    Interesting....


    Also they added a feature showing post count.

    well the wow forums have always been a big circle jerk so something like this enforces it.

    Well, at least Blizzard is hard at work, improving something.

    I just didn't think it would be the forums.

    The next improvement I hope to see is removing all user access.

    Hah. Though, given the level of quality generally found on the official forums, I think that probably would be an improvement.

    Likes and Dislikes have been around on forums way before Reddit.

    I love the people with like 75,000 posts. Like how do you do that?

    I never considered official forums as a good information source (everything gets datamined and discussed on MMO-Champ which is easier to use for me), some people getting 75k posts is insane!

    The wow forums are largely useless to me.

    You play an MMO namely WoW, and you discuss all sorts of things not relating to the game in trade chat, guild chat, friends, random groups.

    But on the forums god help you if you do anything but praise wow and only wow.

    I'd probably hang out on there a lot more if I didn't have to use my authenticator to log in constantly. They should really make a single sign-in system throughout the forums shared with the one in the BNet client. I like the way it remembers my auth like forever as well.

    I just checked my old D2 forums account, I had 36k posts there.

    I had a lot of free time to fill at uni and nothing installed but a web browser :P

    Some loser was asking for dislikes to be taken away because some mentally broken people might fall into a deep depression if someone negs their post. jesus christ

    hasn't this been this way for quite a while?

    Even so, that's a lot of spam posting. They are dedicated to it.
