You don't really get it do you? Either that or you haven't played WoW that much.
It is true that even now making gold is as easy as eating or driving a car....hell its even easyer then breathing. Doing dailies is a HUGE source of income.
Just think about it....you could make 400 or so just by doing dailies...ITS EASY...but then again after the first few days of doing dailies you will be sick and tired of doing the same thing over and over again.
Trust me...been there...done that.
I've have manually leveled about 10-12 toons since I started playing. I loved the game soo much...I've made a shitload of gold just by leveling and doing dailies...but after a bit even the damn HODIR rep dailies became a huge pain in the ass.
And this is the dailies section only....
Now lets look at the farming section...who the hell would be sane enough to farm "for a living" in WoW. This should be read like "Who would farm every single day for a few hours?". The answer is either BOTS or Chinese(since they are already insane). People will make some gold but its really just a tiny bit of gold. They would grow tired of it really fast. I've farmed everything since TBC and WotLK came out...manually and OMG it made my brain go numb just after a few hours...let alone a few days.
And now my favourite way of making gold...the Micro-economy....Wall Street of WoW.
There is just soo...soooo much gold you can make through some management and some spare time. The AH is your friend and if you understand it, its just a insane place to make cash. Ohhh but most of the players suck at playing WoW normally(dungeons and what not)...playing the AH would be just to hard for their brain to understand.
Here is where the gold sellers and we come in.
We offer materials for the economy to work on...we offer the gold for the players to actually afford to buy the finished products....I could say we are the "background engine" of the game....we are the thing that makes the game work from the shadows.
Gold will always be in demand since people can't really play the rest of the game and just want to raid or PvP.
Anywayz...in case you haven't understood why demand has gone down yet...leme just put it to you like this:
You can't go to the beach in the fucking winter

. Sure you can go in the spring but the perfect time is the SUMMER.
Just wait for our summer and be patient.
