“Small” being defined as “people other than you”.
You want pathfinder, go do it. Don’t dump it on others to get back a skill we had since BC just because Blizz is still butthurt over losing Flight Wars.

And it’s what is required now (more like the past 10 years) for regular flight.
Simple is simple
And most of those expacs have been failures.

Small being defined as “not enough of a disturbance in player numbers to make them change it back pre PF.”
No one pvp’s so it doesn’t matter

They don’t change everything because of outcry. But there hasn’t been anyone I’ve seen beside you for PF. I still want to see these numbers on the small amount of people against PF.

Of course they don’t. 
However, I could have sworn the whole “won the war on flight” angle (which never actually was, outside of the community’s theories) was due to…‘outcry’ 
They did bring back flight after people quit in mass. Ion’s idea was to create Pathfinder. Which hasn’t been liked since. Some came back but they never fully recovered their numbers.

And I still want to see these numbers of this claim that everyone who plays wants it removed.
Goes both ways.
What we do know is that only a very small number of players egage the forums.
People quit in mass back then due to the lack of things to do in Drae, not mainly due to flight.
There are no numbers either way. But I’m not saying a majority want it removed, nor a majority want it to stay.
The lack of content came later and was endgame stuff when they finally admitted the last raid was being dropped.

And yet, it still was NOT over flight. There is no way after incurring that first massive loss that they would have allowed flight to continue in PF if that was the case.
Absolutely none.
No the exodus came after they admitted they never intended on adding flight. That is when they turned around on that. Those are two separate things that you are trying to squeeze together.

They constantly kept saying “we’ll see” and all that is moot to the point that they would have yanked PF with the quickness if it had that much of an effect.
They admitted they never intended on adding it in an article interview. That’s when people left. I played during WoD. I created this very character during WoD. You can’t try this revisionist history on me.

So did I and long before. Which article?
And again…they haven’t stopped PF, so obviously that many players aren’t affected by it.

Then you were right…so then, why is PF still here then if the outrage is as great?
That would also indicate it was brought back due to…outrage, correct?
Because Blizz is sometimes stubborn on things. But if I had to guess, I’d say this would be the last time for PF. And the reason for that is in the game files they are developing a toggle for dynamic or static flying. You’ll be able to do both by toggle.
So I think we’ll have DR in future expacs. It seems like it’ll be renamed at least in this new expac
Summary
it seems to be named stormriding.
And then the toggle will just be the thing.
