After the release of patch 8.1 a few addons have ceased to work, but most importantly and one that has a huge impact of rp servers is the addon crossrp.
This addon revolutionised rp for many people on the realm. It enabled new communities to be built and flourish, as well as people who remained on Horde to still rp with their friends who migrated to the Alliance (due to the lore direction Horde had been taken) under a neutral stance. Since the addon has now been effectively made obsolete, the impact on communities here (and across many realms) has been felt keenly and causing many to question or justify if rp on the game is of worth at all (please see related forum threads to confirm this on many rp realms).
It is such a huge shame changes have been made that have caused the addon to fail. Many including myself see the faction war as secondary to rp opportunities (in all honesty, I find the story itself incredibly similar to MOP and so I have very little vested interest in it). Is there any possible way for the developer of the addon, through guidance / advice from developers at Blizzard to find a way for a possible work around on this?
