Subject: Yet again, Blizzard brings MODs to all.
   To everyone who complains about not wanting to load MODs and hates them for providing an "unfair advantage"...

Blizzard continues to learn from the best and most popular MODs and apply those things to the built in UI so everyone can enjoy them.

MODs are like running Alpha and Beta software, you get fantastic toys before everyone else, although you have to deal with buggy and broken code.

Here is a list of things that Blizzard added this patch, that MODs did for us last patch:

- Raid Warnings
- Ready Checks
- Target of Target
- Color warnings of debuff types on friends
- Better Raid and Party Main Assisting through marking
- Improved loading speed when zoning
- Mousewheel can trigger buttons
- Repair all items in bags more easily

Thank you Blizzard for continuing to raise the bar of the "Vanilla" interface with these solid improvements, and thank you MOD coders for continuing to find ways to stand on that bar and reach higher.

And for those of you who don't like testing the MODs, just wait, Blizzard will bring them to you eventually.

   We like having people participate in games in ways which may be more involved, like modding. The community that is generated by such activity is creative, thoughtful and always working to improve things and realize new ideas. It is pivotal for an MMO to have such an involved section of the player base.

That we would learn from them or agree with(and incorporate) ideas coming from them is a natural and healthy part of the creative process.

That's my shout-out for the modding community ;)
