with bots take one group out 5 more shows up
When do you guys start banning people who report for EVERYTHING even if most of the time theres no rules being broken.
Lets really start clearing up toxicity in this game.

We have talked about this before and I have agreed to disagree.
I dont like someone getting boosted for levels, not for gear, nor for achieves. I just believe its against the spirit of the game

This contract will need to be read and accepted before a player can continue into the world of Azeroth.
I’m curious how you are going to enforce the requirement that players actually “read” the contract before continuing into the game.
they have to scroll to the bottom and it’s a painfully slow scroll? 
That’s a totally fair stance to have. You aren’t alone in feeling that way.
Blizzard disagrees with it currently however. Things could change though. Look what happened to multiboxing for example.

that will be funny what word is in page 5 par 7 section 10 lol
there are rules for that if you go into the tos agreement it states that you can be punished for false reporting. if one has never been punished for that one can assume that what they are reporting is legit. I get 1-4 ingame mails each day for reporting bot farmers and boost sellers In trade. Never once have I been slapped down by blizzard for this behavior and assume I never will.

it will be like most contracts in the sense that its up to you the signee to read what you are signing if you choose to ignore and sign anyway it will push you into a contract no matter what and will give blizzard full authority to enforce the tos

Multiboxing was a special case where Blizzard felt the need to carve out a specific “AUTOMATED KEY/MOUSE REPLICATION IS BOTTING, STOP IT!” rule within the multiboxing realm because so many people were doing it and it entirely violated the “one keypress, one action” philosophy.
It had no effect on those of us who do it legit.

it is easy to see who is doing it legit now that we have access to all kinds of toys like never-ending treasure chest and turnip punching bag or the Brewfest chow down trophy
I just started taking advantage of them. Best ones are the leather farmers. Just find one and stand on them on a skinner and go crazy.
I found one yesterday and got about 3200 leather in 45 minutes or so and just stood there clicking.

It is when gear upgrades are attached to rating

And that is my stance because I DO believe multiboxing, even with something like ISBOXER is a valid playstyle. Back in the day I did a few dungeons on my own. It was a fun alternative.
MUltiboxing is kicked out, but AH goblins and boosters are no problem

That’s not exactly how it went down.
They banned the software because they claimed bots were using it to circumvent detection. For roughly 15 years they were okay with players using it.
Who’s to say after 18 years they don’t decide boosting encourages bots to flood chat with ads and promotes 3rd party RMT?

The “i disagree with you so im going to report you” crowd is massive, and while its against the rules i highly doubt its enforced. Im saying they need to enforce it, as that behaviour is also extremely toxic and society is better off without such people.
The amount of times i have had posts flagged, then restored because they didnt break any rules on this forum but people disagree with my opinion, and likewise with others, is indicative of the diseased rot these people represent.
Im not saying they should not enforce their anti-toxicity rules, im saying lets go. Dont go halfway though, lets go all the way. Clear the garbage out.

nice you might have denied some of them leather
i do not know if its hits or a timer after the first hit
Thank you Blizzard! This is more important now more than ever. Trade chat will hopefully become more more family friendly and less toxic.
Great job Blizzard!
I look forward to your detailed data-driven exploration of this post-release. Try to use more than 1 or 2 data points though.
Really curious how you’re going to quantify an abused report to a legit one. Will it just be like… what you feel?

- Having to accept the social contract once on login (and maybe again if they update it).
- The right click report Character options got a makeover so that there are more categories and choices.
- Last have also recently been utilizing Suspensions for accounts with multiple infractions, not just Silences.
I took some screen captures for you from MrGM on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fpmkgkVDCM Credit for the Video goes to him.
New drop down menu
Report Name
Report Cheating
Report Gameplay Sabotage (This is mostly for Battlegrounds/PvP)
I don’t know if the Right Click report on a line of Chat changed or not. He did not have a video of that. That is the one where you report language, spam, etc.
