I get the suspicion that you’re just trolling at this point, but I’ll humor you.
DO THINGS IN ANY OTHER ZONE BUT ORGRIMMAR/ZANDALAR FOR A FEW WEEKS.
Is that such a bad thing? The Garrison isn’t the only option either.
Blizzard isn’t going to give you a special shard for a week or two just because you don’t feel like participating in the event. The solution is to vacate those cities and reside elsewhere until it’s over.

I don’t remember a single event mob that was remotely difficult.
You have, pretending otherwise isn’t gonna help you. You are so worried about this event not being a flop, you are getting upset at the people who simply wanted to opt out into the normal gameplay, but don’t mind people logging out or staying at their garrisons, even tell people “if you don’t like it, leave”.
Opting out, logging out, or staying in your garrison, is doing the same thing, they ALL defeat the purpose and danger of your event that is trying to achieve. Your being inconsistent, no matter how you spin it.
Be consistent, that’s all i ask.
If you’ve said “Blizzard need to put a virus in their computer to force their wow to turn on and log in the event”, or something like “tell the government to send everybody a computer just so the first thing they see when they turn on is the pre-patch”, i would still disagree with you, but i would respect you for being consistent.

Again, let me shard out, and I’ll not bother you again.
You seem so opposed to that though. Why do you think everyone’ll opt-out?
Because… People don’t like being victims?!
Zombies have made it to other cities. Nowhere with NPCs is safe.
Oh darn, all those city dailies will be unplayable now.
You do realize it’s probably going to be easier to fight them when this goes live, right?
How hard is it to not AFK or stand around foolishly in a main city during the event? That is how you op out of it.
And where else, pretell, is there to go?
If I’m in the Garrison, I’ve effectively logged off as far as the event is concerned. So why fret about a War Mode shard? Hell, you could even argue, by going to the Garrison, I’M SHARDING OUT.
I despise PvP with the passion of a billion suns, and actively avoid it wherever possible. War Mode worked for that. It should work here, too.
Dazar’alor? Shattrath? Dalaran? Literally anywhere else?
I’m not arguing against sharding as a premise. I’m arguing against the idea that sharding is required for you because you refuse to cooperate with the solutions that are already present in-game.
The game has a solution. Use it. Stop expecting others to accommodate for your inability to follow those solutions.

How did war mode change that, unless for some reason you joined a pvp server as a pvp hater?
Thread’s over, can we 404 this now?
Shattrath was overtaken in the last event. So no dice. There were reports of Scourge in Dalaran as well during my last PTR visit.
So, uh, the list is closing fast. And if going to my Garrison is the same effect, why not just let me shard out?
Guess whose friends like to PvP a lot!
No, the solution is to allow opt in by enabling warmode for the event. People arguing against this are just excited about how they can “punish” players that normally choose to opt out of warmode with no repercussions.
So it is PVP that is bothering people.ok.
Take out the ganking, and I don’t mind the event. That’s all I want, to not be ganked.
By whom? horde or other players in general?
Anyone. It’s why I turned War Mode off.
If the event respected War Mode boundaries, I’d have no issue with it.

I’ve not but ok whatever you say.
What is so difficult to understand about the phrase “I want this event to include the game world and everyone in it. If it doesn’t the event is cheapened and not impactful”. Seriously what don’t you get about that?
Because the world is still being affected. If you can just opt out then the world is not being affected. It’s a simple concept.
It 100% is not. Going to a different game location where you less likely to be infected is one thing but opting out so you can stroll through the cities unaffected is a huge difference. Tell me what you don’t understand about that one.
Again not at all what I’m saying. If you log into the game the whole world is affected. Period. No opting out. If you get creative in the world and hang out in your garrison or a raid or whatever that’s fine. Know why? Because the world is still affected…
You. Can’t. I don’t know why this is so hard to understand, but if you create new characters (at a time when a new character experience is being implemented) you can’t avoid going to your capital cities. Auction houses are situated in capital cities. Portals to navigate the world have made traveling through those cities pretty much mandatory. Vital quest chains to progress characters are situated throughout capital cities.
I don’t know if you were around for it last time, but the event was pretty much game breaking for those reasons. It definitely wasn’t a “vocal minority” that hated it, like some people here are trying to paint it as. There’s a good reason why it was pulled, and yet here we are again. It’s an event designed to grief other players, the only thing that baffles me about it is that they’d even try to do it again or that some people can’t grasp that others maybe don’t want to be griefed.
By griefing. Just say it.
