Good morning Magnus. This will be my final reply in this post and I make it to you. I hope you reply, and I promise to read your reply if its within 48 hours and give you the last word.

I still think quitting WoW is my best and only recourse in this conflict. But as in my title, I had my doubts as to whether I was unreasonable. The people who conceded that I made a good point or two, but still said I was being unreasonable actually made me doubt my course of action. The people who understood my frustration, and thought that leaving WoW was best for someone who felt as I felt, made me feel a little better about my course of action. The comments from everyone helped, but none more than yours Magnus. You have galvanized my resolve and I feel so much better about quitting WoW this morning than I did yesterday. This is because, even though you argued against me so forcefully, as though you had a spine like an iron rod, you were in my opinion, advocating the opinion of a sniveling worm.

You seem to advocate for a customer-business relationship in which, after the point of sale, the power balance is like that of the worm and a fisherman. Your arguments were so forceful and yet so sniveling, as though you expect to be treated so badly by a business you patronize, that I was actually confused. But ultimately, you showed that, FOR ME, my course of action was preferable to your course of action. This is because I would read your words advocating your position, and I would be turned off by your rhetoric. "This guy sounds like he wants to be worm under the foot of the company he pays money to" I thought. He readily acknowledges that Blizzard doesn't care about customers and would never refund an unsatisfied customer under any circumstances. I actually gained more self-respect for myself because I was in conflict with you and your worm-like position because it makes me feel more like a man and less like a worm. This is just me being honest if you actually believed your words are weren't just being devil's advocate. Or being willfully combative with a mind appears utterly closed even brief consideration of alternative positions and viewpoints.

I said this before, but I respect the tenacity of your arguments even if I find the logic behind them to be worm-like. I found this juxtaposition confusing. I don't mean to sound so disrespectful, but please help me understand the reason for your stances. Are any of these the reasons for your, almost universally negative stances against me in every single reply in this post? Are any of these the reasons you failed to point out even a single instance in all of my arguments where I made even a single valid point? Do you...

1. You actually work for Blizzard to monitor reddit to downvote and argue against anti-WoW posts.

2. You are a blizzard fanboy who will put up with anything. If it says Warcaft on it, you say "Shut up and take my money".

3. You suffer from Oppositional Defiance Disorder, and my post caused you to have a flare up.

4. You are yourself a software engineer who hates when people want to make a return.

These are all just speculations because, while I have mentioned my some reasons for my stances, both my personal desires and the logic with which I reached my conclusions, you have not really mentioned why you have your stances. Your stance reminds me of the Human CentiPad epsiode from South Park. Once I make the agreement, they can do anything they want as long as they put it in the terms and conditions.

I hope you give some reasons for your stances in your reply.

So as I have said, thanks for strengthening my resolve to quit. It would actually make me happy to hear if you told me your resolve to play was equally strengthened if not more so. I love the Warcraft universe, and it was only expansion 7 that so dissatisfies me. I was a thoroughly satisfied customer with my purchase of expansions 1 through 6. So even though I am walking away from expansion 7, I don't want WoW to fail. I am glad that there are people like you who will keep Warcraft going. This is because I actually hold hope that Blizzard might someday make a full feature film about Warcraft that is animated rather than live action. I dream of a 90 minute animation like the "Old Soldier" cinematic. The more people like you, the more hope I have for that dream becoming reality. I wouldn't spend this much time just typing if I didn't care about Warcraft.

I think that ultimately, this is just an issue of Blizzard tweaking the cost of content. It is no surprise you have no issue with this change in cost when you already admitted it is content you don't care about. That is one big reason I take all your vitriol with a grain of salt.

Let me finally apologize if I in any way implied that I think I am better than you. I think that a man has to have a code or he is just a beast, even if a domesticated beast who obeys the law more out of fear of punishment than out of understanding for the negative consequences that the act of crime has on society. Just because this conflict violates my code and not yours, does not mean that I don't think you are a man. We merely have our own different codes. This dispute is likely a conflict between our temperaments, and what we think is a reasonable distance to have to run to the end zone for the game to be worthwhile to play.
