World of Warcraft features tokens that can be used to extend game time. Some players have gotten used to buying these tokens with in-game currency and not spending any money on the Blizzard game at all.
Blizzard is dealing a blow to such individuals. Starting November 21, a restriction is being introduced: World of Warcraft subscription tokens cannot be purchased with in-game gold unless the player has spent real money to purchase and consume at least 30 days of game time.
As a result, starting November 21 (Tuesday), those facing the World of Warcraft token purchase restriction will have to spend real money on Blizzard’s game. The restriction will not affect the redemption of existing tokens, but they will not help lift the purchase restriction — players will have to pay.
