Blizzard made this video:

Calling it now. Or perhaps i'm wrong? If they're going to release a server, then they need a guarantee that people will play including new players from the hype. I don't blame them, although the method seems unethical, if its true that Mark was hired to run the petition and deceive us. I hope he's sincere.

Yeah you're a little late to the party and not well informed on everything that's happening haha. That's not Blizzard, that's Mark Kern (on our side) supporting legacy servers.

That guy hasn't been at Blizzard for a LONG time. He also admitted that most developers of original WoW/BC left after Activision ate the company. The design philosophy was canned, and the game was handed to new people that trainwrecked it away from the game it was originally designed to be. In order for WoW to ever be good again, it needs to roll back all the shit these people have done to it. This is why we need legacy servers. But these new casual shithead developers don't want legacy, they like WoW as it is now, and want to keep it that way. Rolling back the game is them admitting defeat and admitting that the majority of players hate what the game is now, and would rather play what it was before they ruined it. So long as they don't do it, they can live in denial and shove retail down everyone's throats. But hosting both means they'll see first hand most of the subs moving off their newer patches.

WHAT IS THIS

Well I thought he was a shill for a long time now, and this video nearly seals it. Unless you don't actually understand the point of this post like the first derp who replied to me.

Have you seen this guys twitterfeed? It's 50% legacy and 50% weird half naked cartoon characters.
No offense to Mark Kern, but do you honestly believe any company would want that kind of stuff from their hypeman?

He is even answering questions related to how certain private servers can avoid being shut down.
I swear these conspiracy theories become more and more far-fetched.

First of all who in the world is pitching this idea that Mark was hired by Blizzard to create a petition, and then create a video for Blizzard so Blizzard can release vanilla servers? This literally makes no sense.

Okay there's ignorance, and then there's your kind of ignorance. You're not even trying to get the facts straight. You've venturing into conspiracy land. It's full of crazy people who never leave. Eventually they talk to pigeons and think Oreo's have government installed listening devices. In other words please don't go there.
