I’m sorry your experience in therapy wasn’t the best. Different doctors do approach things in different ways. Maybe you didn’t draw one that was a good fit for you.
Better luck next time!

Lol you’re trolling but this is unironically the correct take. People are way too over-invested and suffering from addiction. They don’t enjoy the game anymore but think there is too much sunk cost.
It’s okay to quit. You got your enjoyment, and it’s time to move on.

So if I say they should fix their long standing bugs in game instead of ignoring them and being ignorant, it’s only okay to say if I site the example of the horde portal to zuldazar not dropping you at the great seal anymore like if you took the portal from new home nazjatar to zuldazar or the portal from silithus to zuldazar and all they have to do is change the line of code for that particular portal’s exit location to match the exit location of those 2 other portals I mentioned?
Maybe stop reading the forums, but I don’t think you can. I always see your name popping up making excuses for a billion dollar greedy corporation.
People that complain about others making criticisms are basically just insecure.
I never read forums of games unless I’m there to complain.
I post here, because I feel like retail has lost its way.
The remix is just another boring cash grab fomo even.

This. Right here, is actually the dysfunction.
You don’t have a say. To pretend that anybody on this forum does is delusional.
Sit back and enjoy the game if you can.
It’s definitely been tantrum city around here, but it’s usually that way about whatever the streamer topic of the week is. 
Blizz would end up with two and a half players paying for their subs lol

Yep, deep down they know this stuff is boring. People have some major Stockholm syndrome with this game.

If we’re being honest with ourselves I’d say the same could be said about people that are overly wound up about what other people are posting on the WoW forums.

People can’t handle reading negative comments about things they like these days, modern gamers especially. They are some of the most tribal zealots when it comes to defending whatever they think is their favorite game at the moment.

For the most part these are people who have never had much experience developing games or writing computer programs. It’s harder than it looks and some people just can’t see that.
Also, of the millions of people playing this game, all it takes is a few hundred telling each other what they want to hear and they become convinced they speak for “the players”.

Seems like the community can’t decide whether censorship is okay or not!
Censoring you = good.
Censoring topics we enjoy posting on = bad.
Although I’m having fun in this thread so… it’s a bit of a paradox.

People should be able to express their frustration with the game. They may not always do it thoughtfully or remember other people don’t play the game the same exact way they do, but they should be able to express themselves. What I want is a way to mute threads so when “I hate this thing” post #10 pops up, I can just mute it and move on.

What games have you worked on? Writing code is not hard, the bugs and bad game design is from poor managment, poor planning and from game developers that lack talent.
You’re just like Abricot, just another forum regular that just spends a stupid amount of time defending a company that doesn’t care about you one bit.
There are some real valid criticisms with WoW these days, sometimes people just don’t have ability to articualte them well.
This mindset you got going on here, is why there are so many bad games out there in the wild these days.
Why are you on these forums? Feeling a bit insecure in your decision to continue to support this company?

I think that your framing is interesting and also flawed. I enjoy playing WoW, and I also respect the hard work and unique challenges of content creators. There are a lot of people who don’t have experience in creative fields, and who have never really created something themselves, who don’t understand the difference between critique, criticism, and insults. And when gratuitous criticism and insults outweigh actual critique (with actual suggestions), then that’s not much more than emotional venting toward people who don’t really deserve to be vented at. And I think that just venting your spleen at someone who wants to make cool stuff that people enjoy is really insulting and doesn’t have a place in the discourse.
If you think that my perspective is “supporting x company,” then that framing is your problem, not mine.
I worked for a big computer manufacturer and sometimes people would write games as “midnight projects”. Each had it’s own notes file (we had a text based “internet” back when the real internet was still ARPANET). People would get sick of the complaints and release the code.
What we all found is that when we went in and put in all the changes that we “knew must be done” it would more often than not degrade the game.
As for bugs, I’ve worked on many large software products and this one is not really that bad considering how old it is.
As for your ad hominem attack, I’m not defending the company, I’m pointing out what I’ve seen with decades of experience. I’ve heard these complaints before and I’ve seen the software people trying to address them. I’ve been the software person trying to address them. It’s not as easy as it looks.

Probably a retired IBM boomer. Please tell me I’m wrong, lol!!!
Then you should understand this is just how gaming consumers act, but here you are trying to make excuses for game that has been really mismanaged the last several years.
hate to break it to you, but this is just the industry.
