Blue or GTFO imo
Found another person claiming that /follow is being removed in Legion. http://www.mmo-champion.com/content/...age=9#comments check the comment by roent(can't figure out how to link directly to the comment on MMO-Champion forums). I'm asking for a source from him because I don't believe it.
The reason they give doesn't even make sense, let alone there not being an actual source.
PvP leeches using /follow? Where exactly is this happening? Seeing as /follow was disabled in battlegrounds over two and a half years ago (March 2013), and was never a part of Ashran, it would appear that they're misinformed.Quote:
Probably because a blue poster said they're removing the /follow function. Something to do with PvP leeches.
Still can not get a client download to look in the api.
EDIT: i got the 7.0.1 WoWAPI (blizzard add-on changes) that us addondevs use to work out whats been changed in lines of api changes so i took a peek at the blinding's (KeyMap UI) and follow and ITW are both still in the game form the looks of it. This file has got changes from live so they have been working in it.

Thanks for the sleuthing Ebony!
Damn it, Ebony! You keep your "research" and "facts" out of this!
I jest, naturally. Cheers for looking that up. ^^
your welcome! i meen it ""might"" not work in-game but seems dum to leave the code there still, but everything else they removed thats going in xpac EG: ghyphs so one would think they would of cleared it up by now.
The facts always wins then some MMO-champ mine craft kiddey crying. ((funny how it was not posted on the wow forums))
or though they did remote this emote
Code:%s motions for you to follow.
Just more vomit from MMO-Champion.
I see from time to time that same crowd in game and on boards bitching about class envy ( not having the dough to pay for two accounts ) always complaining incessantly in the hopes that Blizzard gets fed up and takes action. Notice they never quit. It isn't a matter of their experience being made worse. It is their class envy that hurts.
No doubt this is exactly how /follow in BGs got removed. Personally if they really, truly want to stop 80 boxing, want to stop bots, want to stop all the abhorrent shit that goes on with the bots and multiboxing just do the following:
1. Limit /follow to battle net account.
2. Limit the number of characters that can be in any instance of WoW on a battle net account to a total of 5. Or whatever they feel comfy with someone multiboxing.
Getting rid of CTM will never happen as it creates too much overhead figuring out who legitimately needs it and who doesn't. Besides, the number one way to kill botting is to stop creating content around timesinks. Instead create around challenge. Nobody is going to run a bot for something like that.
follow was removed becouse they said many times it was the bot's and there was no real use for anyone (but mutiboxers) needed to follow in PvP. the outside would there is reason in there eyes follow is useful. just saying.
and if the lua files was not a nulf i got some in-game stuff.

They stated that it was held up because multiboxing in BGs was not wanted. According to them. They were alright with breaking our gameplay.
So my point to them is when is multiboxing ok and when isn't it? Get rid of the grey area and let the ruling stand.
I play more than one account because playing one account bores me to tears. It has nothing to do with gaining an advantage on anyone. I actually prefer 3s arena for starters, or 5 man dungeon runs on the hardest setting. I do it for the challenge and diversity which so many games sorely lack by design.
I want for them to set rules on multiboxing so that I know what I can and can't expect. Giving me back /follow and limiting my multiboxing to say, 2 or 3 accounts I'd be alright with that. I guess some would want more so maybe 5 but no more support beyond that.
There are good things and bad things about multiboxing like anything else that can be done with the game. The point is to recognize the good things multiboxing brings to the table and the bad things so that a reasonable decision can be reached.
