Ok yes i understand u are not obligated to play are class to level 60 blah blah blah.
*that's Nice*
/sarcasm
Um... u work for blizzard i bet u 100% there is a way for the devs to start u off with a naked 60 hunter. Through a special armor, through programming, through anything. Ask them to make u a level 60 character and play it for a month u will find out are flaw and get a better understanding of how are end-game is. It will help u and us out greatly. thank u.
Love,
Corrupted
P.S.- can i join ur guild :)

No, I am not going to unbalance a live realm by cheating a level 60 Hunter onto my account.
1) It's certainly not fair to all the other players on my realm or other realms for that matter.
2) Much of a Hunter's frustration comes from levelling up, levelling faster than their pet due to rest xp, etc. A level 60 Hunter wouldn't give me that experience, and I would miss out on the time it takes to learn your class (i.e. when you level up).
To address the rest of the complaints:
There are five members of the Community Team. There are nine classes. There are going to be classes we don't play as our mains; that's just math. Blizzard has no plans to expand their Community Team to nine members, though we are hiring an Assistant Community Manager, so you're not going to get a Hunter-only advocate. I'm stating this plainly to you because it's the truth. I'm what you have. Instead of making petitions to replace me, spend that time helping me understand your position.
As always, you can submit feedback on my performance to wowcmfeedback@blizzard.com.

Q u o t e:
You say that Bilzzard has no plans to expand its community team. Why not? This sounds like a good idea to me.
We're hiring an Assistant Community Manager, but we have no plans to make this a "Class Representative" team. Management is of the belief that we convey the issues to developers well enough without such a system.

Q u o t e:
what about a test realm where players can tweak their characters fairly easily...skill wise... level wise... and have access to lots of raw materials(for crafting).
this would definitely let people test things promptly and easily.
Moor
At the same time, it does not provide the authentic player experience, since no one is actually playing the full game on test realms.
And there is no way, no how that a free level 60 is being added to my account. That is company policy, and again, it would not help me understand much of the Hunter "problem". This is not up for discussion -- that is the way things are, period.

I'm aware that most of your frustrations are with the high end game. However, the issues with pets start mid-level, and you can't really experience that fully without levelling up.

Q u o t e:
Then why aren't devs doing it? Answer that.
Developers doing what, exactly? Levelling up Hunters? They do play the class, you realize. :P

Q u o t e:
ROFL
you made cay angry! This is the first post that she has ever replied to more then once.
The OP is right though Cay you wont notice any problems with your hunter untill you reach level 60. For hunters to be fixed in a timely manner you either have to power level your hunter alt or CHEAT like we reccomend. Nuff Said
Incorrect. I've replied to several posts more than once.
I am not cheating and I am not powerlevelling my Hunter. I will continue to bring the issues posted on this forum to the developers. That's all there is to it. This is not changing.

Q u o t e:
The problem here, Cay, is that some people think you actually work in the same physical location as the developers. In reality, you are just a stay-at-home powergamer who does this for cash.
Am I right?
You are wrong. I'm in the Irvine office right now.
Your opinion on my skill is just that, but I suggest, if you wish it to be heard, you eMail wowcmfeedback@blizzard.com.
Folks, here's the way things are, and I'm being as honest and as frank with you as I can possibly be.
My boss often dictates what I do with my in-game time, and not once has he told me to level my Hunter to 60. Recently I've been asked to spend time in the high-end game to better understand the frustrations of those who have been level 60 for months, and that's what I'm doing.
For the last time, I don't take my feedback to the developers. I take your feedback to the developers. That's true of the Druid class and the Druid community, too. Some of you believe that I don't address Hunters with as much fervor as Druids, but you're dead wrong, and I'll explain why:
1) The Druid community is more passive than you folks are. You're very passionate and outspoken, and have more serious issues to be addressed. I use YOUR fervor when taking the issues to the development team.
2) In my guild, I only have to deal with myself when it comes to Druids. As far as Hunters go, I group with several vocal Hunters nightly, and when I come home and log in, the last thing I want to hear during my recreation time is more Hunter feedback. ;) The happiness of Hunters means more happiness all around.
Now, you cite what's happened to Druids as opposed to what's happened to Hunters thus far as proof that I represent them with more passion, but I've explained this before and I'll explain this again -- those changes were practically done by the time I returned with the feedback response. Because of that, they were implemented more quickly.
Your changes are farther out -- indeed, some are being made as a direct result of your feedback -- and because of that, they were in the conceptual stages when I gave you the response to the List. It takes longer to get to that. Also, the Honor System was on the back burner when the Druid changes were made. Now it's going full force, and time is divided. This lengthens the time it takes to bring these changes to you.
You don't feel this is acceptable, and that's fine, but I urge you to send any misgivings about my performance to wowcmfeedback@blizzard.com. That doesn't go to me; it goes to my supervisor. As it stands I am not going to change my playstyle, as I have several other things to address during my in-game time besides Hunters.
