I’m still confused about this. I can’t target people with /spit but I can still slap them in the face, call them sexy devils, call them the sons of motherless ogres, drop my trousers and moon them, smack them upside the head, punch them, sniff them, fart on them, and laugh at their misfortunes?
I know this pertains to last year’s events but I think I quit around the time that this happened, so I don’t actually understand what the devs were trying to achieve with these changes to the game. All I saw was negative feedback on it on YouTube.
ideally, that was the only good thing about the spit emote spam. but other than that it was mostly used by a clickbaiter to swarm his fans on stuff he didnt like. which wasnt okay
Also just extremely toxic behavior, but im not sure how removing the one emote would actually fix things. Since couldnt they just use another emote?
I will never understand those cult followings people devote themselves to streamers like that. I understand being fans or friends of streamers, but there is never any need for them to go an attack others on command.
It was used by people to shame people who spend money on mounts that should have been in the game because we pay a sub fee, an expansion fee, and when our servers inevitably die because blizzard keeps sacrificing the integiry of our achievements with stupid trash like the WoW token, server transfer/faction transfer fees.
Some people didnt enjoy being spitbathed on a daily basis even thought you could follow up /spitspam with a single /thirsty to invalidate the spit spam and make yourself seem kool. Really it just comes down to a lack of computer keyboard skillz on some players part
It is said that it hurt people feelings in an irreversible way (and still hurts to this day) pretty much like something that happened in 2016. Something you can see by yourself when noticing how easily people get triggered and aggressive when this subject is mentioned.
