Swifty NPC

Swifty NPC shouldnt get remove as fast as you just did, he didnt even get to respond before you just nuke it from the game.

Its a spit in the face that you clearly have people telling you things swiftly and yet you refuse to change things because of greed.

The instance limit being changed to 30 a day is bullcorn, you know noone appreciated this change and yet you dont do anything, you knew people wanted this malefic core change prior to this and yet its just now implemented.

You knew people dislike the AP grind because of the artifical cap and the fact you could just wait a month and do 1/4th the amount of work to get the same reward, yet you did nothing until you saw it fit to arbitrarily change it for what is atleast the communities perception, money and greed.

My point is you clearly have a good overview of what the community actually thinks, yet you have some sort of garbage filter that somehow makes you see a change IN A DAY with something like Swifty’s NPC, yet when it comes to the demand for Classic WoW it literally took years. When people were telling you accessibility would be a huge detriment to the game, (something past game devs AND THE CEO Mike Morheim acknowledges) you flat out ignore it. Its literally patethic how disrespectfull you are to your playerbase, your reason for not implementing a PvP vendor? oh you wouldnt be able to find it.

Sad.

Maybe Blizzard talked to him in private. But his statement obviously denies the allegations.

So its nothing more than her word vs his, currently.

The big issue with these claims is people often assume the accused is guilty. Even if they’re proven innocent at the end of it all, the accused usually has a tainted reputation.

Sadly, Swift is no different.
An iconic WoW figure turned into a mistake to brush under the rug because of one unproved allegation.
It’s very sad.

If you post a rant like this could you give context so people that don’t follow social media drama 24/7 know whats going on?

The tl;dr for those that don’t know is: Swifty was accused of some things, and Blizzard removed his tribute NPC from the game.

There’s a topic over on the US forums for those that want to know more.

Very sad that the npc was removed. Loved his videos back in the day…

Bruh who and what?

What so many others said in the US forum I also agree that someone is innocent until proven guilty, Blizzard’s move is a bit too quick and without any doubt there was no thinking behind this decision.

Oh, you’re a BFA baby! :open_mouth:

One shot macro? Big warrior guy for classic wow. Been a very positive and humble figure for WoW.

If the allegations are true it will be so sad.

Why does this person warrant a tribute npc?

I have played since launch and until this day I had not heard of Swifty either.

Some people don’t follow content creators or YouTube or similar. The only one I ever really watched was the late, great John ‘Totalbiscuit’ Bain and I occasionally used to listen to The Instance podcast.

If the allegations are true it would not surprise me on the back of hearing about Method Josh yesterday (I follow Darrie on twitter).
