Damn, I never knew you could do that in wow. Played for a bit 15 years ago and liked the game but was not in a position to pay the monthly fee.

Some players doing this are still coasting on a big windfall the game provided around 2015-2016. Especially if they invested that gold.

Casual players can still pay for their monthly by playing the game, but they have to limit their spending and know what they are doing.

The WoW token wasn’t introduced until WoD, so if you played that long ago it wouldn’t have been an option. If you’re ever looking to jump in again though, it’s definitely a useful system if you like to make gold in game.
