   That kinda sucks. No explination either. So I guess I'll just post it again.

OK now that I have your attention, listen up.

Look go easy on the Developers. Yeah bugs come out EVERY patch. Yeah a lot of things need to get looked into like hunters dead zones, warlocks shards, druids higher level damage, bugs, crashing, etc. But look at it from their point of view. This came is MASSIVE. HUGH. GIANT. If your a level 50+ think about all the ground you've covered and still haven't seen and done everything. If your a lower level look at all the things that you can do. Yeah you can compare WOW to other MMORPG's like Star Wars, Dark Age, or EverQuest. But the fact of the matter is this. No MMORPG has been hyped up or more anticipated than World of Warcraft. It's like Halo. No one knew how big it was going to be and now it's almost a house hold name.

Knowing most company's Blizzard is probably trying to make as much money as possible which means hireing only as much help as is nessary. Which means that maybe a team of 30-40 developers are actively busting their collective butts to make this game fun and intresting for millions of people world wide, WHILE fixing everything that's wrong with the game. I'm sure Blizzard is hireing more people due to the fact that they have such a large customer base and they can't handle everything. But then these new people have to be brought up to speed, taught how to do things, and work really hard. And while this may start to help with some of the back work it can hardly be expected that Blizzard would over staff just to get everything fixed RIGHT NOW when they already have schedules, time tables, and plans for everthing. Blizzard is a company and as a company tries to make as much money as they can. So long as they are getting a steady flow of income they will do the bare minium to keep it that way so as to make more money. But they would never spend more just to make everyone happy. It's bad bussiness.

So stop talking trash to the Developers. These are really hard working people. That are probably understaffed for what their bosses tell them to do. They most likely put in WAY more than 40 hours a week just to do their job (As is the case in most empolyees in the video game industy. Look it up on Google if you don't believe me). And then when they do manage to fix something or add something everyone gives them a bunch of crap. Man I would HATE to have their job. But what's even more amazing than this, is that almost all of them reply to our comments with no malice and no hatred. They reply calmly and as nicely as they can. Now that's class.

Look I'm not saying to suck up to the Developers, or become a Fanboy, or brown nose or anything like that. All I'm saying is that next time you see something that really pisses you off or something really bad happens just try to think about it from their point of view.
You get even more angry when it doesn't die.

   If you guys aren't interested in something someone has to say, that's fine don't read it. Hijacking their thread by filling it with spam is extremely rude and will not be tolerated under any circumstance. Seriously, think before you act and try to show at least a minimum of respect.
