I have to agree. The human element is important and people need to remember that. Having to do it manually encourages people to interact more. Doing so in stress tests - even for random quests - meant I had much more social interaction with people than I do in Retail (where I have none at all) and it made the experience so much more fun.
Even with reduced functionality, this addon will change the social structure of Classic in a detrimental way. It really needs to be broken by Blizz.
I think he does, but I also think he just does not care about classic or the community, just as his standings as an author. He does not care if he breaks the game doing it.
Suu…it’s listed in your issues page (attunement parsing)
And what will prevent players from downloading and running previous versions with the parsing active ?
Auto inviting and talent tree parsing are being removed from the dungeon portion.
I agree with attunement parsing, it sucks inviting someone and getting everyone there only to find out someone isnt attuned.
Edit: looks like attunement parsing isnt in the addon either.
Looks like WoW classic is BFA (Battle for Addons) after all. This is why we can’t have nice things.
Ok so it’s removed.
What prevents players from downloading previous versions where it is active ?
What’s your smaller fear?
You have to whisper the creator to even be on the list.
You edited your post while I was typing 
Issues that are open are not implemented and live, its only a way to keep my ideas saved somewhere so I don’t forget about it^^
I can break the communication to previous versions of the addon if needed.
I think the fact that there have been so many discussions and concerns over this addon in virtually every corner of the internet, is proof enough that this addon will have a large, negative impact on the community.
If we’re having such passionate disagreements now about an addon we can’t even use yet because the game isn’t even out yet, just think of how bad and how toxic this is going to get once Classic goes live.
First, prove that.
Second, who cares HOW MUCH they were used.
Weak argument.
WTB Blizz response
Please kill this addon
Older addons can and will crash your game. If they dont you get spammed with a lua error message.
I say remove any and all automation from the add on and it’ll be okay.
This isn’t retail. This is static…LUA isn’t changing
Dosent mean that an older version will still work. Elvui has multiple updates and if you dont update it you get errors/ thongs not working.
You have to whisper a predetermined phrase to get auto invited. That’s not social interaction and the player could be on the john when you do this.
But lets step out of raids and dungeons. Let’s say you need to kill an elite. You show up to said elite and no one is there on your layer (in the immediate vicinity) so you hop in the old ClassicLFG tool under custom and see “LFM Hogger, whisper invite.” You whisper “invite” get in the group, kill Hogger, and then leave said group. Which is exactly how it works in retail with the exception you don’t have to whisper a join word. Without this tool, you’d have to ask guildies to help, or ask others in your layer for help. That’s the social interaction you are sacrificing for the efficiency of completing a quest.
Chat channels are cross layers. So you could just as easily say “lfm hogger” in the world chats and still get a party.
Now don’t you think it’s because of the add-on itself ?
If the current verison works fine today it will also work fine next week.
A lot of the add-on bugs were porting issues, not removing add-on features.
You could, but why do that when you can auto join a group and never say a word other than “invite” to those people. You could do the same in retail with world quests and yet most people don’t if no one is around. They hop into the old custom group finder and find a group without saying a word. If that option exists people will use it because it is easier.
