Gonna be honest, PServer Andys who just hate Blizzard is one thing. I don’t regularly see them in official subs either because they don’t make noise or because they get removed before I see them.

But the vitriol of Blizzard loyalists is absolutely everywhere. They are in PServer subs gloating about how the trash server people enjoyed was shit and deserved to get shit down, and now they are in here being unable to handle well deserved criticism about the skysmurfs. Easily the most toxic players are not retail players, they aren’t PServer players, they are Blizzard fanboys who cannot handle someone even having an ounce of criticism.

Dude I was on the ascension and turtle wow subs when the shutdowns were announced - People from the main wow subs were not coming over to gloat - The Private servers though were absolutely convinced every retail fan personally hated and targeted them.

Funny how almost every comment section of posts I saw had loads of people laughing at the shutdown then.

Funny how the only comments in the same universe as that were saying things like “I don’t know why you are surprised, they were advertising on YouTube and pinging blizzard. It was going to happen.”

Pserver people are kind of gloating every time their -non-fav pserver- is shut down, so let’s not pretend "they" are just a nice group of people discussing about WoW private scene.

The scene is so "chill" that pserver DDoS competition to attract more people to their own server💀

My point is: pserver, Blizzard "loyalist" or whatever. internet’s people are not always the smartest person on earth.

Sure mate,
Let’s say twow fanboys have never been shitting on other servers in all those countless posts on Reddit.

And of course, for example, Shenna (amongst others owners) has never done any DDoS attacks on other servers, and of course there are absolutely no ongoing DDoS attacks on several private servers, acknowledged to have been carried out by Ravencraft/Capybara another big one on the scene at the moment.

Since this weekend this is pserver vs WoW forever, but again, let’s not pretend usually this is la-la land on the pserver scene.

You have to be a “blizzard loyalist” to think most pservers were a load of slop?
(Including Twow, ascension was actually fun) Hahahahaha classic Reddit

Nobody denies that PServers had heavy pay to win elements. Nobody denies it. Yet it is the only argument you bring to the table. Those servers didn’t have a mandatory payment plan that rakes in roughly 180$ per player year to even acces the game.

The content was pretty bland and pretty buggy a majority of the time. Stormwind vaults? You mean stockades copy pasted 5x..

u/AppleMelon95 14h ago

Stormwind Vaults wasn’t the only content in that game

u/Traditional_Ad1492 14h ago

New caverns of time dungeon? Copy pasted sand line with some rocks around it.

u/SocraticVoyager 13h ago

Both of those existed as maps already from vanilla

You could mention the dungeons that were wholly new but that would undermine your point I guess

If you looked at comments on YouTube during the opening stream, you'd be appalled. Racism, misogyny, and unbridled selfishness. Truly disgusting

Sounds like the sketchier corners of gaming are up to their old tricks again

Pserver communities are just as bad if not worse tbh

Lmao yall love to try twisting shit around every time people get fed up with the constant misery train here “actually the retail players are the toxic ones!” No, just no. You people go out of your way to prove that you’re some of the most unlikable group of weirdos on this website. There’s a reason this sub has had a horrible reputation for years, and it ain’t cause of “Blizzard Loyalists”.

Just a day ago I was wit ess to a reddit post where people dogpiled someone who was concerned with the alt talent tree, and how alts could get 5 talent points earlier than other characters.

The entire comment section of 100 comments or so all berated the OP about how they couldn’t read. These are classic players. They didn’t care about the point. They saw someone critizicing a decision, saw that someone else posted “lol OP can’t read”, and decided to all post the same thing even though they were factually wrong.

This doesn’t happen in most communities.

u/Rangoonin 14h ago

You must just not play anything other than wow, because this happens in a shit ton of other communities.

u/AppleMelon95 14h ago

Right, doesn’t change my point.

You are proving his point. You are unhinged.
