The issue with most of the comments so far, is none of them make the game "fun". Blizz won't do that. Now if they put in a faction that can only be raised by making "donations", and having that faction have the mounts / pets / faction altering trinkets(orb of deception), that would truly be a gold sink they could control. 1g = 1rep point to friendly, 2g to honored, 5 g to revered, 10g to exalted. But they would have to have extremely cool items. At friendly maybe consumable appearance buffs, honored have pets, revered have non consumed toys, and exalted have the mounts. Exalted could even have those items that you can buy at the blizz store.

I absolutely love your idea!

I definitely agree that it would be nice to be able to buy stuff from the Blizzard store with my gold (legally). I added my own suggestion on the matter a few posts down...

The only thing I would add to your idea is to make the items from the Vendor BoA. To be able to share the rewards with alts would be a nice touch after sinking so much into Exalted.

The AQ gates were good for this, but of course, they stopped that...

That's the most creative thing I've read all day. It's only 5 AM, but that's a good start :). Donation based factions are perfect, and would undoubtably suck the bank dry for at least a few people I know.

that reminds me of the shattered sun title. of course, blowing 1k gold on a title back then felt like breaking the bank.
