ya congratulations, you guys asked and got something that doesn’t negatively harm other players. good luck with diminishing other people’s accomplishments for your own selfish desires though!
edit:
pro tip, if you focus on the present/future rather than crying about the past, you’ll be a lot happier! There’s bound to be things removed from Shadowlands, you better get cracking on getting them instead of moping on the forums!
ITS A GAME! Come on. You are using WoW as a parallel to teach children how the world works? I really dont understand what you are trying to build your argument up as.
And this gem. What does this have to do with World of Warcraft? We have to use WoW as a mechanism to teach children some sort of lesson about the work and pay structure? You are reaching soooo far on this.
How about teaching children this. If you feel a cause is important to you, you find people who feel the same way. You work hard to make your voice heard and gain support for your cause. If you garner enough support and have a reasonable and good cause, you can effectively change something which you think is unfair, or that you feel would be for the better good?
Thats if we are still trying to make WoW this life lesson teaching mechanism.
If not. Just give players the ability to access the cool things that they want.
Does your boss carry out a list of jobs that completely coincides with yours?
“Equal effort implies equal reward.” Well, yes. I think it’s worth adding “with equal effort.”
Then there will be “unless the number of prizes is limited. Then the bias of the distributor of prizes decides everything.”
You said this, in response to a long, tortured discourse over changing how the game prestige system works specifically so you can get a retry at the MT appearances - is there any other way to see it other than comparing changing the game principles to suffrage? Your posts are taken collectively, not separately.
Not necessarily true. If enough people want it then it may very well come back.
I know your new to the conversation but I personally don’t want any of the mage tower appearances that I don’t already have, I just want others to have access to them.
Would you be against it coming back as long as it was challenging to obtain? If so then post why your against it. Preferably for reasons other than “Because Blizzard promised” because they never actually promised that they would never return. Unless someone can link me to a post saying otherwise.
I never understand why people would defend exclusivity… Exclusive deals, items, or even full on video games do not benefit the community nor the individual player ever. They only exist as a market trap and nothing more…
On a side note, I don’t care about this Mage Tower appearance thing. Just adding my quick two-cents on exclusivity as an idea as a whole. I just don’t understand why anyone as a consumer would defend exclusivity… It’s bad for us.
If those who demand will form an organization, will conduct campaigning, go to rallies and all that … Then you say that “the skin of a druid is equal to the struggle for rights”?
Because some people firmly believe their happiness depends on others not having what they have that’s the ultimate root of their argument, which has been repeated throughout this thread this whole week
welcome to an mmorpg where players want ways to show their accomplishments. that’s where exclusive rewards come into play do better and stop crying.
it’s not hard to understand that there’s players that play for the prestige and accomplishment where as others just play for mostly fun. just because the two ideologies don’t always mesh, doesn’t mean it’s ok to take away from one, in this case the prestigious player.
you people asking for mt crap losing nothing from not having it. stop being selfish and do better.
No, they believe that something that is said to be a limited time thing should stay it, despite people wanting it different purely because they are big sads they didn’t get it.
Christ, theres about 12 appearances I didn’t get, and I still don’t want them removed because I knew the timeframe and didn’t feel like pushing those ones. A choice, one blizz is fine to not protect me from
Again not what I asked. I’m asking for the promise they are never returning, not that they are going away. Because yes, they went away, now they can come back, see how that works? Still dancing around my very obvious and direct questions though I see.
No one is arguing that Blizzard said they were going away. We’re arguing that they never specified how long.
No, I would not and it’s rather repugnant you would suggest so, and let me explain why. This is a deferential pursuit - a video game - that comes with its set of rules and rewards. Rules and rewards that are explained in advance.
Suffrage was the movement by mostly women to earn the right to participate in democracy, to get the right to vote.
How you can compare getting an time-locked skin through collective moping on the forums to what women did to get the vote is absurd. It should not require explanation frankly.
