It’s not off-topic.
Secondly , until proven wrong, my argument is valid and yours isn’t. When we will get the first thing added into Classic which was not in Vanilla, then your argument will be valid and mine not…anymore.
It’s simple, really!
Trolling? Do you even know what trolling means?
serious pvp - people will hide pvp gear and before you know it that peasant looking guy will crush you being in full pvp tier, yes people will absolutely do it, theres no reason not to, transmog run groups and chat announcements, prices on specific items will change that can change farming and economy, extra gold sinc and pretty big one potentially, slippery slope argument, vanilla feeling of finally looking nice in good/matching gear and seeing good stuff on people that will encourage you go and earn it cause you look like a clown being low level (and its good), there is not that many cool looking gear in classic compared to all retail expansions so we will see more players looking alike/same on between each other and in their own progression with levels cause they will mog new drops with same old “cool” mog, but I wanna see those silly helms and boots and weird dresses, its part of vanilla experience.
We don’t need barber shop, but at least it practically wont affect things at all, while transmog will affect how people will play the game and how they percieve the game.
Didn’t Blizz warn to be careful at character creation because the only way to change it is to delete and start again?
If you don’t like your hair or face, get a hat or a mask. There’s cloth items that hide it and everyone can wear cloth. 
I don’t think they’ll put a goblin barber shop into classic. It would be an out of place anomaly that didn’t exist.
make a new one.
it’s not BFA =)
Name changes? No, you shouldn’t be able to simply change your name at any given time, reputation and sh*t yo.
Race changes? No, I do believe your choice here should matter and be final, racial fantasy bla bla bla.
But please be realistic here, like who really gives a toss about somebody being able to change their hairstyle ingame, just have it cost a hefty amount of gold if you’re so butthurt about it (50g or something idk). You shouldn’t have to recreate your character for a different hairstyle lmao.
All you “IT’S NOT BFA #nochanges” kids are cringe and have likely never achieved anything in the game (both bfa and vanilla/classic).
Instead of trying to tell somebody they can’t change their hairstyle in Classic because nO cHaNgEs how about you go and moan about something that is actually impacting the game like layering and how certain (wise) players abused it early on to become the equivalent of millionaires on Classic.

I liked until I read “Other then”. I stopped reading. LULW NA education Pepega Clap
It’s not about the impact here, and it seems most of you don’t realize yet, that Blizzard will NOT change 1 bit of a thing in Classic.
They HAVE change small things here and there. Things that are purely graphical, like the way water looks. And the resolution. And how flight-taxis fly.
If you had the option to change your face, no one would notice. Other than that barber shop existing in some places. But I think the majority would be able to ignore those too.

The differense between a barber shop and Transmog, is that Transmog would actually effect the gameplay.
Why? Because what your character is wearing gives information. Information on what gear that person has equiped. If you could transmog gear, you hide/conceal that information.
That is not a factor when it comes to haircuts and faces though.

I’m sorry but where the hell did anyone ask for transmog? Did some of you severely dense #nochanges dimwits not even read the thread?
Barber shop and character appearance are pretty much the same thing. They don’t impact the gameplay AT ALL.
I don’t care for Transmog and nor am I asking for it. But a trip to the barbers for me ol’ Westfall farmer once in a while isn’t too much to ask. Like I said before, as a roleplayer it would be massively appreciated if they put the barber shop in-game.
#Nochanges morons are just being ridiculous really and dare I say half of them actually weren’t even around for vanilla wow lol.
You clearly know nothing of the lore lol.
A great number of roleplayers would disagree with having to do this just for their character’s decision to change their hairstyle now and then not to mention wearing a hat or mask might not fit their character’s personality or design.

i couldn’t agree more on that. especially when there is no cross server name means a lot.
Have you seen the design of the barber shop in current wow? It doesn’t belong in classic.
There is nothing to stop roleplaying on roleplaying realms in current, if changing appearance on a whim is so important. We all have to make choices.
Could you explain to me about the design that doesn’t belong in classic? It’s been a few years since I can recall the difference way back when.

It doesn’t look like something from classic, because it wasn’t in vanilla. It would need a design change to slip seamlessly into classic graphics and look as though it’s always been there and it feels too frivolous to me. It doesn’t fit.
It’s a lot of work to faff around with for something that wasn’t in vanilla and is cosmetic. So like I said, to me it would be an anomaly.
I’m playing classic/vanilla, I don’t really want to see things from future expansions brought into it. That’s my stance on it as a classic player on HW. I don’t want to see a barber shop when I’m walking about and I most certainly don’t want to see the ‘wrong’ hairstyles on characters, even if they did bring it in. It’s how I ‘feel’ about it.

Completely agree.
The #nochanges crowd have a ridgid mindset and are taking it way too far.
If it was made a paid service (no barbers in game) and no new hairstyles added, then it would have zero affect on anyone else’s gameplay whether someone else got their hair changed for a fee and a cooldown (3 months is probably good).
It really is ridiculous that it’s not already an offered service. Yes, we want authentic vanilla wow, but this service wouldn’t change that and is heavily in demand. It’s 2019, not EVERYTHING has to be the same as it was in 2004. We play Classic WoW for the GAMEPLAY, not worrying about how someone else changed their hairstyle. And no, this is not asking for transmog. That is clearly over the line.
Ask yourself, if in vanilla wow it was impossible to change your talents, would you want that in this game just because that’s how it was? No. Talent changes are offered so that player’s choices aren’t set in stone forever, while still being a high fee so that your choice matters. That’s the perfect balance we need to have with character appearance and name changes.

If there was no barber shop in game and you could only choose from options that you could have chosen for your character at character creation, it wouldn’t bother me.
It’s the barber shop I’m against. I feel like I’m playing vanilla and if I walked past a barber shop it would grate on me, it’s too obvious a change from future expansions.
It’s off-topic because our discussion is about general features being added to the game. Your argument is that “Classic will stay true to Vanilla” whatever that means. Nothing I’ve said contradicts that, unless you’re saying the game will get no further updates after Phase 6, in which case I wish you good luck.
Can you say otherwise? That game will receive updates after Phase 6?
When I say if you can say, I mean official and not some theories. As we speak, there will be no updates after Phase 6, regarding CLASSIC.
Maybe they will release BTC as separated servers, who knows, but … as I said, facts are that Classic will remain untouched.
