Guild Banks Pt. 14

[Redheadchild-kul-tiras (Redheadchild)]

Fesz is that you? Man u lost a lot of weight really fast.

[Jomjom-bloodscalp (Jomjom)]

Guildbanks are QoL and there’s no good enough reason to add them that counters the imbalance that comes with all that spare bank space.

I can’t tell if you’re serious or just being sarcastic. Assuming you’re serious…
Ahem…
Bank alts

[Anadann-icecrown]

There is one difference between bank alts and guild banks with regards to storage space. Guild banks are shared storage space while bank alts are not. Unless players decide to go back to account sharing which is a violation of ToS, that does make storage more convenient as it eliminates the need for either mail or trades.

[Padrepwn-kiljaeden (Padrepwn)]

What gbanks also do is make deposits much less convenient. With GBA’s you just find the nearest mailbox(far more of these than banks. Pretty convenient) and “deposit” into the mail. With gbanks you have to either physically go to the city to deposit, mail to an alt to deposit later, or mail to an officer. All of which shifts that convenience around quite a bit depending on PoV of the user. Gbanks actually spread the convenience and inconvenience around.
This is also why this is not just convenience.

@Starman-zangarmarsh

So where are the other requests?

What will happen AFTER Naxx?

I don’t think theres been any announcement or blue posts describing what might happen AFTER TBC would have been launched? Let’s say Classic becomes and continues to stay a huge success and the community that this game developed is rekindled. Are we going to get that bizarre Private Realm style “We’ve had these servers running for 9 years on 1.12 and some people have 5,000,000,000 across 10 maxed out players” which honestly never happened in the timespan that Classic had. It wasn’t until Cata+ …

A Very very Minor Change that no one will complain about

Please make soul shards stack. I dont think it would be the end of the world if they did.

Achievements and Xmogs

Sorry if this is a repeat post. I wanted to just say I don’t want achievements, transmogs, ect… in Classic. However, I do want achievements, transmogs, ect… FROM Classic to apply to my WoW account. Or maybe just transmogs and mounts.

Can we keep transmog in Vanilla?

It's probably the best change ever put into the game and is one of the only things that wouldn't change how the community interacts with one another, the way a built in quest helper, or LFG system might. Simply adds a little fun and flavor to your character.

Character model question

I know most people here are classic “affictionados” that will scream “NO CHANGE”, but I would like to know if we gonna get quality of life changes that we have on retail like new hairstyle, new models and upright orcs. Thoughts? If you disagree, can you argue more than just “it wasn’t the classic I played 14 years ago, I want those low polly models”?

Transmog will be available please & think about blood elfs?

Will transmog be available please ? I really hope so …

How do we bring back the authentic experience? Time, thus re-tuning

I’ve been meaning to make a post like this for a while now. Disclaimer: I am not insinuating or anywhere close to saying that Vanilla raids will be difficult - even with re-tuning. Nor, am I trying to make raid game play more difficult. I want to make this clear since it seems to be a very sensitive topic. I will also be using private servers as an indicator of 1.12. Take accuracy as you wish. As a proponent of re-tuning, the question is often asked, why? 1.12 fans will say things will …

Adding Some Goodies

I’ve been thinking about Classic quite a bit lately and was wondering about things that can be added without taking away the Original feel. The most basic thing is Loot. You have the same dungeons/raids but add more goodies. What goodies? Mounts, cosmetic style items (since there’s no Transmog), pets. I know Classic will already have some of these drops, but expanding on the library of item drops encourages people to repeat the content. Since Classic won’t have “old” content from its POV playe…

Please Disable Twinking or allow people to queue for NON-twink bg's

Pretty straight forward. I have twinked back in Vanilla, but only in response to the fact that I HAD to in order to enjoy pvp’ing in lower brackets (outside of the initial vanilla launch period, before they even introduced the 10-19 bracket). Personally I have never had more fun in pvp than when I could enjoy leveling in battlegrounds as an alternative to grinding/questing, and while there were classes that had obvious strengths/weaknesses in certain brackets, back before twinking it primarily c…

And that only took 3 minutes of scrolling.

[Ristra-suramar (Ristra)]

I’m sure they reimplemented that one hour delay in the mail system just so every Tom, Dick and Harry can bypass it using the non vanilla QOL convenience of guild banks.

