    Oqueue's Final Update

    http://solidice.com/forums/12/topic/...te-oqueue-v205

    "It's been a crazy 2.5 years and we really appreciate the support everyone has shown. Now that blizzard will be embedding oQueue's core functionality into the game, and disabling a key function utilized by oQueue, oQueue should cease to function as of 6.0."

    Big thanks to Tinystomper for maintaining one of the most significant addons in WoW's recent history. There have been ups and downs but oQueue provided many raiding and PvP opportunities that would not have been available otherwise.

    Overall I'm thankful for oQueue but the updates and some features (which you couldnt even disable yourself) got annoying sometimes.

    But still, thanks for creating an addon that made this past year bearable.

    Props should be given. These guys made it possible for me to get my 7x9/9 CM Golds, all my alts at least SoO flex geared, a good number of RBGs, and much more. I, very likely, would not have gotten all that without OQ's help. If you're out there, Tiny, big thanks, man.

    Even though I preferred openraid for PvE related stuff, oqueue really helped me get 2k+ rbg rating on both my mage and priest. I don't know how I would have done it without oqueue on my pve server.

    Thanks for all the efforts Tiny, I know you read these forums!

    oQueue definitely saved the game for a lot of players. I just hope Blizzards version is just as good or better.

    The concept behind oqueue was phantastic and the feature itself was really well done for an addon that adds a complete new feature to WoW that wasn't even part of the core-game, but oqueue itself was the only addon that i really despised. Especially the many many features that it had that nobody really needed; if it was only the group-finder feature it would be phantastic, but why do we need a mysterious box with alliance/horde-points on the screen (when i didn't even knew what this points meaned), why does it replace the character portraits with class portraits and so on.

    I really are thankful to tiny for oqueue, but sorry, it was really a bloated addon with far too many features that had nothing to do with it's core feature. To have these feature is ok, but then it could be created modular, so that it would not confuse players.

    Oh yeah, there's no question that OQ was extremely bloated and poorly written, but it's a fantastic proof that none of that matters when it's the only option around and there's no room for any competition.

    People will put up with an amazing amount of annoying, unrelated features to get what they want.

    Terrible dev, great addon. Mostly. It will be missed.

    Without Oqueue I probably would have stopped playing WoW along time ago.

    Big thanks to Tiny for updating and maintaining this addon over the past couple of years.

    If you have ElvUI, then you need to check out ElvUI Shadow & Light. Enable Armory Mode. Now that is brilliant.

    Definite props to Tinystomper for this. It was an amazing tool, and he seemed to be patient with questions (even ingame) that came up on occasion.

    I stopped using OQ recently since I have a guild now, and I'm pretty much done with all the things OQ helped me to do. I didn't want to update, so I just disabled, and immediately missed the character screen gems/enchants/ilvl, so had to enable it again.

    It's really good to see that this functionality will still be available. It's a wonder that this doesn't exist ingame by default.

    Funny how a part time DJ/rapper in his 20's was able to make a better raid finder tool then Blizzard ever has in 5+ years.

    RIP Oqueue. You belong with the legends like DBM, Recount, Skada, Xperl, and Battleground Targets
