Reddit sucks because of the downvotes. This is the perfect places to have discussion because you’re free to say whatever opinion you have. You might get destroyed for it by text but at least it’s not hidden because you got mass downvoted. It creates a hivemind that’s not pleasant at all.
For mythic plus I’m trying to get good at mage. But I feel like I should of gone a tank class but I’m trying something new
yeah with the moderators as the hutt cartel
Get your own keys, if the key breaks because you do something wrong, then no one cares… as much. Or start off by telling people that you’re still learning, it should be ok.
I have engaged with WoW reddit, WoW forums, WoW twitter, and WoW tumblr and I think WoW forums are the best personally. WoW reddit is only good if you have a very specific question, WoW forums are better if you just want to talk. WoW twitter and tumblr have cults of personality. To get engagement you have to replyguy to bigger accounts and god forbid you post things that aren’t related to WoW that the accounts with clout have issues with. there is actually WAY less politics on the forums and I like it that way.
That is what I am going to do most likely so far on. Horde I play a blood DK but on alliance I’m going level this mage I really like alliance more tbh.
Downvotes suppress the worst/stupidest opinions and lead to trolls being automatically censored after enough time, so you don’t get absolute oompa loompas, at the same time the downvotes do suppress intelligent but unpopular opinions.
Both are equally terrible. WoW Discord is where it’s at.
Both factions have their strong points, you can’t really go wrong with either one. I’d suggest playing what ever character or faction that you feel more attached to, or that you belong in. Your game experience will be better, I think.
lol alliance bad
What’s the WoW discord? I might be in it if it’s the one linked by reddit
There’s more than one. That’s the beauty of it. You can join the ones that fit your specific playstyle. RP/PvP/Keys/Raids. I think the most popular one is the reddit one, but that’s prob not “the one” I’d stick in for much longer than getting invited to the other discs.
I would say reddit is better just on freedom of speech alone… but it does other things better as well such as no cheese-y"trust level" system, so everyone is free to post images/links/etc as they please. These forums over here are a fairly kiddie/PG13 format when you compare the two.

I want to join the PvE one and the role play one I genuinely enjoy both of these things
WoW Forums, because it is the official platform. I am not going to 3rd party platforms.
I thought this site was run by a third party but blizzard moderates it
FREEDOM OF SPEECH? lol.
You get downvoted for having a differing opinion in the slightest, then flamed by trolls.
WoW subreddit has been banning people who insult idiots. All freedom of speech has given you is the ability to swear in your posts or bad-mouth Blizzard with foul language… basically it’s the refuge of players who want to insult Ion. It’s kind of cringe.
Reddit used to be “the place” but mods have gone mad with power and so its a joke. I’d rather subject myself to Blizzard’s moderation than Reddit’s at this point.
Apples to oranges my guy. You are free to speak freely/use everyday adult language, is more what I meant.
Can you get “downvoted” or “hidden” for disagreeing with the hivemind/mob on a popular reddit post? Sure
…but honestly the same exact thing happens here (people using flags as a “dislike” button)
The nice thing about reddit is you can use swear words etc and not “water down” your posts to meet PG13 forum rules, it’s definitely refreshing.
It’s the same people LOL. You come here for some social dopamines till you run out of troll content, then you head to reddit for meme content dopamines then you run out and come back here.
