You're welcome. I'd also suggest that you join the #Australia global channel.

It'd be kind of sad if this is what starts WoW's eventual demise. It just seems so... stupid. Then again, only Blizzard can kill WoW. Or in this case, only Activision can kill Blizzard and WoW by proxy.
There's part of me that wants to know how this idea could possibly have been approved. I mean, I could totally see a RealID-ish setup for a new game, but changing an ongoing and insanely successful game like this? What are they thinking?!
On the other hand, I really DON'T want to know what they're thinking. I fear I'd have to bleach my brain if I knew.
As an example, notice that the "classic" boards are unaffected by this - only the newer and presumably hotter games get the RealID treatment.
Let's never forget that a gaming company is a business first and foremost and a publicly traded one is mandated by law to attempt to get the most profit for their shareholders.
Obviously there are differing approaches that companies can take, for example by building goodwill and customer satisfaction in all phases or another simply being to put out great games and ignore the rest.
The fact that I play this game indicates where I choose to spend my money. -
From the WoW boards - "This is the Leroy Jenkins of Blizzard ideas."

It depends on your definition of involvement. I get the feeling this is all coming down for a /very/ select few people at the top. Others have discussed it for sure with them, but I don't think they had any real decision making sway, much like the 2000+ pages of people saying no also holds no sway to that same select few people.
EDIT: Left a tiny word out that made things not make much sense grammatically >.> Fix't -

I would lay money on the answer to that being "none."
I would lay a lot of money on there not being a single woman involved in the decision-making process on this at Activision/Blizzard. -
Welcome aboard, Sara.
Also, we may start to see WoW refugees swinging by these parts. -

Wait, there are people who don't see a problem with this? -

Yeah. F that.
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/view...opic_id=128252 Is downright scary to read through. I was kinda hoping that they'd get their heads out of their rears, and I could play SC2 in a few weeks, but even if this is stopped, nope. Bye bye Actiblizzard.
Also, quick question to all of you who don't see a problem with this - how many of you are women? -
I thought it was DC?

Gather seven pairs of the good ATs and two pairs of the bad ATs.

I'll bring a brute and 20 eoes.

I'd imagine that should the staff here contemplate such a move, they'd discuss it with the community, so we wouldn't be blindsided.
I'm not worried. -

Help please! Will it be necessary to have a full real life name displayed as a handle to post on these forums in the future?
Thanks in advance for any responses.
Having said that, NCSoft isn't Blizzard. I seriously doubt it'd ever be a consideration. -
I pity the next one.

I propose that our rep comments here no longer be anonymous, to go with the flow.

Auction pro-tip. If you win someone in an auction, do whatever you can to not let them win you later on in the auction.

I was going to make a new thread for this, but found this one and thought it may be more productive to revisit this one.
As we know, we now have a way to remove eliminate inactive globals, however, that doesn't solve the issue that, imo, we need more global channels.
The free server xfers we had were great and as a result, a lot of people branched off from their "home" server. I also could see there being new Global Channels being created to cater to the Praetorian populace or matters related to the incarnate or side-switching feature. Also, as more new and neat features are added, it'd be nice to be able to belong to channels that focus on them or area of interest.
I'd also like for there to be some improvements in terms of global channel moderation, such as bans actually having teeth and preventing someone who is banned from rejoining the GC. If this is too difficult, I'd settle for just having more GC and we make do as we have been.
I know what you're saying; 10 was find in the olden days, it should be fine now.
However, look at my breakdown:
1 - JfA2010, one of the main channels for my home server.
2 - Justice United, one of the main channels for my home server.
3,4,5 - Friend channels on my home server.
6 - Freedom Elite, one of the main channels for an adopted server.
7 - Friend channel on an adopted server.
8 - N P C, for the Mentor Project
9 - PvP channel
10 - Australia, due to play times.
What I'd also like to have - 3 or 4 friend channels I've had to leave because I hit my cap, RF2009, Market, etc. And mind you, right now I only have channels from 2 servers, yet I moved toons to a total of 4. -
I didn't say it was justified complaining, did I?
And notice how I didn't merely say idiot scrappers.
Lurk more. -

Having lead a few Yellow aggro teams I also wanted to know if it was necessary to make sure that the tanks on the team not only had taunt, but some sort of range modifier as well to get them beyond the default 70' range of taunt.
For a yellow team, yes to both. The higher your range for taunt, the less likely idiot scrappers and buffers will wander by you, get killed by the splash damage, then complain that there's a loose mito.
