I will be playing this feral. Don't Complain. Thanks in advance

Laurenti pls learn that every time you make these threads you get bashed. It hurts my soul every time.
[MENTION=15498]Tiptoe[/MENTION], you act like I get upset because other people think negatively of me on an online forum :D
 
Considering you ran straight to teamspeak and whined for a good few minutes about how toxic and oppressive the community was, JUST because you were blatantly going against the one most widely-agreed community stance with some self-made justification... I'd say you might.

:^)
 
How did that feral work out last night? I was not able to play.
Perhaps you should set yourself an AP threshold. That way you can at least wear gear in all slots.

It went very well! I played a few games, but then logged off it because living threatened to ban me from the tc if I queued again on it.

"Threatened" you???
Oh my...
Because you played a class/spec you liked to play? What has twinking come to when we can't even play the characters we want to play in PuGs?
You should not have capitulated so easily.
What is next? We can't use consumables in PuGs? Or start limiting enchants in PuGs... Might as well start playing Starter accounts.
Premades are one thing, but open play is quite another...

Community.
 
It was an interesting experiment, Laurenti Had you approached it a little more differently, we might've had a different outcome. The ban is still fairly new, and we didn't want your presence to dissuade others from adhering to the ban. After we get randoms on board with bans, we can very well look more closely at your method.

I'm curious, what did you do to reduce stats? Would it be comparable to say, just removing your weapon? Because while most gear/chants would be impossible to micro-manage from an enforcement standpoint, the presence of displayed weapon is obvious.

I have no idea how removing a weapon would affect the damage of a full-geared feral, would love to test with another feral in duels/2s. I can't personally test, because that ton has no actual gear.
It will still be hard to monitor, because you are doing all of your damage in cat form.
In that full boa enchanted set, I had 5k hp, and 190 ap. Not sure about my crit. I will compare dps between boa feral with weapon and boa feral without weapon though.

Not everyone can/wants to participate in regular premading (supposing that was something that existed presently). Community is inherently collaborative, is ruled by consensus, and is not a right you have. Some yielding is necessary, if everyone did whatever they wanted in PuGs, it would precipitate an arms race of ferals, consumables, arcane bombs, etc that would deal an eventually lethal blow to the bracket.

I understand that. But to bow to peer pressure so quickly is a sign a weakness. Shame on him. And shame on Living for publicly threatening him with humiliation of the loss of a TC spot. That was pretty childish. It is a game for God's sake. I think you all are losing sight of that.
 
I was basically told don't play the feral, or don't play in the tc. Living said if I queued another game on the feral, then I could not play in the tc, so I logged to my ele sham.

Living, I'm honestly not sure why you posted in the thread saying saying that you had talked to me, and that I had agreed not to play feral.

You did talk to me. I never promised you anything about not trying feral for a game or two.

By posting that optimistic misinformation, you made it look like my word cannot be trusted, which it can.

Bowing to peer pressure? This isn't supposed to be some sort of bizarre battle of wills. It's potwntially a worthwhile conversation to start having about whether ferals can exist in some form in the future with gear restrictions. However, said conversation needs to occur first. Saying it's a game isn't terribly meaningful. If we acknowledge that it's just a game, so what? It's a game we are playing for fun and rules are being made in accordance with the idea of fun for the most people possible.

So...
You are agreeing that not playing feral is a positive thing by saying it was optimistic info to think you would not be Queing.

You worry about your word, yet desregard the heavy majoritys plea to not Q as feral to improve the enjoyment for everyone?

I really don't get it man.
