Do devs only respond on Twitter these days or what

You got nearly 500 posts, would you want to talk to the people on here?

Probably has something to do with the intentional shortage of CS staff they have after they fired half of all their CS staff a couple years ago. Less CS staff means more money, and the only thing they have to do is claim theyā€™re dedicated to improving communication, without actually following up on it.

Between all my characters from classic, I probably have a lot more than that

I typed a frustrated noise once, just one letter repeated like 8 times, and was actioned.

Iā€™m just saying, imagine trying to explain your design vision to the people on these forums. They are going to ā€œwhat aboutā€ you to death :rofl: I get it though, Iā€™d like for Blizz to be more communicative here as well, the advantage of the forums is the investment you have to make to be here, you have to at least have a wow account to speak. You would think these are the people youā€™d want to speak to the most.

Blizz : We see you like our borrowed power systems so much we are going to continue them next expansion

Players: No we really hate them in fact we despise them

Blizz : What you like them so much you want twice as many to start of with

Players : No we want none

Blizz: what you donā€™t think twice as many is enough . Well then to give you all the borrowed powers you want we will pull out our special D-20 and what comes up we will give you

Players: :man_facepalming: Oh god please roll a 1

Didnā€™t they integrate Twitter into WoW? Why not put a tab into the ESC menu that says TWEETS and when you click on it, you get all wow related content.

I remember ghostcrawler saying years ago that his boss always told them ā€œdonā€™t read the forumsā€.

Who was that boss? Mr J Allen Brack, President of Blizzard, thatā€™s who.

So I doubt those instructions have changed.

The Devs are scared of these forumsā€¦they havent been around here since 2007ā€¦damn shameā€¦used to enjoy reading blue posts.

So true. So true

Well they never post, then will post some nonsense and that makes everyone mad because we want info. Then the blues say, see you all mad we arenā€™t going to post. Itā€™s a bad cycle that they started.

ā€œWe communicate to our player base about the hard-hitting issues! Just look at this MDI topic we made that nobody cares about. See? We communicate!ā€
