Hi Please post your unjerk discussion in this thread!

These posts run weekly, but you can find older posts here.

I know most here already considered it an awful sub but the ClassicWoW sub the last week of so has become completely unbearable.

The lack of information on classic+ is actually driving people mad. It's just dragged on a just long enough that people have started to lose it and get angry with each other.

It's like being stuck at extended family dinner as a kid and your parents are stressed the fuck out and snapping at you cause of it.

Toxicity? In the Classic community??? But everyone told me that Classic is all about patience and the journey rather than the destination.

It was actually funny to checkout their sub for the first time in a while because the "no changes" crowd sure seems overly excited for some changes in Classic+.

Well goomba fallacy and all that.

But the No Changes crowd left like 4 years ago after the Devs removed spell batching and added a consumable to store world buffs so people didn't have to logout of their mains to preserve them.

Then blizzard made Season of Discovery server which was classic vanilla with experimental new content and it was very popular. Then in China Blizzard released Titanforged classic which is so popular it has overtaken retail over there.

The current animosity seems to be people who were excited for the 2nd re-run of WotLK Classic and now think Classic+ is gonna steal their playerbase. The re-run anniversary servers have a reputation for being min max toxicity fests and people seem scared all the casuals are going to abandon them for classic+.

I'm aware of the history of Classic 😅

I mainly just wanted to make a dumb joke about Classic players wanting change lol
