Thanks a lot Blizz glad to hear this trash is taken out! I was opposed to this kind of addon.

THANK YOU!! The community will appreciate this!

Kelzar-agamaggan · August 24, 2019, 1:08am

There is no way for it to do that in classic…

Hammis-tortheldrin · August 24, 2019, 1:08am

every step you take…

Mobilecherpn-frostmourne · August 24, 2019, 1:08am

So basically people will still use it until the first patch comes out. Which who knows how long that will be

Learn how the thing worked its nothing more than a different interface on chat spam…

Objections you disagree with ! = invalid objections. I’m sorry, but you’re not an absolute authority. Take a seat. If you’re this upset by it, you’re more than welcome to find a more productive medium (such as anew thread, or contribution and promotion of a new project) to remedy the action Blizzard and us rejoiceful have taken.

Dominiquê-proudmoore · August 24, 2019, 1:08am

It’s funny that the crowd whining about #NoChanges called for you to CHANGE THE API to kill this. Hypocrisy at its finest.

Mobilecherpn-frostmourne · August 24, 2019, 1:09am

Yeah soon ™ friend

Poolfish-stormrage · August 24, 2019, 1:09am

You are a prime example of why the human race hasn’t reached the stars yet.

Thank god! That addon would have ruined the actual Classic Experience

Savax-feathermoon · August 24, 2019, 1:09am

LMAO at all the Retail fanboys upset about this…

Bornakk:

We’ve been closely following the community discussion around this add-on for WoW Classic, as well as analyzing it to make sure we understand how it works. After careful examination, we believe the nature of ClassicLFG is incompatible with our social design for Classic. Thus, in an upcoming patch (in the weeks following launch), we will be adding restrictions to the Classic add-on API that will significantly limit this add-on and others like it.

In line with what we shared at BlizzCon last year, we intend to be very careful about allowing add-on functionality that might undermine aspects of the social dynamics that are core to the Classic experience, even in cases like this where it’s clear that the addon author had no ill intent and was simply trying to provide a service to the Classic community. Ultimately, if a streamlined group-finding system was something we considered compatible with Classic, we would have kept the modern Premade Group Finder tool rather than choosing to remove it from the Classic client.

It’s difficult to articulate a clear-cut rule for exactly when an add-on crosses the line. However, when an add-on goes beyond presenting information or providing aesthetic customization, and attempts to create an interconnected social network that relies on other players also using that same add-on, we are likely to scrutinize it particularly closely.

Why not now? If you wait weeks, its still going to ruin the classic dungeon system for weeks before you actually decide to fix it?

Thank you so much for protecting our Classic experience!
