    Downgrading it to a 3 after anniversary patch, too much fomo, too much bugs, too much untesting too much filler or unfinished stuff.

    TWW has no inovations, content is ok but all of it could had been a massive patch doesnt feel a new expansion but what makes it worst its the quality, lots of bugs classes been balanced based on twitch clips due to bugs.

    Warlock been underpowered since the beginning of the expansion and taking a weeks to get sorted,specs with too much AOE but no ST or vice-versa(Fury warriros/Hunter) Blizzard giving buffs to already at the top specs just to hotfix 1 day later saying ooops, specs launching with massive bugs and untested damage like Elemental that create a uproar obviously to then be nerfed.

    20th anniversary patch with so much gate and fomo and useless content like Chrommie scenario and a Raid where they forgot to add a few items with mastery so that some specs just dont feel like running at all.

    Agree, I´m going to unsub for 2 or 3m, and wait for 11.1. It´s an above average expac, but it´s no WoLK, Legion or MoP.

I mean half of them suggested it was a UI issue even though there were dozens of threads and thousands of posts in the forums at that point. Eventually they boilerplate response was to make bug reports in the bug report forum, where the threads got locked almost immediately. Now they're saying the issue is resolved and restorations are completed, though "some people may not have gotten everything back".

    This is an absolute lie of course since not a single person across multiple forums have suggested they got anything more in the mail than a pittance of a couple stacks of cloth/meat and maybe some holiday items. And the mass majority of guilds have gotten nothing but awkward silence and redirects to the stickied post in the general forums promising restorations over a month ago.

    And I got threatened because I finally requested a supervisor, who very bluntly stated GMs don't restore items, they don't help players with bugs, they don't answer questions, and any issue players have with items in guild banks isn't their problem so deal with it or get banned. They he force resolved/closed the ticket.



    Mostly transmog weapons/armor. Like plundered gear from island expeditions, teebu's swords, rare drops from outdoor rares, world BoE items. Also a fair amount of pets and toys and patterns and mounts, including a TCG mount worth more than everything else I lost put together.
    Well once again. Sorry to hear of your plight but honestly this take sounds a bit suspect. I have personally dealt with GM's over my tenure in WoW almost 20 years now and I have gotten items restored and helped with bugs. OF course they aren't going to FIX a bug as a GM isn't able to deal with that directly, that's the job of the programmers. However they do and have aided with work-arounds. I have also had tickets elevated in the odd event something couldn't be handled at the GM level. So idk man. Good luck hope things work out.

    Disagree with you. Argus was a boring patch where you spent your time being dazed or killing pointless demons because the map was so small they had to fill it with monsters. Also the whole 2D mountain was really ugly.

    I've dealt with GMs too over the years, to restore items and fix character glitches and report in-game bugs I saw others exploiting. Also I've seen them restore guild banks wiped out by hacked officers, everything restored and back to its original place too. Which is why I kept reopening my ticket after they gave me so many copy/paste responses saying they don't restore items, they don't fix bug damage, they don't report to developers, only devs can fix these things and they have no line of communication anymore to devs. And when I finally requested a supervisor and got a real boy response it was just a non-polite and very direct statement that they cannot fix or restore anything and to drop it or I'll get dropped instead.

    Just from my experience from working with (not videogame related) databases i could imagine that, if you delete an item in wow, it does not really gets deleted but gets a 'deleted' flag of some sort for some time.
    And i guess the GMs have some tool where they can see these flagged items and remove the flag and thus undelete the item.

    But, if the items haven't been deleted through the normal methods but have been actually removed from the database by faulty code, a GM can't do anything. The devs would have to restore these items from an earlier database backup and this can be a tricky process, even in the small databases i work with, let alone the behemoth that wow must have.
    So i could imagine both is correct, they can restore some items but they can't restore others.

    This may be the case. But I would suggest a compromise. Of course this won't be a one size fits all approach but maybe they could look at those old database lists of items people lost and provide some sort of renumeration in the form of gold for an estimate of the prices of items lost. There are already sites that keep track of WoW commodities and what they sell for on average. So yes it would take a bit of work but maybe less than actually restoring them as you say. For instance if a guild bank had 200 stacks of ore averaging 1500g a stack (of course these are inflated numbers), then the person would get back 300k gold.
