Respect

It's a vicious circle.

Hunters just want to play and have fun.
Others don't just face a single hunter with whatever individual motivations, but an over-abundance.
They get annoyed being overwhelmed even by the less skilled hunters.
Annoyed people complain.
People who face a constant stream of complaints get annoyed.
Annoyed people complain.

I think I sometimes see similar complaints regarding paladins, and come MoP they will get worse. I suggest not going on a crusade to redeem your class, but just play what you have fun with. :)
 
Seriously why should we NOT disrespect you? You play an alliance hunter. You need to wake up and realise that most people hate them/
 
Respect is earned. Sorry if you thought playing a hunter slightly better than the Night Elf morons would earn you that. I don't care how much time you've put into your toon or how respectable you think your play is, Hunters hurt the bracket as much as GY farming and AFKing. The people who you apparently respect for not complaining nonstop about hunters and uhh "countering us" (lol) are just resigned to the fact that people don't care about competition and just wanna blow shit up on a Hunter. If you want respect why don't you make yourself respectable, and stop posting with this false sense of entitlement.

like cap'd
 
though i think its been pretty well covered ill say it again
it should be all about you
you play this game because you picked it
you play your class because you picked it
why does your enjoyment of the game depends on other and this lack of "respect"

what does it matter what, so-and-so said or thinks about you
just like in life not everyone is going to like you
that is an unrealistic goal

as long as you can still look at yourself in the mirror you're doing fine
 
Honestly I respect you, I just don't respect your class. I'm sure thats how most people feel. I'm sure you are a great player, but the fact that you play a hunter its very hard to tell between good and bad, when every hunter uses the same strategy to beat most classes.


As for my comment, I apologize if it came off as insulting its just how I feel about what the class does to people who play it. it makes them believe they really are very good at their class, when they actually aren't. If anything, I just wish for a little balance for the class. I can promise if balance ever comes to this class. no one will ever have anything bad to say about hunters ever again. You can even see it in Bg's "OP hunters". Not "OP Lilhunter" So its not a jab at the person (some times it is) but most if not all the anger is directed at the class. Its just seems odd that the hunter can be played at 50% of its potential and do great, while most other classes have to play at their max (besides paladins to an extent) to even do half as good as a hunter.
 
I don't like pallies. I have problems facing them sometimes. They gang up and kill me over and over sometimes. So does that mean I can insult their intelligence? Does that mean I can call them a noob for rolling a pally? The constant day to day comments about me just for rolling a hunter I guess got to me so I felt like posting a thread. I guess I could insult every pally I see just because I don't like them and it seems people use that right alot more with hunters because they don't like dying from them over and over.

This thread isn't about me specifically I just speak up for myself and my class (I have always liked hunters since starting WoW), It's about those countless respectful hunters that I have seen (ally and horde both) that don't speak up for themselves and take the ridicule and insults better then me I guess without letting it get to them. The class doesn't describe the player and general idea around this bracket and community is that hunters are bad and only are played by people who are incapable of playing other classes. I guess I should just learn to ignore certain people on bg chat and here since their minds are already made up about all hunters.

If you don't respect me because of something I have done FINE. I'm not asking for myself to be respected as I know there are things that I could work on to become nicer I'm asking for a class to be respected and if you can't do that then I guess this thread was pointless and instead of posting a rude comment you can just laugh and go to something new. I'm done venting now :S
 
when its the few against the many, you either speak up, or get talked down. I see why you needed to say something, no one ever said you couldn't stand up for your class, but don't expect many to agree with you. However you let us know that this is something that bothers you. Honestly there is little difference between you who is tired of having your class looked down upon, and those who are tired of your class beating us down. Both sides of this party are just..... tired. I for one am tired. Having anger management problems isn't healthy and doesn't fit with this bracket, might give me an ulcer one of these days.
 
I have always liked hunters since starting WoW

May be true, but..

seeing when I started this bracket I would be farmed by horde 24 hunters atleast twice a day. So guess what? I made a damn hunter

You made one because they were overpowering you. You can't ask for respect when you rolled your class because of it's ridiculous strengths. Well, you can, but I nor anyone else owes it to you at all.

A good player who plays a fair class earns respect through playing well. That is the difference between a hunter and say, a warlock. A warlock can be ungodly hard to kill if they know their shit, and you're damn well going to respect them for it. But when your class can global everything without any training or work involved, why the fuck do they deserve respect when they're played well?

