I would toss my level 30 character to start on this proposed server

This is one of the main points imo. They’ve just up and decided to abandon this server type they’ve championed since day one with no explanation.

At least tell us why. It’s beginning to feel quite rude how we were just ignored in the realm selection and still haven’t heard a peep on why.

Just adding my frustration to the list. All of these are good points. I just want to find rpers in the game.

They don’t care.
Judging by how they handled SoD they want the RP community gone.

They nuked Chaos Bolt when it was still breaking 10,000 players for being “too low population”.
They nuked the RP server for the same reason.
They changed CS from an RPPVP server to a normal PVP server.

Wow, that’s a real kick in the face. Imagine wanting to RP in an RPG tagged game…
Guess the new devs aren’t in to RP. :confused:

I’ve seen the new devs on social media sharing their SoD parses and such, so I imagine they’re very different types of gamers from RP’ers.

I’m not sure any of the devs are championing stuff like RP—or if they’re even being allowed to—given Blizzard’s apparent desire to seemingly turn everything into some kind of competitive esport.

It really makes me wonder how long it will be until retail is fully transitioned into some kind of boss rush MOBA where you just pick a class and compete to see who does the most damage.

It’s sad to see how they’re leaving all the RP out of their G. :slightly_frowning_face:

SoD devs are blue parsers at best.

You can support roleplay and be a great parser

then to add insult to injury they changed cs to a regular pvp server

they could have done this in the first place and not nuked the only rppvp server after people refused to leave cs

Horrid to see them just not like their own community that other MMOs would pay to have.

It’s not like we did anything wrong. I think the devs just figure that they don’t like RP so therefore nobody likes RP. Honestly I can’t think of any other reason unless they tell us what it actually is. Like the person above was saying earlier, we haven’t heard anything from them about this and it doesn’t make sense why they’d just nix it with no explanation.

We didn’t do anything wrong.
The Classic team bungled the launch of SOD and then blamed the RP servers for it.

Not the first time competitive gamers got in charge of the game and started warping it to their own desires at the expense of the games intended design.

That happened to Halo Infinite too. They hired a pro team to advise them.

It’s especially a travesty given how few people are in the “Pro” track of wow. Be it retail or classic, the need to chase the meta is frankly pretty gross, with the game being built for the top 1% skill level for some reason instead of actual benefiting the average player. Even within the classic community, with people getting bullied for playing “meme” specs such as boomkin because they’re not “Meta” despite most players honestly being casuals who wish to simply imitate pros, killing fun on the altar of meta.
