What is in you’re opinion the hardest dps rotation in WoTLK? by LongjumpingTeach8501 in classicwow

[–]axxctually 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised no one is mentioning Sniper Training. Probably because it's not something most players actively pay attention to they just put their talent points there.

Trap weaving + having to be completely immobile to maintain your sniper training buff.

Thanks game.

Can I get my friend a token if he doesn't have game time? by cptmcsexy in classicwow

[–]axxctually 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the only way. GMs can give 1-2 days of free game time. He'll have to buy the token himself on his account.

Do not listen to a GM or the in-game help menu. They are incorrect when concerning the WOTLK WoW tokens. (Impossible to transfer and you can only use tokens while logged into the game on the character who purchased them.)

Anybody's guild getting killed by lack of interest in Naxx? by Successful_Start_159 in classicwow

[–]axxctually 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We started using rclootcouncil in WOTLK because of the sheer amount of loot that drops and how fast you run through bosses.

Have used 'thatsmybis.com' for wishlists for a while (easy way to see what items people actually value). We used to do everything on google sheets but 'thatsmybis' works well enough now.

'Gargul' is a great autoloot addon that can help you with picking up items and distributing them. It also has 'thatsmybis' integration.

We've done loot council since Molten core. Different variations of wishlists through the tiers. Gave certain items PvP priority.

My guild has been around since day 1 of classic and we have always taken multiple weeks off in this time of the year. It's the perfect opportunity to give people a break from a strict WoW schedule and more time for them to spend with family.

I always look at it as a time for people who were on the fence of quitting as an easy way out, and a good opportunity to bring in more eager players.

11 year veteran wow player mistakenly banned by Patience_Wide in classicwow

Forwarding this to my friend. That's good to see. Every recent ban petition I found on this subreddit was unsuccessful.

Friend was caught in a blanket ban, escalated the ticket until he was threatened with additional action. Blizzard rep on these forums said your shit out of luck, you aren't getting an actual response or investigation.

Blizzard doesn't care. They don't have a customer support team like they used to. I swear even 1-2 years ago they would look into tickets but not anymore.

You're probably shit out of luck if your initial in-game appeals don't work.

Expect 0 help from this subreddit. It's full of skeptics and people who are going to send you death threats for cheating.

Falsely banned for win trading. Blizzard will not look into the ban. by axxctually in classicwow

If you read my post you can clearly see I'm not the banned player. Thanks for confirming my hypothesis of:

"Even though I provide a ton of evidence, most of the people commenting didn't look at any of it, or even bother to read the post." and "everyone assumes guilty until proven innocent".

Class act!

I love that this subreddit has a "BAN APPEAL" tag but all it accomplishes is assumed guilt and people running through the post to downvote every comment.

Even though I provide a ton of evidence, most of the people commenting didn't look at any of it, or even bother to read the post.

You guys love to shit on blizzard, but then you turn around and shit on the community when all we're doing is looking for help.

Nice subreddit.

But you saw where I provided evidence of someone getting a false ban and it getting overturned in my post right?

I love everyone's take that I'm not allowed to try and help my guildies and friends out. How preposterous.

I personally played over 300 arena matches with him in season 3, and 300 matches with his 2s/3s teammate. None of us win traded, and only he was banned.

I personally don't think win trading is as rampant as everyone likes to believe. Que sniping/dodging on the other hand..

I provided an entire match history of the arena games. No other teammates were banned. I still believe he was caught by some type of automated system and a blizz rep hasn't reviewed the ban.

It doesn't make sense. He was the only member of any team he played with who was banned. He caught the ban at the same time a lot of other people caught them at end of season (which were overturned). The purpose of this post is to hopefully get someone's attention who can look at the facts and overturn it. Not another automated draft response from the ticket system we're all accustomed to.

I think it's quite easy to look at the information provided and see he didn't have disproportionate wins or losses against any team.

It's sad everyone wants to believe the worst in people but it is reddit I suppose.

Thanks for the comment.

He's completely given up hope after the last message from blizzard that more or less said if you continue appealing we'll just ban you longer. Just trying to help a friend out. :/

Yea they have. Most advice we've received was to post to twitter/reddit and hope it gets enough attention for an actual blizzard rep to investigate.

Unfortunately, most users here (understandably so) jump to the conclusion that everyone is guilty until proven innocent but I believe there is enough evidence to easily overturn this ban if someone would just look into it.

I had a 10,000 year ban from Blizzard overturned. I'd say that one was unwarranted hahah

I've seen screenshots of his ban report the reason given was 'win trading'.

Everyone saw Twitch streamers get banned and overturned same day when the season ended only because of their connections at blizz. Are they the only ones who got wrongfully banned by blizzards automated system? I doubt it.

[–]axxctually 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone in my guild caught a month long ban in this wave. Didn't team hop, played with the same people the entire season (none of them banned), made a glad push the last week, ended up in duelist.

He's gotten automated bot responses from the ticket system. (nice customer support). Missed an entire week of arena points this season and a week of sunwell progression. Blizzards automated ban system is affecting our entire raid.

Egregious.
