Soon WoW will be "Free"

.....

Buy game time with gold, and gold with real money.

Blizzard has announced the WoW Token, a new item that will be available soon. The Token is purchased with real money and then can be sold off on the auction house.

The purchased Token from the auction house can be redeemed for 30 days of game time.

Tokens will be sold differently than regular items as sellers will be quoted a sale price based on supply and demand. The Tokens sold via the auctions house become Solbound.

"Buying gold from third-party services negatively impacts the game experience for everyone," Blizzard says. "The overwhelming majority of the gold these services provide comes from stolen player accounts, halting the victims’ ability to play the game and contribute to their guilds. On top of this, gold selling companies often farm resources using hack programs, sell fake product codes as a scam, and spam entire realms with ads to buy gold, disrupting the game in very real ways.

"The WoW Token allows players to exchange real money for gold in a secure and sanctioned way—together with the ongoing efforts of our developers, support staff, and anti-hack teams to stop the exploits these companies use and help players who have become victims of their operations, we hope the Token can help make World of Warcraft a safer and more enjoyable game for all of our players."

Blizzard didn't announce a date for when Tokens will be introduced.
