Strong accusation for not addressing my initial reply. yes, I do want RDF and am bummed it wont be there. I’ve gone through my stages of acceptance and will survive not having it.
I am not gaslighting you, I am taking what you said about classic players not wanting to have new players and asking for clarification on how this fits within people wanting other players to socialize. Please do not attribute malice to my posts, it is not conducive to having a conversation.

It’s much simpler than that. Let me give you a hint…it’s a T on a roll.

I don’t even think he’s a troll. I’m pretty certain that he’s just a sad/lonely control freak.

It’s like you walk in to my favorite ice cream shop, the logo outside says “Vanilla Ice Cream Zone”.
Then you walk in while all of us vanilla enjoyers are enjoying Vanilla and start screaming at the manager that they should serve chocolate, because if everyone there doesn’t like chocolate they don’t have to order it, and chocolate is better for shareholders since it brings in more ice cream eaters and money etc etc etc.
How about you just go to a place that serves chocolate and let the vanilla ice cream lovers enjoy their time instead of being disruptive and entitled? It’s a win win.
Instead, you’re walking up to one of the patrons, and saying “you’re anti-ice cream because you don’t want this place to serve chocolate!”.
I’m not anti ice cream…I’m just in a place that doesn’t serve the ice cream you specifically want and I am fine with that, and you aren’t.
That’s why what you’re doing is gas lighting and entitled. You don’t realize you’re the screaming character in this story demanding a flavor that isn’t there for them simply on the basis of…what?

That’s an incorrect analogy. IF I didn’t want chocolate I wouldn’t go to a place advertising as vanilla only. your current analogy is more apt towards other posters in this thread but not our recent interaction. As I stated, I got over RDF not being here, I will still support it being added potentially, but I am hardly a screaming mess about it being removed.
You made a statement pondering if classic players want new players, I asked for clarification. That’s all. You support socialization of players and made a statement directly counter to that with a strong undertone of gatekeeping.
you’re being VERY disingenuous when addressing that clarification and to myself. please refrain from throwing incorrect judgements and insults.

Everyone is focusing on this quote so I’ll elaborate.
All this statement means is that, as demonstrated in my ice cream analogy, vanilla ice cream enjoyers aren’t trying to ruin your love of ice cream or think you shouldn’t be able to have chocolate ice cream, but it’s better for everyone enjoying their vanilla ice cream at the vanilla ice cream shop if you just quietly go to a place that serves chocolate. Everyone’s experience is better. Win win.
Your ice cream rant had incredibly racist undertones. I mean… wow.

I can’t possibly imagine how unless you read it with incredible amounts of preconceived bias or very poor intentions, which at this rate I wouldn’t put past you.

I try to give people the benefit of the doubt. So when someone is being completely illogical and has zero rational thought, I just assume it’s a troll. The alternative is…even less pleasant.
That’s an incredible reach to make.
I don’t think it was a reach at all. Dude went out and said that all of “us vanilla lovers” are here. If you don’t like that you should leave and go somewhere where you can be with your own kind.
Undertones dude. Undertones.
It’s an ice cream preference.
Not an ethnicity.
never said it was.
Undertones…
There are no undertones that aren’t strictly coming from your own warped imagination.

Thank you for the clarification, I still don’t feel your analogy is apt in this scenario.
It would be a better analogy to say that the place now serving only vanilla used to have more varied flavors but due to demand for just vanilla they made the choice to stop serving other flavors. Which would cause an upset among prior consumers.
I think I understand what you meant in your statement about classic players not wanting new players, and I still view it as gatekeeping. why shouldn’t someone who only ate chocolate before not be able to branch out and be accepted for trying another flavor? Those newcomers could be assets and legitimately want to partake in something new to them, why turn them away? Wanting RDF does not automatically make someone a screaming child, plenty of pro-RDF players are being rational and just voicing their discontentment at not having access to it in the expac it was launched in. A lot of those players like myself will also just move on and either still play wrath or do something else. Granted there are a lot of people acting foolish on both sides just throwing attitude and coping poorly or resorting to gloating that others are reasonably upset and making the situation worse and more agitated.

The fact that you have no idea that the stuff you’re saying is weird and cringy is a problem I’m sure you face head on every day.

This isn’t the hill you wanna plant your flag on.
Wouldn’t it be more apt to say that the chocolate shop opened a vanilla franchise (under the same logo) nearby, and the chocolate goers walk in to it thinking “oh the other place servers chocolate, it should be here too!”.
It’s a place born of a completely different goal and intention and yet the angry customer wants from it what the franchise owner is not intending to sell there, even though that same franchise has a chocolate place already open elsewhere, so you could just go to the chocolate shop
Chocolate shop = retail
Classic = vanilla shop
Both shops = Blizzard
