No, it doesn’t.
Well, he isn’t Blizz so I don’t give his opinion on what should be allowed much weight, especially since it’s been allowed for 20 years.
Again, existed for 20 years with the three or four of you finally finding a reason to whine about it. It’s a non-issue. Especially since it’s just as likely someone clicked thru the quest faster than he did without any addon what so ever.
Instead of whining, except the fact that older versions of the game, i.e., classic, included a myriad of these types of quests. And there is a reason they don’t make them like that anymore. Add ons don’t need banned as quests aren’t designed in this manner anymore. So, use an addon, sit there and click, or whine about something that isn’t going to get changed.
You aren’t Blizzard either, so it’s not up to you to decide whether or not his experiences are valid or not.
This is disingenous. We’re not playing the same game that has existed in the last 20 years and this has been a problem many times before. As I stated, any time there is a large influx of players all trying to level at the same time. We saw this in Classic 2019. We saw it in TBC. We even saw it when the HC servers were originally launched and, unsurprisingly, we see it again. This is a relatively new problem created by Blizzard putting more players on a single server/layer than the game was original designed for. I played on launch back in 2004 and not once did I have to wait in line to complete a quest like I had to in 2019.
All this player is asking for is for the automation players are using to jump the queue to be disabled so they can play the game without being forced to do the same things these other players are doing. This is valid and reasonable. You’re welcome to believe that this level of automation is fine for the game, feel free to elaborate on its virtues, but telling someone to just join in on the activities that are causing them problems is pretty bad form.
All the best to you, and Merry Christmas.
Boy, they better not ban questie. Just install it, legit best mod for classic. You’d probably be 60 by now if you had it. It does a lot more than auto accept, like a lot more. Wanna know where a quest giver pats? Wanna know what mobs drop what, want to see party members quest progress? Yeah it’s nice.
Sorry it screwed you OP, but try it, you’ll like the mod.
All you have to do is hold shift while talking to the npc and the auto feature wont activate
These addons don’t do any magic. They just use blizzard default API on npc interactions. You can achieve the same thing through macros. These APIs were around for about 20 years.
They are pretty handy for bulk turn ins, like badges n tokens. I personally don’t use em for quests as it’s literally 1 click.
Auto-accept and auto-turn in still requires input by the player to initiate the process, and it is that interaction that makes it allowed. If Blizzard were to ban it, we would run into a situation where players who have faster reactions start getting banned, because those who are slower report them thinking that players was using an add-on.
Beyond that if the quest add-ons need to be banned for this semi-automation, then macros and add-ons that work the same way such Healbot or Pally Power would be on the chopping block.
Everyone should be banned from WoW
Just download the addon. Stop being a baby about it.
Lol who even does that quest.
If he’s not immediately there and up you skip.
Everyone knows the rules
