Recently I have decided to stop playing World of Warcraft. The game is to time consuming to have a normal life. The question now is what to do with my character. Blizzard has stated that selling and account for a profit is subject to account ban. Meaning that all characters in the world of Warcraft are owned by blizzard. But after developing a character for several years a sense of entitlement starts to arise. It can be argued that the program World of Warcraft is a tool, and what one person creates in the game is there intellectual property. Since there is a contract that Blizzard makes all players sign so blizzard is in its full rights. Even though it is wrong I cant look at all the work I have accomplished as blizzards property. Another effect that comes up in developing a World of Warcraft character is that the character becomes an extension of the player, like raising a pet. At least for me I would rather have someone keep building on the progress that I have started then to have the account go unplayed. So what would you do; stop playing and let the account sit dormant in blizzards servers, or sell the account to another player who will use it?
