It's just a scheme to avoid backlash from their player base. If they wanted to donate all the profit to Make-a-Wish, they would do so, they don't, it's a scheme. Companies hide behind charity very often to avoid consumer outcry.

not only that but they can write that off on taxes...no loss...just publicity (good or bad) and extra RMT cash

If 9mill+ is a sinking ship, what does that make the other mmos? sunken wrecks?

Not sure why but WoW has always been the MMO that tempts me back more than others....i think its todo with the flying mounts

I didn't say people were leaving, I just said the game was sinking. People are always going to cling to it no matter what, I'm not going to say it's a bad game because it very obviously isn't but it's certainly not what it once was.

So they make over 100 million dollars a month, then want you to buy a 20 dollar pet......and only 10 dollars will go to the make-a-wish foundation.......even though they make over 100 million dollars a month.

Dunno how much goes into R&D and marketing but still they make millions.......and they want donations......

I must be missing something here.

and this is what annoys me. because they get credit for your contributions. if i want my money to pay for a good cause, i'll write a check directly to the 501c.


and man i wish i wasn't banned from the wow forums because this guy is an idiot:

Ya he's pretty cool, but he's not 10 euro cool, nowhere close man.

As i wow player I don't mind selling pets for irl money, however they should keep the price somewhat reasonable.
