So I made a post yesterday about a particular nerf coming up in WoD, Blizzard listened to what I said, and reverted the change. Consider my post, there was no whining or complaining, I was reasonable and even thanked them at the end. Manners go a long way. Original post below.

I always thought it was a pretty decent racial trait. For those of you who are not familiar with what it is, it's the pandaren racial, granting pandas Double the well fed stats. In the WoD patch notes, I noticed they nerfed it to granting only a 75% increase in the stat.
I always thought that it was on par with the other racials, except for the fact that it cost something. Other racials are passive and always active. Now that it's been slightly nerfed, probably for balance reasons, I think that they should change it yet again to make it worth while. Allow the well fed stat for pandas to persist through death. You nerf the benefit but keep the same cost, that doesn't seem right.

TLDR: Blizzard Nerfed the benefit of Epicurean, they should at least nerf the cost, or make well fed persist through death for pandas. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. The change to Epicurean is being reverted on Beta.

Yeah, we actually decided not to make some changes we were considering. Epicurean is returning to 100%. - @Celestalon

Two threads and they revert a necessary change, but 100 people whining about more serious stuff that's broken and devs don't listen.

Blizzard's definitely working as intended.

Those are two separate things being mentioned. We read and collect feedback on a wide range of topics and take them into consideration. Also, not doing what 'you' want doesn't mean that we aren't listening. Not all things have been decided so there may not be new information to share for a given topic.

Will undead who cannibalize Pandaren also get a 100% food buff?

It doesn't quite work that way. If you are what you eat, wouldn't you transform into a Pandaren?