If you want my respect, play a balanced class and play it well.

this is the thing, it is all about you like it or not, you're trying to defend a class that doesnt need it
its like trying to convince someone that baseball is worth watching when they already know they hate it, its not going to work and you're just going to end up upsetting yourself or them over it

i run around bgs on a double agm human hunter buffed to 2k-2.3k most times, i am aware how most people view our class
i am also aware how easy we are to play and how compared to other classes we have a much higher amount of players that have no idea what they are doing

im sorry someone hurt your feelings, while no one deserves to be treated like garbage it happens get used to it
please dont try put a whole class on your back and carry us to any kind of "redemption"
we dont need the tag "whiny" to go along with all the others im sure you've heard before

The difference is that most times you get killed by a pally (or a group of them), you can point to mistakes that you made. Paladins can't touch you at 40 yard range and you have multiple forms of CC to maintain a gap with them. Even without perfect play, they shouldn't regularly cause problems for you. There is much much much less room for error fighting against a hunter. For most classes, the best course of action is to avoid them completely. There are very few options when a hunter engages you at 40 yards (for example, a BM hunter catching up to you with Pathfinding - Spell - World of Warcraft and getting a conc. shot off when you're trying to get past mid to an EFC). Hunters require FULL attention and field awareness. A couple hunters with the ability to zoom their camera out controlling mid COMPLETELY changes the way you need to play the game. If pallies are controlling mid against your team and dominating you, you're straight up bad at this game.
 
I'm probably the best hunter to play this bracket and I can tell you right now you're full of it. If you play hunter to it's max (and I'd like to think I came damn close if not did) you are literally untouchable. The only person that ever beat me was Goldendays on a holy paladin and that was because our infinite duels got so boring I had to come in t o h is LoS to let him HoJ me. If I had not done that we would have dueled for eternity.

Hunters. Are. A. Class. That. Has. Zero. Skill. Is there a skill cap? Yes. There's a reason I could beat every hunter 1v1. With that being said though, hunters are beyond overpowered in this bracket and there is zero reason anyone should give you respect for playing one. I'd much rather have been known for my myriad of other classes than my hunter.

ITT: Stop complaining about not getting respect as a hunter and reroll a different class.

Edit: Also, I love how in the same sentence the OP talks about "people complaining about eyepatch" and the next sentence is "Horde loses because they are mostly undergeared." You don't see the link between the two? Come on now. Reroll a different class (and not a priest or holy paladin) and I promise you will never complain about the lack of respect again. Until then you're a no-brainer hunter, always and forever.

Even hunters hate hunters. I've been in a BG with the OP where they whined about hunters "crutching" on disarm, which BTW, you can trinket out of, if you used one. The whole "stop complaining about hunters, make one yourself" argument would be fine, assuming you wanted to play a hunter, and assuming you wanted to play 10v10 hunter, which I don't think even the must tard of tardcore huntards want.

Hunters at low level have the highest DPS/range/CC/escape in the game by a long way and it's completely unbalanced. Like I said, even hunters hate hunters. Even the OP hates hunters.

No one rolls huntard for the respect.

As for the horde versus ally huntard debate, it's not really important. Both sides are full of huntards and it's perfectly possible to make an OP hordetard as it is to make an allytard.
 
Look while what your doing is commendable and entirely right its not realistic because while there are the few of us that play hunter well and not just roll or face across the keyboard most are bad players that don't try to gear or learn how to play there character at all hunter as a class is OP but does deserve its share of respect too without us hunters Healers would be to godly and 24's would be dominate much more than they do our roll is to keep strong healers down and even odds against 24's that's what a hunter deserves respect for not camping gy's owning mid 1 shooting under geared players or the plethora of other things we do for enjoyment. I respect you for the way you play though you don't camp is 1 trait I admire in you you run flags/play objective is another, and your good at playing hunter (key bindings aside). I try'ed to do this in bg chat a long time a go and gave up after a week because i saw it would never work . The cause of that is all the hunters that camp, play non objectively, have no skill, or otherwise just troll people. most players don't separate them from the hunter class. That's why hunters get so much hate. Trust me if we hunters weren't here people would complain about healers or the bracket would die do to unstoppable 24's. We are needed to keep balance in this bracket while we may be OP that's what gives us the power to do what we do things like stop 24's from camping the gy all game every game so I respect you for this I respect hunter as a class I respect your intention but while its deserved its not realistic. If you want someone to blame, blame all the people that roll hunter because its easy or all the trolls and haters.

(Grats on you 100k hk's btw)

stop flaming lilhunter already. he may be a hunter but atleast he doesnt form premades for the sole purpose of gy farming like you AP kids. who cares if he doesnt have much respect. he probably have 10000000 times more respect than premade forming gy farming AP kids.

AP never farms bro, idk who you have seen from our server farming, but they most likely aren't from our community, horde or ally. get your facts straight before you shoot your mouth off.
 
horde ap premades are the ones i seen gy farming mostly. oh and the A-team did hold the flag for 25 minutes and farmed before. they farmed right below the gy so you cant exactly call it Gy farming. see the A-team thread for more details if you can be bothered reading all the pages.

Quite frankly I really hope you were in that game and I really hope we farmed the shit out of you.

Edit: Yes, we farmed. We're good at it too so I hope we run into you again.
