Did you just call someone that really? Wow.
I urge people to actually go google the bolded term and see what pops up.
If i was to even link the definition of that term, i would be banned… and rightfully the ban would be warranted.
Of course you will say you never meant anything of it…because it is the whole idea of using that term… to avoid it being offensive… but it is a well known term. I would have a hard time believing that you do not know the meaning of that term. As such,… I would recommend please do not use the term again in any debate you are having with other posters. I don’t feel it is helping anything with your debate and letting people think that the term is ok because a mvp uses it. It would just incite more people to use that term. Almost everyone knows what that term means… (except you perhaps-is that your defense?)
With that said…
I would rather see the removal of the MVP system over the removal of the titanforging system in a heartbeat. No offense.
MVPs claim they do not represent neither the players or blizzard, so what is the point? Why is your opinion valued over others opinion?.. and when can we say that MVPs are using that green text to ultimately get what they want? When MVPs get to use that green text to constantly argue that certain systems in the game are trash (effectively trashtalking the game)or that players are receiving “welfare epics” that they don’t deserve etc… (effectively trash talking players) then there is an issue at hand.
Just my opinion.
P.S. There comes a point where you have to admit that this is a player vs player game. It was originally designed to have pvp aspects involved. Making players do mythic raiding or extra difficult content to have the proper tools or gear to successfully compete in said pvp interactions, is silly. Gating others from gaining proper gear to level the playing field in pvp is self centered. You may think that high level raiding is end game and is all what wow is about. I argue that pvp is end game and the entire premise of the game itself. Just because you enjoy raiding does not mean everyone should now raid. What is the point of getting the best gear in the game? to just be geared enough to go farm more gear? Nonsense. PVP is endgame. World of WARcraft… not World of Gearfarming.
You have admitted you used to sell runs in the past and I believe this is clouding your judgement on what is fair to gamers. People don’t like the thought of having to pay for gear from raiding nor spending months to get the gear. Also imo, soaking the playerbase making them pay for upgrades via carries after they pay for the game and a sub fee really hurts the game. Alternate sources of gearing is preferred by the casual playerbase and it should be available without resistance.
Thank god Blizzard sees this already. Making the game “raid hardcore or die” will just kill the playerbase.
So what someone gets a titanforge or higher il then your raids. You should be happy for them that you now have more power on your faction. Not telling someone “Hey you don’t deserve that gear, see you next tuesday.” How offensive.
