Provided no meteors or massive natural disasters occur, it will happen before the end of the World...of Warcraft.

You know what I mean? *nudge nudge, wink wink*

Q u o t e:
It never ceases to amaze me how there are multiple threads about realms dying and blues are content only to post in horrible topics like these.


There are only so many ways we can say that we are closely monitoring the realms. We've also had many cases in which the overall health of a realm was better than the perception. That doesn't mean we aren't keeping an eye on things as evidenced by when we open up realms for transfers or add realms (when we feel it's necessary.)

If you look around you, we are right now, standing in what I would term a fun thread. It's design was to bring humor to an often asked question. I, in assessing the purpose of the thread, have joined in the fun. I like fun. I also like taking part in the community in humorous ways when it's possible. After all, these forums are for a game that we hopefully are all enjoying.

Now that we've gotten serious and harshed on the fun of this thread, I'd advise you that if you have feedback on Community Team performance in the future to email to [email protected] instead. Any further discussion in this thread, will sadly result in some forum suspensions that should be completely unnecessary if people would only read the forum guidelines and code of conduct.

Thanks.

You didn't read what I wrote there.

I know they are not allowed to say certain things, but at the same time they should be sensitive about how players feel about information said here.

Players are not looking for "i know the answer but I am not telling you"
they are looking for an serious answer or "We have many exciting things waiting for you guys, be patient and everything will be out in the right time"


Hrm. I think you're reading a bit too far into this. We've answered many times before that we're just not ready to release the talents to the public. Are we anxious to? Yes, but we also want to make sure when the information is public, it's in a state that we feel is closer to what we want than not. (Though testing can always cause things to change, and there will be testing.)

As I've said in the past as well, some people are fine with "we have exciting things waiting for you guys, be patient" and others abhor seeing those words. To them it's equally as insulting.

In no part of what I've said, did I say, "I know and I'm not telling you." Like everything, we will share the information when we're ready and that date can change as we go.

Q u o t e:
Will the new talents be released on the live servers before wotlk like they were pre bc?


I'm not able to answer this for you right now. Once we are given the go ahead to announce these sorts of plans, we will. Despite what seems like a lot of silence, we are making progress.

Also keep in mind, when we say we will release the information, that doesn't always mean the Community Team will be posting it ourselves on the forums. Information can come in many forms from it being posted on the front page, to it being released in a test patch or even in the beta. We do what we can to make sure the information is seen and available to everyone as it comes out no matter the form.

*Official information that has been released by us is fairly easy to spot. Anything else should be suspect unless confirmed by us.
