from, exactly) would be completely ineffective.
Here's an example of a guy on Illidan I've talked to, it goes like this: He logs off his 120 to make some gold quickly before his guild raids. He advertises in trade that he can take up to 2 people through islands in 4-7 minutes at a cost of 4k gold per run. He gets 2 buyers, sometimes 120s join for the quick azerite even. He runs for an hour or so, mails the gold to his 120, logs off and gets back on his 120, buys some consumables for him and his guildies and then raids. He has no interaction with other 110s. He doesn't pvp. He doesn't care about how it might affect lower brackets, and in my
opinion I don't think he should care. He pays his monthly fee just like everyone else.
