The Ret buff thread was blowing up so they locked it?

Anything that points out Blizzard making stupid decisions usually causes the thread to get locked. It’s honestly been going on for as long as they’ve been going downhill as a company.

Have you ever checked the forum guidelines???

Using the words “Blizzard,” “Blue,” or any community team members’ names in a thread topic is frowned upon.

Using the words “Blizzard,” “Blue,” or any community team members’ names in a thread topic is frowned upon.

Everyone would like Blizzard to read and acknowledge his or her post, and we understand that; however, use of such words in the subject line does not help that come to pass. Please make your thread title relevant to the post subject. Threads violating this guideline are subject to deletion.

Solely calling them upon is already subjected to have your post deleted. I’m not making this up and neither are them making this up. It’s been there for ages.

So, a developer came in first. After that, it was a Community Manager.

What is your question here? I read the thread, the dev replied and the CM closed it due to the high number of replies deleted for violating the ToS. I myself reported at least 5 that disappeared there.

@Jimmày-darkspear

We would be incredibly “grateful” for their communication if it didn’t happen once in a blue moon AND be bad news, citing that they don’t want to buff a spec because the other two are viable as is.

What kind of communication were you waiting for? It happened 15 years ago. Ret pally is what it was, if you don’t know by now you’re a fool or ignorant. Pick up what suits you better.

@Jimmày-darkspear

We “threw mud” AFTER they failed to even acknowledge our questions.

Hence why the thread was locked. You’re mad because of your ignorance and lack of knowledge of your own class / spec. Either reroll another class or change specs. Or just keep playing ret if that is what is fun for you.

@Jimmày-darkspear

Because Prot and Holy are not the topic of discussion?

Of course it has to be part of the discussion, you’re asking your SPEC to be BUFFED but your CLASS has already high representation in 2/3 of the roles in the raid and at least 3 of them even in cutting edge raids. All other raids you can have your ret and you’ll be clearing thins just fine and even all the hard modes.

If your guild is telling you that you’re being replaced because Ret DPS sucks, just find another guild with a non-mindless GM, or what makes you play a DPS spec is being top #1, start making multiple characters so you can play the FoTM spec that is on top DPS.

@Jimmày-darkspear

You do know that ICC is assumed to be Phase 4, right? And we’re in Phase 1?

Yes, and you know that Classic was conceived to be played with the LATEST PATCH of the given expansion, so it was 1.12 for vanilla, 2.4.3 for TBC and now 3.3.5 for WoTLK. Guess what, your class is balanced for the latest tier (ICC) and not around Naxx. Do you think devs back then would review and balance the class across all tiers? Of course not.

If you’re just complaining NOW that the balance is bad and it should’ve been balanced again every patch, I’m sorry, Classic is definitely not for you.

You should inform yourself before posting, it would prevent a lot of problems for you.
