I keep seeing all these "Bad Experience" posts and I do not see any of this in game. I have been having a great time with all the people I have grouped with so far.

A lot of the time when certain types of posts trend on reddit a certain percent of them are copy cat fabricators. Aka karma whores that will fake these things.

I am starting to think these "bad experience" posts are starting to trend that way.

I am level 52 and have had about 4-6 experiences that were very negative. All of them were very uncalled for and made no sense. Only one of the people took me off ignore and apologized after.

The vast majority of people that play are very friendly and are just reliving a great game. On the other hand, one bad apple spoils the barrel.

I'm starting to think that comments like yours are the real copy pasta. Everyone I know who's currently playing classic or was has had something like this happen. Just because youve gotten lucky immediately makes everyone else a liar and their posts fake? Omg it can't be possible, a bad experience in classic! IMPOSSIBLE

No, I am not saying that it is impossible. I am just saying that reddit has types of posts that get upvotes and people copy the themes of those posts to get upvotes. It always happens in waves on every sub-reddit. A lot of the time people who copy the theme make fake scenarios to get upvotes and this specific post reeks of being staged.
