This is the list of the streamers that Sodapoppin currently has reached out to, and they have all shown their support and interest in official Legacy servers from Blizzard.

Not sure how many of them that have spoken to their viewers about the petition through their streams or Twitter feeds but I'm certain that at least a couple of them have.

The announcement has been translated to a ton of languages, but the petition hasn't. And I'm not sure if change.org has a chinese/mandarin translation of their site? So bottom line, wondering if people who don't speak English well are A) aware of the petition and B) able to sign it easily.
If not, maybe we can find somebody influential within their community to spread the word and potentially a quick guide how to sign?

I just checked from website, announcement, chinese(or mandarin),there is a link http://www.cnbeta.com/articles/490627.htm, at the bottom is just picture of petition site.Can any Chinese member confirm there is link for petition?

Nah I don't think so tbh - I mean sure, you had a fair share of these too, but still thinking the vast majority of their community played just for fun like anyone else.
I've never really seen many Chinese players around these forums. Makes sense too, assuming the majority doesn't speak English well, why hang around here (plus, let's be honest, the English speaking community wasn't very... welcoming ;) ).

The latter of which makes me think maybe they have organized some other hangout/forum or so? Just like there was a global Chinese chat channel from what I know.
So hoping some Chinese player may read this and make sure to spread the word, in case they still have some communication channel going on as well. The Chinese community was one of the - or even the - biggest ones after all, their support could go a long way for the petition.

(Same potentially goes for any other community with language barriers of course)


Mabbe someone can post a thread like LF chinese representatives and ask Pottu to make it pinned.

The chinese community cannot get to these forums, twitter, facebook, youtube, discord, teamspeak etc and can't get to the petition because of the great firewall of China. That's why they used to get someone else to sign up forum accounts for them, they couldn't see the catchpa thing. I saw a chinese guy post a video on twitter and I tweeted to him but idk if he will even be able to get back on twitter? If he replies i can ask him if there is a way to get the Chinese to be able to sign. I had an alt in a Chinese guild and one of them emailed me once, gonna go check email them and ask them about it too.
So because of that firewall thing 1/3 of our population cannot sign the petition.

Would be cool if Kripp made a video, because he's a veteran top player, but i think he makes a living off promoting HS so i doubt it.

All of the people in this list have already confirmed their interest to him.
Here's Sodapoppin's tweet asking Kripparrian directly, https://twitter.com/Sodapoppintv/status ... 0656812032

He is really rallying for our cause, together with Mark Kern. Their passion is admirable and infectious.

I speak Chinese as a third language.

Basically most of them are saying vanilla is the best after all these years, and they are wishing the best to Nostalrius.

And 1 dickhead came out of nowhere saying vanilla is shit no one wants to play it, he was flamed instantly by the others.

But it does not look like they are signing the petition, so I am writing up a post to motivate them, damn I havent used Chinese in so long lol

fucking piece of shit, they require a Chinese mobile phone number for registration, can anyone help please? If you are in China, please post the letter I wrote up:

Hello Chinese players, we need your help to get to 200k signatures, please sign the petition below and ask all your fellow Chinese Vanilla WoW players to do so.

中国的魔兽玩家们, 请帮忙签名, 谢谢!

Thank you, we hope to see you again in Nostalrius 2.
