Follow In Battlegrounds Broken After 5.2

The follow command no longer seems to be working in Battlegrounds or Arenas, but still works in PvE instances, Arena, and the outside world.

EDIT: Confirmed working as intended - http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/8088199775

EDIT #94 - Bashiok responds to why follow was eliminated in BGs & Arena - http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/to...775?page=6#104

EDIT: Follow in Arena has been restored as of 3/19.

did you enable "load out of date addons"?

I was about to post the same thing. Works as normal outside of BG's. My follow macro doesn't work in BG's, nor does clicking on the drop down menu from a character icon. It gives the message "You can't follow that unit."

After some reports coming in on the #isboxer IRC channel I joined a battleground on my solo character, right-clicked another player's portrait, and clicked "Follow"

I received a "You cannot follow that unit" error message.

Yeah just got another report of that from some people on vent.

Crazy, I mean thats good for the big swarm of botters to get deterred but really kills those multi's that love to pvp in bgs

The reply has already been altered. Let's cross our fingers.
