You're getting mixed feedback from anti-legacy trolls who've always despised this project, players who claim they played Vanilla but they never did, and actual veterans.
Your recent posts got the Legacy Community worried as hell on Youtube, Discord and Reddit.
11/14/2017 03:45 PMPosted by YthisensI personally think its fair to have a discussion about classes/specs in Classic, considering class balancing as a philosophy didn't exist back then as it does now. The idea of a "hybrid tax" was obviously not very good in the grand scheme of overarching class design and it made some specs arguably not viable/unplayable. I'm not suggesting we make huge changes or even small changes at all for that matter, but that it is a worthwhile conversation to have.

*** Please hire Nostalrius. *** I think it's safe to say at this point they know better than you do on what the legacy community wants in WoW Classic. You're not supposed to please everyone. I've said it before, I'll say it again:
WHAT YOU SHOULD BE DEBATING:
- Start at 1.0 and go through patch cycles? Or 1.12 and release content progressively like Nostalrius did?
- Only fix bugs that caused server/game crashes? Or fix all bugs?
ETC.
WHAT YOU SHOULD NOT BE DEBATING:
- Old race models SHOULD BE IN WOW CLASSIC
- Old combat animations (such as old school Fireball animation) SHOULD BE IN WOW CLASSIC
- Old combat sounds SHOULD BE IN WOW CLASSIC
- Old Vanilla login screen SHOULD BE IN WOW CLASSIC
- Old graphics SHOULD BE IN WOW CLASSIC
- QoLs (((Small OR Big))) SHOULD NOT BE IN WOW CLASSIC
- New race models SHOULD NOT BE IN WOW CLASSIC
- Updated graphics SHOULD NOT BE IN WOW CLASSIC
- NameChanges/FactionChanges SHOULD NOT BE IN WOW CLASSIC
- Cash Shop SHOULD NOT BE IN WOW CLASSIC
- "Class Balance" SHOULD NOT BE ATTEMPTED IN WOW CLASSIC
Don't give the Legacy Community ANY reason to go back to private servers.
