Pet Peeve #37: With a License to Peeve

It is kind of more like instant messenger rather than an actual forum.

Several people are replying…

[Bramblefur-argent-dawn (Bramblefur)]

Whyyyyy? There was nothing wrong with it.

[Ranor-argent-dawn]

Also the trust level is CHARACTER SPECIFIC

Oh joy

Oh, screw that. What the hell?

[Darianuth-argent-dawn (Darianuth)]

From what I gather? It’s because this is just a hacked version of the system OWs forums use. Which only has ONE account (Your Bnet account) but here each character is considered it’s own account. This is why on alts you can like your own posts. Repeatedly.

That said doing so does unveil who your alts are, so abuse with caution?

Oh god it FORCES me to use emojis. Blizzard why?

[Croecell-argent-dawn (Croecell)]

Until they change it. Which will be because they’ll see people upvoting their own posts on their alts.

EDIT: Also can see all your edits @Darianuth

[Darianuth-argent-dawn (Darianuth)]

I’m sure this will not be poked at or abused to mock people. Nope.

You can hide your forum profile.

But you can easily see who did what, which is hilarious.

Even if the forum system is the same OW has - it is still so weird and FB-like that it doesn’t make it -good-. As was said, this more looks like an instant messenger rather than an actual forum. Why the change? Was it like massively debated that people needed that or what

i can actually see that happening thou in a way to make theyr posts look legit so people will think its someone else and like it akin to achievement hunters but in this case forum like hunters .

It’s likely to just unify and “modernise” all the forums.

Cripes and I thought the last ‘mobile device-ification’ overhaul was bad.

Don’t get me wrong - I don’t mind that if it comes with a universal amnesty hehe

[Darianuth-argent-dawn (Darianuth)]

My character keeps changing when I change pages or threads.

WHO AM I?!

Yeah, I know that. But I could see that happening.

Or rather, i just want it to happen, I like being able to swap alts on a whim.

[Koiffen-argent-dawn (Koiffen)]

I’ll do you one better, HOW are you?

[Croecell-argent-dawn (Croecell)]

I can’t put replies into other forums.

[Darianuth-argent-dawn (Darianuth)]

Peeve: The fact that at complete random I can’t reply to some threads. The reply button is just gone. What?

[anon59406485]

Can’t even view mogs anymore…

[Distantpeak-argent-dawn (Distantpeak)]

Yeah, this new forum can well and truly eat my poo.
