[Durandal]

It is retarded to listen to the outcries of noobies who want to quest in peace; this is what the game is about! The constant rage and drama is part of the game's beauty! For many of us, it's why we are here.

You're only here to cause constant rage and drama?

you aren't?


quiet frankly forums that require you to register are only good for shitposting

that being said these recent steps to pad the walls of the insane asylum has pissed off people, soon you won't be able to PvP without the written consent of the other person


slippery slopes are real things, take heed nost devs

Even Blizzard considered this an exploit. A minority of players experienced the "fun" of this exploit before it became a problem but it hampers the enjoyment of others. If you want to PvP, do it outside of towns instead of being a cancerous shitbag.

it's not really an exploit or a glitch

an exploit is a flaw in the programming that allows you to do something that normally you can't, the difference between a glitch and an exploit is an exploit is usually ALWAYS meant to benefit the player in some way in a rather absurdly beneficial way

a glitch is a small hiccup in the coding that causes problems, sometimes harmful sometimes helpful, glitches tend to be usually benign in origin and don't really hamper anything

the roof in gadgetzan isn't a exploit or glitch, while it's an unintended area to get to it's reachable simply because of objects placed around the BSP

frankly this crock of shit is possibly going to lead to a slipper slope,

When the official game's devs come out and call it an exploit like that, then you should probably trust their judgement in it being an exploit.

In my mind, if you have to use exploits in order to get kills, that makes you the casual because you just can't handle a PvPer who's able to fight back. So if you're the type who camps rooftops, I guess you fit that definition, yes?

Your opinions earlier are just as pointless, we may as well scream as much as we want, in the end, all the matters is what the devs decide.

Don't abuse safespotting. Simple as that.
Blizzard never intended for people to be safe from guards while still in the range of those guards, that's why they FIXED IT ON RETAIL FOREVER AGO.

If you can't handle the fact that a vanilla server needs to implement a rule to keep players from griefing in quest hubs, then you're probably a low life ganker who can't survive long in the open world PvP we have available.

I played WoW on release through WoD. I've ALWAYS played on PvP servers.
Safespotting is griefing, not PvP. If you are in a safespot, then you need to stay out of combat. Personally, I don't mind if people want to hang out on roofs. The issue is when they attack players from within the range of guards. That was never intended to be in the game, it breaks immersion for people, and it's an unfair way to PvP. It's also a very lame thing to cry about. Go to Hillsbrad or something you filthy casuals.

Nostalrius staff - You really DO need to be careful about what rules you try and implement. This rule was a good choice. There are going to continue to be sour players complaining about it. Just remember that the majority of these complainers are unskilled gankers. They're toxic enough that most of the playerbase will not miss them.
