Wtf would blizzard put a 'fee' on WoW? (Poll included)

if you ever played everquest youd be aking that too. be thankful that WoW is only 15 bucks a month, EQ is much more anal.

Umm...this is a complete no-brainer...acourse WoW should have a fee...did you even take the time to think about it before posting??? The fee will allow Blizzard to pay to keep the servers running +improve them, keep paying the DEV team to update the game with new things, and to keep the kiddies out.

Think about things before you post...and perhaps you need to view this as well:

Pretty stupid post. Servers cost a shit load to keep up. Plus they had 40 servers just for open beta and they are to have more for Retail. You run 40+ servers with 2 gms in each one which all require money. Then update the game constantly to keep ahead of competition. The game is the best game i've ever played i never have nothing to do. Theres always something you can do thats fun no matter what level you are. D2 gets boring, I'll have to admit even Starcraft and Warcraft 3 get boring sometimes. As much as i love those games they will never been anywhere near as fun as wow is even in its stress test state. Please think before you post.

i agrre with u. the fee is just fair. u cant get anything for nothing u know ppl. nothing is free in life. get used to it, cuse thats life and thats how it will be for ever.

IMO fee is too big, maybe it suits rich people but WoW isn't worth that much.

Go play Guild Wars then you whingers.

Blizzard won't die because you can't get off your arse to earn money.

Don't know but it reminds me of S-F films where great corporations control people, and Matrix style films. I have strange feeling that Blizzard got everyone in hand, if they increase the fee reaction would be "Argh, no matter I must pay more, if I would have to lost my 999999 lvl Paladin oh I must pay"... Eh ...

Against thread necromancy here, but I'll put my word on.

First, realize what they do with the money. Servers have to be paid to bring it up and service. Second, workers need the pay to build the new content and so forth. Third, realize not everything is ever free even on the internet.

I wouldn't mind playing Guild Wars if I can get it now, but that's not because of the free play.
