Oh I know, and amazing how he disappears for a while then reappears completely ignoring all direct questions and challenges to his “proof”.

No. Not even a little.
Given the state of these forums, I wouldn’t even trust supermajority (75%) votes from this community.

That’s not true. Some want it.
I’m pretty sure they’re a minority, so it doesn’t matter (especially given how lazy blizz has become).

trust the guy who wants to
give rogues cloak of shadows (because no one complains about Forsaken rogues)
oh and while you’re at it, let’s give (Horde) priests the ability to remove pally bubbles (and mage iceblock)
WHAT COULD GO WRONG?

The top players are the top exploiters- they’re the worst players to trust.
Just look at Blizz’s logic at HotS auto bans from reporting.
Problem? Too many toxic players, afkers, griefers in HotS.
Solution? Give those toxic, afkers, griefers the power to report autoban other players.
Brilliant, nobody could possibly see what will come next- oh wait, everyone could, a dead game.

Generally, no. Elections don’t guarantee intelligence, just an ability to get enough votes. (And I’m not talking U.S. politics.)
Retail is what you get when :COUGH: players of top raid … experience :COUGH: get to make decisions. Why would I want elected peers who have a blind focus on raids or PvP, when the people who are quietest and having the most fun in WOW Classic right now appear to be those ignoring the raiders and PvP rankers?
As far as this goes, I trust them enough to not completely screw over WOW Classic because in spite of a few questionable choices, most of what they’ve done is adhere to authenticity and the vanilla experience as it was without developers deciding what it should have been.

no. ‘top’ players tend to be in it for themselves to the detriment of the overall health of the game, and i say this as someone who was once one of those people.

Dear me, did screaming “nostrol scum” not get the result you wanted?
Stop and think for just a second. Do you think you’ve given the people you’re trying to convince to agree to some kind of changes here any reason to want to compromise with you? Setting aside the fact that no one on this forum can actually make decisions about what does or doesn’t happen to Classic WoW.
But setting that aside only for the duration of this one post:
As other people have pointed out, by saying that “players of top raid or pvp experience” should have some authority and somehow count as “elected” despite literally no one except maybe you having voted for them, you’re declaring the vast majority of the game’s content and the vast majority of the game’s playerbase meaningless. I hear there’s a game where Blizzard actually put a top raider in charge because of that “logic.” Go play it, and stop trying to wreck this one.

First,
Democracy does not work. In the words of socrates and plato, it is the “next step up from tyranny”.
You cannot pole an entire games opinion to fix the game, they just leads us to going left and right and not actually fixing the problems. “It is insanity to try to please everyone”.
Those players have vastly more knowledge then the low end players, which means they truly know the problems. They may make suggestions that they think is good and those may or may not be the best suggestion, however, it is still working on the right problem were as the masses of dummies cannot even get that right.
Impressive. Everything you just said was wrong.
The people you would “elect” would focus on problems you believe in–and since your perspective is completely disconnected from reality and utterly self-absorbed, that’s the last place anyone should ever focus.

No, its not, but these are the words of ignorance.
You do realize that no single change has been made because a top pvper said so right?
Blizzard is (or was if you want to put it that way) way to smart for that.
Still avoiding my question I see.
They’re actually extremely intelligent. With the limited resources they had, they took an idea… and made it better.
Practically the basis of entrepreneurship.
I’m sure if they had the funds, they would indeed make their own game.
No, they pirated software and put it on a server. All the code etc was developed all they had to do was link it.
You can develop games for very low cast with free engines like unity, or unreal.
Youre asking for to much when it comes to changes, its better to wait until they release the prefered expansion instead
I would have no problems with letting players make the game, specialy for Retail but completely remaking classes in classic is just something that wont happen
What it seems to me you are overlooking is the design goal of WoW Classic. Blizzards goal was not, and is not, to make a great new game. Their goal was not, and is not, to make an ‘improved’ version of Vanilla WoW. The goal was (and continues to be) to make, as close as they could, a faithful reproduction of a game whose entire history is complete. It exists in the past, warts and all, it is established start to finish. To implement Class balance changes would be completely contrary to the entire design paradigm of WoW Classic.

I dont want to remake them right now, i want to correct major problems with them like the intense mana costs of spells on shaman or ele, or the abusive spell cleave game play on mages (that is against the spirit of classic).
A lot of us want the same thing but for now, the #Nochanges team is too large to fight u need to wait until a better expansion arrives or longer into Classic when all current planned content has been released
It is not a faithful reproduction. There are massive amounts of alterations, even before the public access was granted to classic. There are constantly bugs being altered in ways not before, and more important we have huge issues like spell cleave grinding which was never part of wow classic in the mainstream way it is now.
If what you say is true and they want to recreate the original experience, CLASS CHANGES WAS PART OF THAT.
This nostrol scum nonsense is getting old. ONLY NOSTROL HAD NO CLASS CHANGE
I dont think so. This is why i said it needs research.
