But should they care about retaining someone only playing Classic? The way I see it is Classic is essentially bonus money and they dont care about keeping up with Classic as the game was already a finished product as of 15 years ago.
Every time they’ve responded on a thread just being cool, they get swarmed by people who think their issue is so overwhelmingly important that how DARE this Community Manager not answer that instead of comment on a game they love.
Yeah but when people start breaking things in the museum and start painting mustaches on the paintings you would hope a security guard would come out at least.
More of the Wild West instead of a museum imo
Trueeeeeeeee. People keep forgetting this isn’t Blizzard anymore. It’s Activision. Like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, they thirst only for dat phat lewts known as your wallet.
Because they want you to go back to/buy retail.
I guess retailers do not do the same thing on the general forum, because:

So what it’s the internet…
Oh, and let me link a few:
Welcome! My best advice is to find people to level with and guild with and do dungeons with and raid with and PvP with. There’s nothing like leveling together.
You’ll get to have combo sword spec, which is an experience.
I played on Frostwolf throughout original WoW, and it was my experience that we really didn’t have a rivalry with any other realms until the Ahn’Qiraj War Effort got underway. Then suddenly we were all over websites that were tracking each realm, and people from other realms were in our realm forum taunting us, and so on. Good times.

Because these forums are nothing but people crying about literally everything that don’t warrant a response from Blizzard.
Okay yeah they don’t have to respond, but that shouldn’t stop them from saying anything at all… To other people, instead of hiding in their cubicles plotting bug fixes like they’re the CIA or something lol
I don’t know, if I stop having fun in Classic, my sub goes to. Really not interested in retail at all anymore. It’s too far gone. I would be concerned if I were them.

Everytime a Blizzard employee has become “personally” involved at the forum level it has been an unmitigated disaster.
Dont you put that evil on me Ricky Bobby. Dont you put that evil on us.
There’s a thing called Warcraft 3 Reforged.
I don’t think they are concerned at all though, they are probably surprised that the playerbase is even this big in the first place. They knew with Classic launch that it would appeal to a niche audience and those left at the end of Classic will be that niche audience.
Ironforge right now for my server looks worse than when they dropped layering, as in there’s more people
I guess though if there’s no queue then the server isn’t actually full
Because it was the greatest growth of profits their company has ever seen, museum piece PSSSH this is a whole new game with old rules.

Well, I mean I didnt want to mention it by name but since the cat’s out of the bag… THIS .
Ever wonder what happened to WoW, why the devs suddenly seemed to anti-player, why they stopped caring if the player population shrank expansion after expansion, or most of the bad attitudes that came to be associated with the game’s dev team around Cata? Why it suddenly seemed like it became Blizzard Vs the players?
There’s your answer. He was WoW’s Vince Russo.
In the fullness of time, it will be understood that they (male/female, whatever) destroyed EVERYTHING.
Blizzard and it’s consumers can never be friends again.
They are obstacles, adverseries, nothing more.
WC3 reforged proves this in spades.
They’re nothing.
They’ll never be anything ever again. They’ll never again make a good game in this lifetime.
Blizzard is done and dead.
We must look to other sources if we want what they once made.
keyword, it was

Google Ghostcrawler wow forum drama if you don’t know what went down.
Google Tseric meltdown. Between these two. Blizz stopped engaging the playerbases.
I mean. The death threats and blizz having to pay additional security kind of made them not want to talk to us.
I wouldn’t wish that job on my worst enemy. This playerbase is fanatical.
This isnt runescape though lol. This is corporation craft

Google Tseric meltdown.
Blizzard doesnt even like his name being mentioned. It goes beyond the Ghost Crawler drama, beyond the Lore drama.
Watch the episode of the Simpson’s “Homer’s Enemy” kids.
