No it was long after. I was not talking about difference of opinion at all. I know very well what I was referring to.
Itās spam. Deserves a flag, imo.
I feel like youāre trying really hard to make something out of nothing though.
Yes weāve been over that.
Iām still not going to let up on the fact that Soule (and some others) clearly are ok with flagging different opinions as seen that they liked a post advocating to flag every post mentioning void elves.
Youāre free to be wrong.
Spamming or Trolling
This category includes:
- Excessively communicating the same phrase, similar phrases, or pure gibberish
- Creating threads for the sole purpose of causing unrest on the forums
- Causing disturbances in forum threads, such as picking fights, making off topic posts that ruin the thread, insulting other posters
- Making non-constructive posts
- Abusing the Reported Post feature by sending false alarms or nonsensical messages
- Numbering a thread, IBTL, TLDR, or any other fad statements
If you really believe that, you are the only one reaching here.
Iām quite fine with different opinions. Donāt try to interject what I was actually posting about without even reading the thread.
Clearly you arenāt otherwise why would you like this post?
Imagine concentrating on someone pointing out spam and others agreeing w them as opposed to flat out insults over pixel elves.
If people see something as spam and flag it thatās between them and the mods, if the post gets restored it sends the message the opinion of it being spam was wrong and people know for next time. Itās not on a random forum poster to zone in on peoples perception of spam the way it is for forum posters to call out bad behavior.
Personal insults in a thread during conversation effects the people in said thread, peoples opinion that something is spam effects them and the mods, one seems pertinent to comment on, the other does not.
My name isnāt Matt. Iām not sure why you are quoting me someone elseās post
You liked that post.
You signaled your agreement to it.
It was a misclick from scrolling. Iām on a cellphone.
Alright then youāre fine
Please point out where spam was mentioned in that post.
Iāll wait.
The point is people thought the post was in reference to it being spam and the follow up convos have been around what constitutes spam or not, all of which is between an individual and the mods if they flag something.
Not really anyones place to interview each person individually on what they think is or is not spam, not really the same thing as commenting on personal insults that effect people present in threads.
I didnāt even see that post and now it wonāt let me unlike itā¦
WoW forums in a nutshell.
Or I could just take the post at face value and not attempt mental gymnastics to justify it.
OMG
Your outfit is amazing! That is all I have to contribute to this thread.
I saw the post and liked it I sympathized w the frustrations expressed in the post Iām actually very reserved w my own flags but it to me was in reference of spam which I agree is a problem w these threads.
wowā¦Youāre very gracious.
There were other things written in that post. Maybe others liked it for that? He didnāt mention spam but I did when I read itā¦to mean spam. Itās also not a far reach to consider it trolling.
And you were told itās not going to happen 15 years ago, but you people still ask for it over and over in complete disregard for the lore and what the devs told you. I have no insight into Blizzard HQ, but I am exceptionally certain that the reason Nightborne and Void Elves were added was as a marketing stunt to string the High Elf zealots along, and then drip-feed them High Elf customization options over time so they stay longer. But thatās just a theory. Blizzard should have never budged one centimeter on elven races either way.
Kind of sounds like people should just be playing a Blood Elf. With the upcoming cross-faction raiding/instances, you might be able to get what you want without giving up playing with friends.
