Only he’s not wrong. Tons of people demanding changes/features being added to the game is how they ended up there. Flying in TBC and beyond was requested by people who played during vanilla. That’s only one example but there’s been many others. People who had a hard time getting groups were the ones responsible for the dungeon finder. As soon as we got that, people complained about sitting in queues too long, so we got the cross server aspect put in also. It’s not hard to see that the things we hate about the game are the very things that several players asked for. As I said in another thread about this…this is literally a REAL case of “you think you do, but you don’t”.
I agree with what you said however on the fact that he’s not the only one who shares that view or belief. I’m sure that there are MANY of us who can attest to this and were there and saw the forum posts that demanded those things be added to the game or changed in some way
