You used a plural there. So, you’re wrong there.
The change I want is for the long-term health and viability of Classic which IMO won’t affect the game as a whole, and prevent theft.
No double talk. If people rely on bank alts for their guilds, then they stop being optional and start being necessary. It’s not predisposing anything, it’s simply asking if this is the situation, or if it is not.
Instead of desperately finding any argument against a change for the sake of #nochanges, simply address whether this is the reality of what guilds do or do not do.
Do guilds rely on bank alts when there are no guild banks? Yes or no. If yes, then the issue of a guild bank is something to be discussed. If no, then it is a non-issue.
Nice pedantry. If you want any changes whatsoever, you don’t want Classic.
I’m glad you have good intentions, and I don’t doubt that those intentions are sincere, but what you are advocating for the long-term health and viability of is something that isn’t Classic.
If you want to change Classic into something it isn’t, I think you’ve rather missed the point of Classic in the first place.
It won’t. Guild banks still get raided in retail. The issue of theft is not the lack of a guild bank, but rather poor judgment and human nature, neither of which can be fixed by adding game features.
Nope. Guild banks just don’t improve upon either of those issues.
I suppose you could say that if you’re sharing the account for the bank alt your guild uses, a proper guild bank feature would be a security improvement over that, but that’s already against the rules anyway, so I don’t really care.
That would probably depend on the guild. I think you could answer yes, as some guilds will rely on bank alts.
I don’t think you understood the point I was making, though. Even if relying on bank alts is necessary, that doesn’t mean guild banks are necessary. Bank alts already offer the same solution, and don’t require making changes to Classic.
Blizzard asked for opinions, so you’re wrong. And again, ignored the rest of your post.
“We wanna hear back from the community: everything from new character looks to old character looks – what would people prefer? Please tell us.”
“Should class balance be left as it was, or should it be tweaked within a certain margin, or should it be constantly tuned and worked on? I’m not so certain that any specific one is the default, correct choice.”
“These decisions will really be made by the kind of discussions we see here, so… if folks want a true 1:1 Vanilla experience, then we want to see the discussion of that. If people think there should be changes here or there, then we’ll want to see that too.
The community will truly be what shapes the direction of Classic as we move forward, together.”
I think that’s a little strong worded there. It’s not like we’re getting the old game copy-pasted. There’s a lot of little changes in client from water textures, accessibility options like colorblind modes, mail being streamlined a bit to replicate popular addons, a modified modern api for addons, compromised loot sharing, RCR, and potentially sharding.
I’m NoChanges but I don’t have an issue with adding colorblind mode.
I hate when anti NoChanges people start ranting about authentic server crashes and CRT monitors for an authentic experience.
While I agree that “Yes Changes” and “No Changes” is a binary statement I still disagree that #NoChanges is black and white. The whole point of #NoChanges is to provide feedback to Blizzard that we want that authentic experience. They’ve said multiple times that they want to keep all the problems of Vanilla WoW, “warts and all”, in the game as it’s how it was back then.
It’s not even up for debate. Blizzard asked the community what direction the game should go in. I quoted the post. If people choose to ignore that, that’s on them, not me.
Then you should hgave no.problem either actually providing a deginitive “YES” or “NO” and answering the question, or providing the quote in which you did confirm or deny that you advocate multiple non vanilla changes.
