    Oh god, AB without ground mounts.
    Lord have mercy, Horde domination with Shamans confirmed, Classic Bias at its finest! /s

    This has to be my favorite Classic era Battleground, after Nyalotha progression dies down and my cloak is 15+ I may come back for this.

    I like how they just finish banning people for botting and afking in battlegrounds, then use a screen capture of a warlock crafting while afking at the mines.

    That’s actually a Forsaken Rogue, and since it’s at an Alliance flag it’s safe to assume the animation is capturing the flag.

    So you’re telling me that a Warlock is wearing Rogue tier gear and a universal animation means that it’s automatically crafting something because it’s a picture of a bot?
    Get the fuck out of here with that.

    But even if he was crafting something, what would be the issue exactly?

    Is it forbidden in AB? I lost count of battles back then where I decided to defend a flag and nobody came to that flag for minutes.

    Sometimes it's better to make it obvious that there is no point to what you are saying than saying something where you are wrong on all counts and act like you have a clue.
