UI addons stay, combat addons go.

irony indeed.
works on a toxic addon with a toxic name, complains about toxicity in the community.
checks out, I guess.
and addon that can be used for raids should go.
Add-ons need to go and improvements to the base UI need to be extremely well done and highly customizable.

Yeah, I mean, I was just starting with lua and that project was the easiest one that I could find to start contributing to an addon that people actually uses in-game hehe.
I keep seeing people toss out this term but nobody seems to explain what it means.
What exactly is a “combat addon” and what isn’t?
Anyone?

Stay, and remain untouched as well, no nerfs or breaking any of them.

Addons should stay, but we shouldn’t need them. Imo

I think they should go. (Addons go)
Reason being I don’t like having to download external programs to make the game playable.

Like what?
My take: whenever a dungeon, raid or pvp group “requires” you to have a certain add-on in order to run said content, that would be a combat add-on. I believe that would include anything that provides scores or readouts with arbitrary numerical values, no matter how ‘sense’ it made to the creators of said add-ons.
I’ve not seen any dungeons or raids that require proper Feng Shui application as of yet (a loss), so anything that solely modifies a person’s UI or RP preferences, without taking into account any immediate enemies, environmental dangers, or like, would not qualify.
So like the built-in combat log?
Yeah lets remove addons and finally kill the game
I’m not even going to read this thread. I’m just going to assume its people whining about weakauras again without really understanding what weakauras are or what they can and can’t do.

This was an issue a few expansions ago. If it is still not fixed then it will never be fixed.

This is a very real issue many of us older players deal with. Having certain addons that actually help visually and with accompanying sound for those with poor eyesight or color blindness, is really helpful.

So if I require RP addons. Then its now a combat add-on. Got it.
What is an arbitrary value though. Something scoring a thing doesnt sound arbitrary to me.

UI/Design add-ons are surely to stay. I’m also using +90 add-ons which made the game far more accessible for me.
In my experience, most of the addon complainers don’t even know what weakauras is. They just focus on damage meters and DBM (which isn’t even that useful).
