I hope it was relieving to get that out. |

My main is actually a Warlock. It's not impossible. I think we got off on the wrong foot. Hi, my name is Timbal. I'm a Forum Moderator. If a thread is inflammatory or non-constructive by nature, it may be locked or deleted, such as was the case with the thread to which I believe you're referring here. If you want to present concerns about your class, by all means do so here. I only ask that you exercise human decency, post constructively, and do your best to be persuasive. Hint: saying it is impossible to kill a Hunter/Rogue/Warrior is not persuasive; it's an absolute statement that is probably proven wrong every second the realms remain online, and comes off as whining. One last thing. Please don't threaten me with the might of all of your accounts posting. I can ban an account faster than you can get logged into the forums. With that all said, I think we'll get along just great. : ) |

What is the purpose of this post? If you're trying to tell me how the forums should be moderated according to your expectations, I'd appreciate it if you'd send feedback to WoWcmfeedback@blizzard.com. I gave the original poster time to cool off, explained the reasoning and motivation behind my moderation techniques on the class forums, and overlooked what was suspension-worthy by opening a dialog with him. It's surely easy for players to scrutinize the every action of a public representative of Blizzard Entertainment, when even the intent behind our punctuation usage can be called into question; but in the end the Warlock class has several legitimate concerns, and there's no implicit reason to publicly pry at the one response I made to this thread you feel wasn't entirely necessary.
I'm not sure what you mean by this. Are you saying that I'm wrong for claiming it's not impossible to ever kill a Warrior/Rogue/Hunter?
I've spent many hours over the past several months issuing suspensions for, and deleting threads created by those who came here simply to chastise and ridicule the Warlock class.
If you're suggesting that you have tangible proof that we, as moderators, target only posts made by Warlocks, please reveal it. You see what you need to see to validate your concerns. Again, dealing in absolute statements removes legitimacy from your assertions. |

As a moderator, I'm unable to appropriately address these concerns. I will say that I've read much of the thread linked above (as well as this one: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=2856224217&s id=1) and will pass along the feedback as I am able within the confines of my job description and duties. Since many questions currently directed at me are relating to Community Management and Development roles, I will take my leave back to moderation. It was my goal in this thread to make sure players with real concerns weren't allowing themselves to be disregarded by posting hyperbole, or Code of Conduct violations. Many of you are quite eloquently voicing your concerns; and for that I thank you. I can only assure you that our Community Manager staff will always do their best to engage or pass along your concerns when applicable. Keep the constructive persuasion flowing and you'll see very little of me. ; ) |
