Inactivity Cleanup and Gold Squish for a healthier economy

Hello. I've been saving for a mount for 3 months and I only have 13,000 gold. Why don't you notify me of these reductions by email? I'm new here and I didn't even know that something like this was being done. I've played on other servers, but I've never encountered this. I'm only now reading on the forum that the economy is being reduced. The prices in the auctions have remained the same, only the gold from the accounts is gone. Even a beginner who wants to buy equipment has no chance when this nonsense is being done here. As if there was at least some benefit from the reduction, whether it was some skins or something like that, but this is too much. I enjoyed playing on this server, but with this step I probably lost interest. Just don't worry about the gold, but the time I spent earning it is simply gone.

so, im spending coins to buy gold to in the end you cut 50% of the amount i have? then will you rufund also the half of the coins i spent to get gold in trade services? well, think not, you really dont care if we farm or buy gold, to you is the same, so im spending money and coins to get squished :(

and another problem, you only said it 1 day before the squish, there is no f*king logic, you should advised it earlier, not advise today and squish tommorrow, you are playing with my real money i spent in site to get gold and then get squished -.-

because they dont care about your effort on the game, i did spend real money to buy gold on trade service and lost my gold and coins too in the end, tbh

This thread has been here for over a week. It was posted on the 5th.
You also didn't "spend money to buy gold." You made a donation, and traded the Coins you receive as a gratitude token for it with another player for their gold.

All announcements are made on the Forum and it's our main source of updates and news. That's how it has been for over a decade.
The Forum isn't a secret club or an obscure source of information, not keeping yourself updated isn't our fault.

HALF!! yet somehow i went from 780ish+ gold to 322. What kinda meth maths is that!

Why isn't such an important message showing up in WoW chat? If we had been warned for a week that something like this would be coming to the servers, everyone would have noticed.

So, your suggestion is to not squish gold which was bought from trade? And not squish gold from characters with less than 30k gold?
That's such a horrible suggestion and so easily exploitable. So, effectively we should charge people so their gold isn't squished, that's your suggestion? And then people come and make conspiracy theories about how every tiny decision from the Staff is meant to maximize profit and nothing more.

Your account is from 2013, and I see forum activity from 2016. And yet you act like you don't know we do yearly squishes. Imagine how much your 20/30k gold could buy had we not squished gold the past decade -- there would be a lot more gold in circulation, and as such, your 20/30k gold would be worth a lot less.

The gold you bought is still in your bags. And it's worth the same as before. Just the numbers changed. Now wait a little so that the market catches up and prices stuff accordingly.

i say more, you should advised only on website main page on 16th, and squished the same day -.-

That's a nice story con man, but then please explain to me how come the prices in the AH wasn't squished? You guys squished everyone's gold, but the AH prices are still inflated, so how does that makes sense, care to explain?

You think it's the Staff who puts the prices in the AH?

Where's my gold? You just stole it. The game's announcements didn't mention it at all. It's a complete scam. Your noble words are meaningless.
