@Players who are mad about something in WoW

Stop trying to hijack threads. If the topic is about how much fun I had in WSG last night, it's not an open forum for you to discuss what you see as a cataclysmic (teehee) error on Blizzard's part in balancing battlegrounds.

If the topic is about DPS who pull for the tank, it's not inviting you to rant about why WoW was so much better in <insert exspansion> because tanking was hard and you had to use CC, blah blah blah.

If the topic is a newer player asking how they can gear up, it is NOT a thread for you to go complaining about how GearScore is single-handedly ruining WoW.

Please, simply, post on topic from time to time. Would you?

I like the cut of your jib.

Also pie > cake unless it's German Chocolate

Chocolate > Vanilla

And I prefer crepes over waffles or pancakes.

Awwww, poor OP. Even the CM helped derail their thread ...

From the very first reply.


Sometimes you have to embrace humor. The OPs point is valid, incredibly so, thus why I agreed. But rather than have a thread full of insults and arguments over what they said, we have a bit of fun going on.

You'll notice we often will delete posts within threads that attempt to derail though we can't be everywhere at once as much as we'd like to be. We also consider it trolling or spamming. There are limits though to what this entails or means or its impact. What's most important is that we remember these forums are about a game that we all enjoy and play. Legitimate concerns are legitimate concerns but should be voiced in respectful ways versus attempting to derail other threads or bring a serious/angry tone to threads in which people are trying to have some fun. There is a time and place for everything.

I tend to have a method to my madness and if you don't see it, that's Ok. If the mood strikes you though and you come across those that are derailing threads, feel free to report their post. If for some reason, you feel you have constructive feedback on Community Team performance you can always email to [email protected] . We are here to observe, report, respond, be a part of, and enjoy the community as much as we are here to "police" it. We have many hats and sometimes, it's awfully nice getting to share a joke or two.
