Dude Seriously!!! An option to CHOOSE what phase we’re in would be the obvious solution and it’s something other games have done to alleviate the frustrations people have with their similar systems. I have no idea why they haven’t played around with that option???
Posting there, definitely going to share it around with friends.
Still not, sad days.
Still sharded after maintenance today. Quite a bummer
I don’t think we need one thread for this. I think we need to make separate threads. Flood the forums. They’re obviously not paying attention, or if they are they’re failing to communicate. Either way we need communication.
Yeah, I’m starting to think that our rabble has been a little too orderly and polite. We’re not squeaking loud enough to get any grease above all the other squeaky wheels making noise with a buggy launch.
I think it may be time to get a bit more proactive than raising our hands and waiting to be called on.
Asking friends / discord communities to add their voices and input could help. The more twitter posts that can be seen and the more often our forum threads stay bumped up, the better.
Edit: As an example, if people don’t know what to say, I threw this about a half hour ago:
So— There’s recently been a huge burst of threads on the forums about Sharding; I know a lot of us are in all of them but I figured I’d share a collection so we can keep track.
Here’s the one that was made during DF’s pre-patch which has over 300+ posts now, since we renewed it when sharding came back after launch:
Mefistoph’s thread which appeared about 2 weeks ago independently:
Jalanili’s dissertation on why this system is detrimental and asking for it to go away:
I also went and bumped an old thread from when Shadowlands launched.
If there are any other threads that people see, I think it’d be nice to keep them alive too? More attention to the issue = more likelihood of it getting fixed soon, right?
I did threaten that I was going to write a massive wall of ranting if it kept up…and I MEANT IT 
i think… i think it’s gone???
It definitely seems to be! I missed the gunshi(r)ts in chat. Stormwind’s looking livelier than I’ve seen it in weeks, and the usual non-sharded lag is back with a vengeance in the trade district. 
FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDOM Finally.
Oh, they finally disabled it? Yay!
