Chopper Nerfed

OK so I decided to try my chopper after the scratch yesterday, and I was sadden (wait, Id say really, really, sad) to realize, at the cost of a repair bill, that it doesn't take fall damage for you anymore, that now I am taking it. For me, this was one of the only reason I bought that mount.

Now I'm trying to figure out the logic behind that move, and I came out with 2 possible reasons.

1 - A rehaul in the vehicle system in sight of patch 3.1 has forced them to unify all type of vehicles for some reason and for some other reason they were not able to add the "NO_FALL_DAMAGE" flag or reimplement it in a fashionable way.

2 - Since people were having fun with it, and that everything fun gets nerfed, like wall climbing, Blizzard decided to nerf it so they could have more QQ posts to read on the forums and keep their overpaid employees busy.

Now I can understand why you would nerf something like wall climbing because some retards were using it as exploits, but the chopper? Is it really an advantage to anyone to be able to take no fall damage beside maybe being able to jump down the cliff from LM in Arathi?

Other than that I don't know why you nerfed the chopper. I use to ride the mountains in IceCrown and Stormpeak and enjoy it, but seems like that's not like that anymore. I want refund.

Let's put it another way, if you decided to buy the Nobles Deck for 8k and found out 2 months after that they are nerfing the trinket badly, I'm sure you could understand why I take the time to create my first topic ever on this forum.

Thank you
