  • supremenutsack psychadelic toad enjoyer (@supremenutsack) reported

    @WarcraftDevs can you folks just fix /who, it would really be nice

  • hellszar Hellszar (@hellszar) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs @WatcherDev please please don't fix it! Make it a feature! The majority of the community want this!

  • Sadwarfg Sad Dwarf (@Sadwarfg) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs Ah **** it's gonna take another 6 months to fix this bug

  • NicPettersson Niclas Pettersson (@NicPettersson) reported

    @SachsenGoku @Warcraft Just started playing retail again after 2-3 years break, took around 40 hours to start push m+ no problems. All it takes is going through the storyline (boring) and then do world quests in Zereth Mortis. Meanwhile, Classic you can't even get a ****** group to do a normal dungeon.

  • Reo_Haruto1 ReoHaruto (@Reo_Haruto1) reported

    @Warcraft By even tweeting this you're admitting that your current retail game is so unbelievably boring that people would LITERALLY RATHER RUN CIRCLES THAN PLAY YOUR CONTENT. FIX YOUR GAME.

  • BenEv12 VaderWave (@BenEv12) reported

    @OldManPhy @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs It’s likely this creates other issues and bugs.

  • xXRariiXx Rarrii Katya S (@xXRariiXx) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs im guessing they will fix this but as some 1 who moved to horde because my alliance guild of a long time died i hope this helps in finding a way to make cross faction guilds a reality faster...

  • DirectorLochton Director Jeremy S. Lochton (@DirectorLochton) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs Noooo! Don't let them fix it! @WarcraftDevs come on, it works, just needs more tweaking, keep cross-faction guilds!

  • MysticalTheMonk Justin (@MysticalTheMonk) reported

    @Senseithemonk @WarcraftDevs @holinka It’s so confusing. They have enough awareness to pre-nerf PvE trinkets, which is great! But they don’t nerf the ONE PvP trinket that is broken 🤔

  • Marlamin Martin Benjamins (@Marlamin) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs Very cool! Probably getting fixed as it is going to break/cause issues w/ things that assume a guild is only one faction (e.g. the hall of fame). Would be much more fun if they fixed all of those and just officially supported it instead, but I don't see that happening for 9.2.5.

  • icemanjmw john warner (@icemanjmw) reported

    @BlueDrewLIVE @WarcraftDevs Counterpoint, you’re asking them to balance it for what certain people want. Now this current season I get that 99% of people agree on one problem. But most of the time the splits are like 50/30/20 so do they go with the loudest group?

  • theicyman 🇺🇦ICYMAN🇺🇦 (@theicyman) reported

    @woottodoo @Warcraft I think there should be place for selling and place for group finding. Premade group ahouldnt be about selling a service.

  • KoganU Kogan Urufu (@KoganU) reported

    @GossipCurlG @Warcraft Used to be a glitch back in Mists when pandaren first came out that they couldn't die from fall damage at all. Previously, at a certain point, fall damage just dealt 100% of your health regardless of how much you had. -c-

  • Nerftaiga Stewart Wagner (@Nerftaiga) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Gong broken on Shadowstrike please help

  • FelipeAlegre5 Felipe Alegre (@FelipeAlegre5) reported

    @Warcraft This is a huge game design problem and you make a meme of it… not a good idea

  • keyboardturn Simaia - might post spoilers-ish 💙 (@keyboardturn) reported

    @Marlamin @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs Tbh I feel like everything that gets fixed (or at least acknowledged) now paves the road for eventual cross faction play issues to be solved later 👀

  • patf0rd Lazey (@patf0rd) reported

    9.2.5 patch notes: "Fixed an issue where Jingles battle pet would display as "Unknown" when summoned and its wreath and candy cane accessories were the incorrect size in the Pet Journal." #PetBattle #Warcraft

  • HolyLad23 PineConer69 🗿 (@HolyLad23) reported

    @Fabxoxox @BC7_Games @Warcraft Because apparentally if people track down the wow twitter account and reply to every single tweet complaining about ingame issues they will fix it.

  • take5fatass ivy "deerham take5" inwoner (@take5fatass) reported

    @SenorWoberto a lieutenant colonel of the United States Armed Forces censoring himself in real time in an interview when asked about Iran-Contra, in order to not piss off a PR rep of ****** Activision. and OP thinks the problem is that the games arent Wholesome, like mario or world of warcraft

  • badapples08 Badapples (@badapples08) reported

    @Revololwarrior @WarcraftDevs Buff BM please they still suck at aoe damage big time !!!! You see the problem with Bm is they used to always get better with more stat's but now with diminishing returns on stat's that's not happening now so a flat % buff is not the answer .... thast two buffs did nothing 7% OA

  • setupheaven SetupHeaven (@setupheaven) reported

    @BrianBirming @TheDryIce @WarcraftDevs Race change was part of the original Wrath xpac (which I played) and RP players had no problem with it. I don’t understand the rationale behind not adding it again tbh

  • apixelops Apixelops (@apixelops) reported

    @Wowhead @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs Don't fix it Leave it in

  • ChronSyn  Scott Pritchard  (@ChronSyn) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs This seems like it's one of those edge-cases that wasn't thought about, but I'm confident that it'll be fixed (either to expand the 'bug' to work with existing guilds, or to fix it to prevent it working with newly forming guilds).

  • Icewallowcumin Tellmewhy (@Icewallowcumin) reported

    @DEXB0T @Warcraft Trying to fix huge faction imbalances (or a dwindling playerbase) isn't what I'd call a milestone

  • patf0rd Lazey (@patf0rd) reported

    "Fixed an issue that sometimes caused Blizzard Shop transmog cosmetics to temporarily disappear from your collection." Oh snap... I hope this includes the Blizzcon Wendigo transmog @WarcraftDevs #Warcraft

  • Unholymolycow Nicolaj (@Unholymolycow) reported

    @Warcraft Fix pvp already

  • Juther83 Juther (@Juther83) reported

    @Warcraft Fix pvp and remove trash trinkets from it.

  • Gorthezar Tanner (@Gorthezar) reported

    @MrGMYT @WarcraftDevs For the love of God don't fix this.

  • MarineDoga456 NoOne (@MarineDoga456) reported

    @Wowhead @MrGMYT It should just be a thing like hey @WarcraftDevs don't fix this. Let it happen.
