Looks like we have a necromancer over here, didn’t know we have them in classic
Read the box you click “I Agree” on when you make a Hardcore character, it’s there, as stated in the second post in this very thread.
And don’t necro old threads just before they are due to be closed.
I agree with the statement that we agreed to it,
still losing tons of players due to unstable servers it not a good way to present your product to the customers, especially in HC mode.
And as we all can see: Playerbase got huge losses after each servercrash. From 2000 waiting queue to only high population on stitches.
my bet is that 80% of the quitters are due to unstable servers.
TLTR: In the long run Blizzard is only damaging their reputation and is losing most of the players due to their inability to present stable servers.
My personal experience: Died to a mob with a level 26 mage, mob having 5hp left running away slowed due to a disconnect where i couldnt even log back in for around one minute.
And if that happens again, I will also quit HC although I enjoy it a lot besides the server instability.

What’s with the ‘we are better than you’ smear you guys are writing - so what we ticked the ‘agree’ button only about 5% read it, and even those 5% deserve to be treated better, and some of you plays on here write stuff like this, how is that helping eh? people who spend hours and hours playing HC then die not of their fault are obviously worthless and have NO voice right? they should be heard and not brow beaten down by a load of stressed out keyboard warriors. For anyone at Blizz reading this i will cancel my subs, my rejoining to by HC caused 3 other players to try HC if i cancel they will cancel and i will recommend anyone NOT to play HC as their is no point until it is a fair game to play, its a bit like asking a pro golfer to play on a crappy golf run down golf course they’d try it out maybe but would never go back!
Stockholm syndrome right here.
blame the players and victimize the company.

What on earth are you on about? I’m not blaming any players and victimising the company? hahaha - Listen and learn: it’s called having an opinion thats what forums are for right? to express a person’s opinion even if we all disagree - i think my point is valid i stand by it and i have a right to say it, said with constructive criticism, you should learn to have some respect for other peoples point of view i respect yours but i obviously disagree.
why not make use of the character stuck service. it places your char to the next nearest graveyard. This is what i did after a dc in a cave. Beware, it has a 4h cooldown.
Character unstuck command may strait up kill your HC character and teleport him to nearest graveyard if it doesn’t finds suitable path to get him out. Do not use it on HC, wait for HS CD!
Is this just your opinion or do you have any evidence to support this statement? At least i worked for me on the map in Dustwallow, underwater, where my client keeps crashing constantly near the elite shark - so HS was no option for me - lucky i had the breath buff with 2min remaining. Last resort was to use Character unstuck command.
And at least in the mo’grosh-cave, where i lost my connection to the internet for about an half of an hour, i did the same after i was back online - because i know, this cave is now full with mobs. Lucky my char was still alive.
I belive, if the character is already dead, it’s only because it was killed by an NPC during the timeout phase, but not by the Character Unstuck Service.
of course, you should avoid this - whenever possible.
E: Used it today in the cave near Hammerfall. my Char was ported to the camp fire underneath the three stones next to refuge pointe.
Yeah, that’s the GY thereabouts 
People don’t need to state the obvious that we’ve all agreed to the certain terms. It’s a way for a company to protect itself but it is not unusual exceptions are made in certain cases.
You can also see it this way; blizzard owns all the data that’s contain all of our character, if they like they could rename all characters to Herpaderpa43 derpherp1 hurrdurr2 and derpaherp99. That’s the terms you signed up for as well. That doesn’t mean it’s appropriate and wouldn’t be met with protests.
Same principle goes if a server goes offline and costumers lose their HC character because of that. The decent thing to do would be a roll back in such cases for those players affected.
