  @Warcraft server issues again today, tell me again wtf I pay for this game???

  Grok (@grok) reported 5 minutes ago

  The Nightslayer PvP server in World of Warcraft Classic faces significant botting and gold issues. Bots, automated programs farming resources, flood the economy with gold, inflating prices (e.g., flasks cost hundreds of gold). This disrupts fair play, especially in PvP, frustrating players. Blizzard has banned over 120,000 accounts for botting in the past, but players report bots return quickly, and no specific 2025 actions address Nightslayer. Suggestions include better detection or limiting VPNs, but effectiveness is debated. The lack of recent Blizzard statements fuels player dissatisfaction.

  @Warcraft I unsubbed today because your customer service is awful. All I wanted to do was change my phone number. I could have changed my number twice with the IRS in the amount of time it took to be told no by your customer service. If you want the three month sub back fix it

  @WarcraftDevs DKs Defile and Abom Limb could use some QOL, they cause serious mechanic visibility issues. Defile completely blocks other ground effects, and Abom Limb's black shadow needs to be much less opaque.

  @Awk20000 @Warcraft @Twitch this is a major **** move unbanning someone only to tell them they unbanned him in error is cruel. unless he reoffended just let him stay unbanned

  @Cakeislie1 @Warcraft We have no reliable way of refreshing the dot duration outside of shadow crash, which by itself is an unreliable ability as it has a slow travel time, and you can miss the targets with it. Mind Spike instant procs are gone. Void Origins is gone. Damnation is gone.

  @woahitsjuanito The problem with adapting either franchise is that they are such a black hole of worldbuilding that It would be really easy for a fan to accidentally make it incoherent to anyone not into it. See the Warcraft adapting the prologue instead of anything interesting.

  @lexstrasza @Warcraft @WarcraftDevs Good luck! Hopefully they listen if it's an issue for people. Seems like an arbitrary limitation.

  Hi everyone, I've been having trouble connecting to servers recently. I'm not sure if it's a problem with my PC or the servers themselves, but I'm getting really tired of not being able to play World of Warcraft. Do any of you know how to help me troubleshoot this problem?

  SadJimmy (@MiserableDoness) reported 21 minutes ago

  Hey @Warcraftdevs, would you please fix the Underlight Angler already? Since it became a profession tool, most if its traits don't work at all, such as the ones that let you fish up entire pools from Legion schools of fish, and the rest only work after you've pressed the fishing

  Blizzard employees calling the hyper realistic FPS game that goes viral on Twitter unethical and problematic after they had no issue with a horribly written and executed genocide story arc that made no sense at all and was never really resolved. Peak cringe. #Warcraft

  @genesis02095 @DSR_Joker World of Warcraft persists to this day, and has less issues. Granted, this could be due to the simpler tech it was based on, but it might also be because it was built from the ground-up to be the game it is, whereas D2 is built on a modified Halo engine, over a decade old.

  @Warcraft Haven't had much time to play lately. @BlizzardCS actually told a woman to stop contacting them and refused to help her with an issue so been fighting that fight. I have around 100 people who unsubbed due to this though so I'd expect progress soon. #Dragonflight @Blizzard_Ent

  @Warcraft Server transfers and faction transfers should be free. It hasn't been a manual process in more than decade and the overhead cost isn't commensurate with the service fee. $15/mo in 2023 is already bananas. Just do away with exorbitant character service fees.

  @Warcraft And no it doesnt have to do with the actual addons, i update it everytime and is always an other one (Lua error free btw).

  @El_Escapista_ @StarScream134 @PeterOvo5 I mean, Blizzard have been circling the drain for a decade almost. On release for overwatch was the only good thing. Diablo immortal, WoW falling apart, and that whole Warcraft Reforge fiasco. I'm not exactly brimming with hope that Microsoft will fix **** and instead do jack.

  @ZehliaGaming @Warcraft i actually went through the trouble of collecting all 4 set recolors this tier, working from mythic difficulty down to LFR. I can tell you with 100% confidence that if you own a 421 helm, you cant roll on the 411, 398 or 389 versions. it's not even a debate, just a fact

  I stopped playing World of Warcraft about 5 years ago. Back then it seemed like you had to log in with an accountname and a password. Now it seems like you need an email address and password to login, which is kind of a pain.

  @that_kind_oforc @Warcraft This and a bunch of the Maw events being flatout broken is just really bad, especially since some of them are necessary for the Shadowlands meta achievement I believe

  @kittredge667871 @Warcraft I'm not entirely sure what 'Principle' you're referring to. This feature has been an addon that millions of players have downloaded and used WAY before this even hit the drawing board. something to aid players can ONLY ever be seen as a positive so whats the ISSUE?

  Andrew Talbot (@atalbot88) reported 51 minutes ago

  @Qwik @Warcraft They really need to fix hunters mark. In its current form it’s useless in M+ and on specific raid bosses. Just convert it into a flat 1 hr crit buff and you solve most of the issues.

  Amanda (@the_cool_amanda) reported 54 minutes ago

  @TheDarkShaman @Warcraft Oh I don’t think that was in issue on Twitch. Bc we would all have music in the background. Maybe if you have some sort of streaming plugin that shows the name and artist of song. I do have to hop off though. Sorry to drop a viewer for you!

  PVP flag sound in Warcraft. Sudden Rejection. Sudden verbal instructions. Suddenly spoken to. Oh damn, I got issues. Brain why you do this. Brain shuts down.

  @iravixian @crypto_vikingr @Warcraft Exactly the problem, DH wanted Perma Meta since the day the class was available. Could be bundled up with dracthyr style flight to hit two check boxes
