Brack was right. People thought they did, but didn't

Warlock population dropped too.

Warlock population was never really strong until they turned then into mages.

I did lose my head briefly. But no worries, my attitude has shifted. Or, perhaps better to say, the trolls’ influence over how I feel has been eliminated. Ythisens’s posts went a long way in assuring me that the Classic devs are being influenced by neither the merely misguided souls who want a more ‘modern’ feel to Classic, nor the blatant trolls hellbent on sabotaging the project or simply stirring the pot for their own enjoyment. It’s easy to get caught up in all the nonsense that goes on on this forum and let it bring you down. At least for me it was. But that’s on me. To let other people actually have an influence on my attitude is ridiculous. Especially those who exist on this forum soley for that purpose.

Despite all the calls for change, ‘improvements’, etc on this forum the devs haven’t deviated an inch from that authenticity principle at the core of the Classic experience. And that’s all that matters. For my own part I adopted an early New Year’s resolution not to quote trolls and feed them the attention they so desire. I’ve been doing a pretty good job. When I do reference them it’s mostly just to poke fun at their absurdity because…well, if you can’t laugh at trolls then what fun are they?

So I enter the upcoming year full of optimism and hope. Now if the devs just reconsider loot sharing and drop the idea of sharding into a well those hopes will be completely fulfilled.

Exactly, it’s the reason I keep quoting you.

Only a troll would make such an absurd statement with no plan to actually follow through with it.

So I tried out the private servers and while I do think they’re actually very nice they do have quite a lot of inaccuracies that diminish the experience.

All the complaints about using the static 1.12 version of the server mechanics are correct.

Everything from the bosses dying too quickly to abilities that just don’t work as they originally did.

As for where Classic WoW is going. I have no idea where Activision is taking it, but I hope that the team in charge of the project wants the original game back as much as I do.

There are a lot of players now days shilling for the present game features as if they are required in order to play the game. Everything from Guild banks a seemingly mundane feature that never existed in the original classic wow, to raid finder that most agree is a game breaking feature.

As of the comment in support of the private servers; they are far from righteous in their cause. So far I have yet to play on a private server that has no corrupt behavior from its administrators. I am not speaking about inaccuracies but specifically about their hypocrisy on the subject.

Then again, its sad to see that Activision is also just vile in this regard when you dig down deep and see what they are doing. Not talking about Classic WoW here on that.

couple things with just this, no one is serioulsy asking for LFR in Classic, and no ‘most’ do not agree , just like everything else, most do not agree.

Actually there were some serious posts of people asking for LFR and Dungeon finder.

These people were clearly articulated and were not just forum trolls or something of that nature. The truth is, it’s an unpopular feature to the Classic WoW community, but it’s not a feature that 100% of the population despises.

It’s easy to estimate that less than 1% of the population wants LFR, so then it’s also logical to ascertain that “most” of the players agree that LFR is not welcome in Classic WoW.

Your move.

lol no, not LFR any that mentioned LFR were not serious, as for Dungeon Finder, i think pretty much whoever put that forward were talking about the interface that Classic had not the queable, no one seriously ask the LFD we have, or at least if they actually were should not be taken seriously .

I would rather not label people, but if they continue to put forth LFR then yah that label would fit. You can be really articulate even when trying to get a rise out of people too sadly.

If you are meaning just the CLassic fans, of COURSE,lol, and I would not put it as high as 1%, I am a fan of LFR but no way do I want it in Classic.

? My move for what? I think I may misunderstood who you were talking about,lol. but ok Queen to Queens Pawn 4

Are you telling me Starman was not serious when he was supporting Dungeon Finder? There was another very serious post about LFR almost a year ago now by some paladin guy. I cannot remember his name, but he was 100% serious about LFR and Dungeon finder because he said that he simply did not have the time to play in a guild and that these features were key for his enjoyment.

Those two were not the only ones either. You can go look for them on the old forums if you like, the posts still exist but for what ever reason I cannot link things or even reference things into this forum for what ever reasons… Likely I have no idea yet how to operate this forum correctly.

Very specifically said less than 1%, meaning a number so small it does not matter in practical terms and thus should be ignored. Regardless of that point, there have indeed been those who do support those features as I sated.

Unfortunately now I feel as I am arguing something for the sake of making a point too you, and that is a waste of time.

Interesting OP.

Seriously, if the blues would simply communicate more in the forum it would help. I think the vibe from the Classic announcement and Blizzcon material was positive, and it would be easy for them to keep that rolling.

I stilll think they can and will deliver a solid and fun Classic product.

Pretty sure he wasn’t talking about the queable form.

Yah one guy a year ago, who honestly could have serious, but how do you know he was not just trying to get a rise out of people by asking for queable LF tools? I never took any of that seriously, and if you noticed none of the LFR was ever very vigorously defended as an inclusion in Classic.

Liek I said, no one really ever seriously put those forward, compare to Guild Banks, transmog, were people actually tried to defend their inclusion.

Yah the new forum has some nice features, but takes getting used to for sure :O)

Its ok either way, but honestly aside it has never been seriously brought up , but I still would not put even a percentage point as to people who really think LFR would be needed in Classic.

Lol, maybe, but I understand your point, you are just taking some people randomly stating something without really supporting it as evidence of anyone really wanting those features.

I have just merely called them rats if they said something that was blatantly inflammatory.

Rat RiPieces list

Slugs
Starman
Curt

The last one that I have a beaf with still is Ziryus. I have a feeling that he will exist from now on until and through a bit of classic. He’s quite amusing.

Classic will never happen became…
Classic will have changes…
Which became, classic will lose momentum…
Which then became, “It won’t last past 2 years”

Every step forward he changes the song he sings. I can’t wait until blizzard announces TBC servers and a fresh wave of vanilla progression while the original servers are allowed to exist, untouched.

Rats will be rats.

@stud

Lol, I remember when you started posting here. You had some theory that Starman wanted the game to succeed. Starman was the same as curt, but a bit better spoken. He had advocated for class changes, group finders, and qol aspects like dual spec. He would then claim to be no change. He was the oppitomy of rat. One of the more amusing ones.

My favorite was some belf hunter? She would argue that DKs, goblin race, tbc races, and crap should get included. I remember I got sick of her and called her a fat chick irl. She lost her sh!t with some huge post, I got suspended, and I never saw her again.

Wow, you really are trying to get banned, aren’t you?

Yeah… That one is an interesting piece of work, it seems.

I actually stated before that I made a mistake about what they stated in the video , admitted to it, and apologized. People kept bumping it. I don’t put my tail between my legs.

You didn’t apologize for your ignorance in that thread at all. You propagated a lie, then you slithered away without a peep when people called you out.

In another thread after I replied to banjaa about it. I tried to edit my op but I’m on my phone and I didn’t want to bump it. I didn’t lie I made a mistake because I didn’t understand what they meant from the panel.

You can call me a idiot for a mistake lol, but don’t call me a liar.

Completely disagree.
Theres alot of relevant concerns that people have.
Is sharding going to stay beyond the first couple of zones and after launch is a huge question alot of us want to know the answer for.

No, he definitely was. I remember him stating that forming a group and traveling to the dungeon were pointless and resulted in no positive social interaction.

It’s because this forum is full of disappointed retail players who don’t even like Classic, but would still prefer it over bfA.
