Because this post is the legal equivalent of sending 10,000 pages of “relevant” documentation in a court suit just to overwhelm people, rendering them unable to keep up with the spam, rather than having a strong, concise actual argument.
But more importantly, my #1 life trigger is people not being taught proper argumentation, and either by malicious intent or ignorance, joining arguments and simply blindly siding with their preconceived world-view and not taking and perusing presented evidence, because why be intelligent, truthful, and correct when you can simply believe what you want and what benefits you the most.
Any addon-based argument is completely meritless to start. Just cause some random dude decided to put some LUA into a random text file doesn’t give grounds for an argument from the get-go.
Even with that argument, this is idiotic because in this post the OP simultaneous says “Even though the addon says Reckoning is dropped on Scatter, it’s not” then say “The addon doesn’t say Reckoning dumped when dying, so it must not”. Hello?
Actually, I figured out the issue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbYnyfaL7J8&t=1m15s. He attacks as he gets scattered, and there is no white text. White text comes up on your next attack. This was a known bug in Vanilla. I will update my post. I actually think it works like this in Classic too, though I am a mage so I don’t attack often.
I concede that last point
But, this might be the only clip that actually shows something. I do not know if Reckoning on Classic doesn’t stack if you’re targetting yourself or another target and that’s an actual bug, but this clip does actually show the Combat Log stacking Reckoning when targeting himself.
And that might be relevant to the 2 bugs they claim will be fixed on server restarts.
So, TL:DR: of this guys like 10 claims, there are actually 7, 6 of which are not defended with his evidence.
