So what you're saying is because pro-flight couldn't change their minds, you gave up on progressing the game for the better with your development mindset of experiencing the content from the ground floor? Pro-flight destroyed this game going forward. Got it. Thanks.

Forums ≠ Community
7 Million people play this game. Not many people look at the US Forums/3rd party websites nor even know there is a flying argument going on. The people who don't look at the Forums/3rd party websites may have a entirely different view about flying, but simply don't respond.

Whenever I read a reply to me that starts with, "So what you're saying is..." -- and I've read so, so many -- my first thought is, "What I'm saying is what I'm saying, otherwise I would've said something else."
you guys as a developer team presented a large essay explaining why flying mounts are a deterrence for gameplay to WoW in all general aspects. now that's kinda just negated by people who would rather get the easiest convenience?

You say "What I'm saying is what I'm saying" and that's exactly what you said. "Progress is impossible without change". The dev team dared to be different. To change. After 8 years of flying, you decided to make a design choice. To change. To progress. You went back on that change and went back on that progression.
I'm not replacing your words (that you quoted, to be fair, so not entirely yours). Following them exactly as you wrote them.

Hades no. They looked at subscription numbers and flipped a switch.

Who wouldn't be exactly? sounds like you guys were forced into making the blog when it should have just been a standard of business practice to clearly communicate solid answers

If this is your team motto I can see why you needlessly change things every expac and even patch in the past. I never liked it, but I guess I am unable to progress then.