Or opening a trade window…?

That requires actually traveling to meet the person which is the intent of reimplementing that one hour delay.

So? Worthless facts. Might as well include the price of tea in China.

Not a worthless fact.

Blizzard has stated that the one hour delay in the mail system is being reimplemented specifically to actually require players to travel and meet if they want to transfer items “instantly”.

Guild banks would allow players to bypass that one hour delay and the need to travel to meet.

Johnny is in Gadgetzan working on the blacksmithing quests and needs more thorium. He asks if anyone has thorium to spare and BILLY says he has several stacks that Johnny can have.

Billy tells Johnny he is in Ironforge. Johnny doesn’t want to be bothered to travel to Ironforge but doesn’t want to wait the hour for mail. Johnny tells Billy to just drop it in the guild bank and he will withdraw it immediately.

Total fabrication of “feature”.

Mail to an alt is instant. This is nothing more than some lame attempt to keep beating that drum.

Good news though. That drumming keeps Guild Banks at the top.

[Padrepwn-kiljaeden (Padrepwn)]

Who would think that discussion would take place on a discussion forum? Also asking for changes is about as authentic as you can get. It’s been happening since the forums became a thing. In Vanilla. Regardless whether or not I agree with any suggestions I haven’t seen blizz say stop discussing anything. I mean you could say they tried to make the Vanilla server topic go away but that didn’t pan out and here we are. Nor is that completely accurate.
Now sure. They have said some things were not happening. They however have not said don’t discuss this or that. That is still user choice at this point.
Simple fix for those “troll” threads. Don’t feed them. User choice.

[Fateweaver-misha (Fateweaver)]

Who would think that discussion would take place on a discussion forum?

Not saying it doesn’t/shouldn’t. Just pointing out that Starman’s assertion was incorrect.

[Starman-zangarmarsh (Starman)]

I didn’t say there weren’t other discussions, the context was there weren’t other discussions with so many replies.

[Fateweaver-misha (Fateweaver)]

Sure, we’ll go with that.

[Starman-zangarmarsh (Starman)]

Not my fault you didn’t understand the context. I mean do you really think I meant zero discussions? Lol. Omg I’m laughing.

The context of the original post was that one request would lead to a bunch of others. So where are the 14 threads on transmog?

Spoiler alert: they don’t exist

This thread ALONE has 2000 replies. The ones you quoted have what? 40?

[Fateweaver-misha (Fateweaver)]

So where are the 14 threads on transmog?

People still don’t realize that there were never 14 threads. The “14” was a joke.

Don’t move the goalposts

You honestly think there aren’t 14 threads asking for transmog? Or do the requests only count if they hit a certain number of replies?

[Starman-zangarmarsh (Starman)]

Still waiting to hear how you’re comparing a handful of threads with less than 50 replies with this one that has 2000

[Fateweaver-misha (Fateweaver)]

How many threads have there been asking to make Classic™ items transfer to retail?

I linked at least 2.

Here’s another

Please reconsider your stance on retail/classic reward linking

Mounts and companions you get in classic SHOULD NOT be usable across multiple characters on the same classic account, however, you should be able to have these rewards in retail. This will increase the longevity of classic. While I can fully understand the argument for “people will just play classic for the achievements/mounts/companions instead of classic itself and the people who want to play” that is not in and of itself a bad thing. Some people only still play retail for mounts/companies/ap…

THIS one got blue responses.

[Starman-zangarmarsh (Starman)]

And it fizzled in January.

Thanks for proving my point.

[Fateweaver-misha (Fateweaver)]

And it fizzled in January

And a host of new threads of the same topic have cropped up.

Don’t move the goalposts

[Starman-zangarmarsh (Starman)]

How many of those topics spawned 2000 replies?

None

Which was my point.

[Fateweaver-misha (Fateweaver)]

Which was my point.

Requests only count if they hit a certain number of replies…Got it…

[Starman-zangarmarsh (Starman)]

Do you really count things like flying which is going to go nowhere?

[Fateweaver-misha (Fateweaver)]

And it fizzled in January.

Funny. This one fizzled in February.

Yes, I’m necroing this thread.
