Good luck on your VoA rolls my fellow Hunters and Locks.

This is not a QQ forum. We will continue to delete posts and ban posters with nothing constructive to say. These forums are talking about issues with your class, not for reciting histories of broken promises or how you feel neglected.

I will leave this thread open for now.

Q u o t e:
So we're not allowed to give feedback that's negative about the changes to our class?


No, of course not. If you read any of my threads at all, you'd know that we invite any kind of criticism or concerns about your class abilities, role or mechanics.

What we are not interested in (and honestly I think most of you know the difference) is QQ. The type of fairly worthless posts I am describing typically sound something like this:

-- Well, I guess Blizzard thinks our class is working as intended. Time to reroll.
-- We told you over and over how to fix our class and you didn't listen.
-- Blizzard just loves other classes and wants to phase ours out.
-- Blizzard posts 7.2 times a week in other class threads but only posts 0.4 times a week in ours.
-- Our class is just a joke. Nobody takes us seriously.
-- I guess 4 seasons at the bottom of the barrel isn't enough.
-- It's clear nobody at Blizzard plays our class.
-- GC is a dork. [True, but irrelevant to class balance discussions.]

If it still isn't clear to you, imagine you had a Blizzard designer on the phone for 30 seconds and could say anything you wanted about your class. Imagine you got to ask a question at Blizzcon. Are you really going to waste that opportunity to say "I guess 4 seasons at the bottom of the barrel isn't enough?" That doesn't help the designers, other players or your class.

Q u o t e:
I don't see why some of those replies aren't decent GC. If i had 30s with a bliz dev as a hunter i would be pissed off at em and probably give them hell for those 30s too. Fact is when any company keeps you waiting for so long without fixing something that they promise they will it gets irritating.


Okay. Venting may make you feel better. But it's not going to help your class.

You should use this forum, which the people in charge of making the decisions actually read, to give them information to help make decisions.

Saying "You never listen to us," or "I am irritated," is not going to help anyone make decisions. It is the kind of thing I am sure most players who don't play your class just skip over reading, and as a result we just get more and more posts that don't advance the conversation.

I'll be blunt: this is the kind of thread we normally would have locked. We left it open in hopes that you would understand why we normally lock them.
