You wakeup and the forums have changed...

Community General Discussion

They don't have pages anymore, just endless scrolling. There's a new "trust" system to grind like rep in game, among other changes, you also have to wait many hours of maintenance to post.

What will you do?

Adjust and continue using the forums?

Honestly, most of the new potential features look decent. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is post count getting reset, that's kind of crappy. But otherwise, I don't see it being a big deal.

Bonus points to Blizzard if they get rid of this sewage brown/green theme that's still partially left over from Legion, in favor of a color scheme that's less of an eyesore.

That's probably the biggest black mark I have with the new layout. My computer's a toaster: separating threads into pages is significantly better for my load times (which, I realise, sounds weird to say for a text-based website).

What a nightmare

Go back to bed.

I will run in circles while screaming "THE SKY IS FALLING!!!" then proceed to go into a fetal position and suck my thumb.

First I go take the GRE because that's what I have to do tomorrow.
Then I take a look at the new forums.
Then I groan, loud enough that players in Azeroth hear it and go "what the hellscream was that?"
Then I continue to use the forums without further complaint, because that's what I do.

Probably just wander off. WoW has been boring me and I'm mostly playing other stuff while waiting for fallout 76 post release reviews to start coming in so I can decide if I'm going to buy it. The forums were about the only thing keeping me interested in WoW and they're going to be as boring as BFA soon.

Get restless because, while I don't post often, I read the forums for entertainment.

Yus, but they're only usable on your horde characters.

Oh, this is different.

Go back to sleep.

Keep scrolling until I get my 20K posts read?

Good luck on the GRE. Don't sweat it and you will be awesome!

Find interesting posts and I might reply. Depends on whether I have posts left or have become trustworthy enough to earn more posts.

I channel my inner confused old person and write a letter to my congressman. It's about as effective as anything I could do in this situation.

After I'd probably go back to doing the things that really matter, like exercising...wait no...exorcising the demon in my microwave so I can once more enjoy my kettle corn without cultists trying to break into my house to perform blood sacrifices.

Addendum:

Also I thought the one about Magni cuddling was the last 'You Wakeup and...' thread.
