Hey moderators? Can you put the email address of where we report you too into your signature lines?


So many constructive debates started and yet you lock based on 1 person's ability to make a troll post. The game and players who have concerns about issues with the game would like to be able to discuss and (friendly debate) such topics, but to lock a post because you have an issue with one poster is not constructive. You don't really help in the long run and to the rest of the community you come across as making the game not a place open for constructive criticism but rather a place where your judgement overules all. I will agree that a good amount of posts are started with the intention of making rude, inflammatory posts, but some aren't and because 1 person messed up, you punish the effort put into viable threads.

Yes it's your job. Yes we pay to play. Yes we have concerns that we want to discuss. Yes you
/lock because of 1.

Let us voice our concerns. Don't call them all nerf threads. Don't call them already good posted threads from old forums that people want to post again because they're either "that good" or people want to re-kindle discussion or good debate. We are the players and we want to discuss these things. If all you do is continually lock peoples threads then the discussion will ultimately end and the forums will become useless. If we *as the players* can discuss 'what we feel' as class imbalance, then why do we have these forums at all. Obviously a good majority feel there is discussion with that, right? Else we wouldnt see all these constructive threads locked with a simple "don't post nerf threads". You're not giving us the option of debate...

If at all possible we try to allow threads to continue, debates to rage on, and discussions to flourish. There are times when that is not possible, and it is during these times that entire threads are locked or deleted. If this happens we will include a message explaining why the thread was locked, and encourage the main topic to be created again minus the spam and trolls.

If you have any complaints about us moderators or one of the CMs please email wowcmfeedback@blizzard.com as stated above.
