Once again, we really appreciate the discourse around this, it’s a topic with no easy single answer depending on your personal preferences for how you play World of Warcraft.
We’ve read through your feedback and debated internally. We are going to move forward with this change. Exact date and details will come soon, but you shouldn’t have to wait long!
I’ve mentioned it a few times but one more time, unfortunately Connected Realms is not a technology we can leverage for Season of Discovery, the amount of time that it takes to plan and implement does not fit with remaining time in the Season. We have some ideas to make sure we can avoid this entire topic for future Classic iterations!
