Now I'm the first to admitt I am not in anyway pc smart's I can turn on my p.c an launch wow :P
But I have seen alot of comments to do with this addon an am curious so have decided to c&p quotes since I of course don't know how it would work.
Q u o t e:
Actually it is just the mod. Personally I don't give a toss if some retard won't take my alt to a pug because my gearscore is too low.
But when im lagging out in a 25-man because I'm getting spammed by 15 people for 6kb per second each, given that my latency is already near 400ms with tunnelling, that really grinds my gears.
The worst part is gearscore continues to spam anyone you have whispered or grouped with, or added to your friends list forever. You don't even have to be in a group with them for gearscore to be ruining their gaming experience. For this reason it is a malicious addon that should be banned anyway, given that it is capable of affecting players who do not and have never had it installed.

Q u o t e:
3) Add-ons must not negatively impact World of Warcraft realms or other players.
Add-ons will perform no function which, in Blizzard Entertainment's sole discretion, negatively impacts the performance of the World of Warcraft realms or otherwise negatively affects the game for other players. For example, this includes but is not limited to excessive use of the chat system, unnecessary loading from the hard disk, and slow frame rates.

If I have you on ignore it's probably because you have gearscore, and no I will not remove you until you delete it from your computer.
[quote]worst part of gearscore is the extra lag it introduces to both the player running it, and the people who dont have it installed but are being scanned by it.
Just some of the comments I have found.....
What I would like to know...
Is this true?
If so could this be the cause to a few of us in game having the random DC's that boot us right to the log in screen? (Only have to look around Tec forums to see alot of people having lag, DC, FPS issues)
Just curious thanks :)
