Did you know it is illegal to sell covers of songs? Cover bands are not allowed to sell CDs unless they obtain license to sell every single individual song on the CD. They are allowed to perform, because you’re paying for their performance, not necessarily for the song.

Is he using Blizzard’s trademark to sell his stuff? The answer is obviously yes, because he’s selling WoW stuff.

Fun fact - did you know it is illegal for artists to sell prints of like Spider-Man an Batman, unless they obtain a license from the rights holders to do so? The main reason license holders don’t enforce the law is because they know not enforcing it is in their benefit. However… how would selling mod parts be a benefit to Blizz? If they could, they would get in on the business, as they did with gold trading.

Meh… Life just haven’t crushed them hard enough yet. That’s why they still care.

At this point it’s just wasted time to argue about this. I think Blizzard saw more comments about this in one day than they saw comments about why corruption was bad since 8.3 release.

If they think it’s against their rules, he is either going to get banned, or they will make him completely remove the addon or make it completely free again. If they won’t do anything about it, someone else will make a free version of this addon again.

Other than that, Nnoggie is a huge manchild, comparing free nudes to free addons is ridiculous, him editing discord messages to make a Limit raider look racist is disgusting, and he does not deserve this kind of attention, even if it’s negative. The only thing he deserves at this point is a ban for multiple things.

Doesn’t sound like this is allowed.

But you do you I’ve never used the addon if you feel like this is wrong then I guess you can report, let Blizzard sort out if this is allowed or not.

The addon creator went the wrong route in my opinion, sure it’s his addon and he is in his rights to change anything on it but it’s a bit ridiculous and also out of nowhere. So basically he messed over other people’s M+ experiences with them only finding out after updating.

I find €5,- a month to receive updates a bit much, it would’ve been a more logical decision if he made it a one-time payment per expansion or major update like this:

  • €5,- per expansion
  • €5,- per major update (9.0 / 9.1 / 9.2 / 9.3 / etc)

I would see more people supporting that decision than going full-out “Subscribe to me or your addon remains empty”

I mean makes sense anything that has to do with money is Blizzard’s problem. If people feel like they have to quit because this €5 feels mandatory or if they won’t buy a store mount/transfer/whatever because they had to pay to a 3rd party then it affects Blizzard.

also I guess add-on development policy is not ToS per se, but I’m just nitpicking you can ignore this.

#117

I mean if you enjoy the guy’s work and u can afford spending money supporting him ,you will do that anyway,so asking people to “pay you for using the add-on” ,and with that kind of attitude,hell no xD

I totaly agree with “The addon creator went the wrong route” Cheers!

#118

Everybody can decide on their own to do so or not but paying 45%~ subscription fee per month for a single addon seems a bit much to me based on the cheapest €10.99 monthly option.

Chances are that the option I mentioned would yield him more money in the long run than what he did now. It’s likely a lot of people will search for alternative addons instead or fill up the data themselves someway or the other.

People in general hate to deal with subscriptions, that is the prime reason why many people don’t buy/try World of Warcraft in the first place because they don’t like the idea of subscription fees.

This might be anecdotal but every person I spoke that doesn’t play World of Warcraft mentioned the subscription fee negatively. People just generally prefer to pay one time or once every few months on their own accord rather than being stuck with some subscription.

For those interested here is the new free alternative

Technically, maybe, but Blizzard can amend the ToS at any time, or decide to interpret it arbitrarily at any time, so the real question is whether they consider this kind of “loophole” against the spirit of their rules and a bad thing for the game or not, assuming they care at all.

If they decide it’s against the spirit of their rules and a bad thing for the game, it’s irrelevant that the practice is technically allowed, since Blizzard can just change the ToS like they did with multiboxing.

People are even getting dmca claims for showing art work from famous paintings in their videos now.

#132

Not to get involved, but I’m going to be real blunt here and say that you have some issues if you get this upset over being killed (presumeably in WM) while AFK and having an emote for it. I mean, I’d laugh if I got killed while AFK and someone did /kiss on me but hot damn my man, take a breather and consider the following: it’s a videogame.

As for the topic at hand? What Nnoggie is doing in his malding manbaby rage is against the ToS regarding addons, as Chronormi linked above charging for addons is against the TOS and frankly, it’s fun seeing the guy mald.
That said if the comments he got from the M+ crew weren’t nice I can’t really blame him for pulling it.

sry for my english ) , but in WA u can create ur own aura with toolkit of addon and in mdt i just cant find how to place mob mark on map ( maybe im blind), its not a problem to sell data , but it should be a way to create own data

#134

i read that the enemies are in a lua file like a text string. You need to reverse engineer the code to understand how mdt works. you can not use the addon alone ingame to make it work.

the dude removed the text in those lua files. like the database.

i dont know but this whole thing is fishy and not customer friendly. blizz needs to react here.
