What happen to all the videos and instruction sticky post that was in the old PVE Forum? The new Forum is very confusing. It looks like its a thread for each boss which is good for the new instances but where is all the old threads with good heroic info?
If they were movie threads, they are in the movies section. (if there is one specific one that is actually a tutorial and very clean - not heavy metalpoloza on ice - report it and I'll see if I can merged / move it where it needs to go. if they are just "look at me kicking ass" movies, they're staying in movies)
If they are "look at me I finished this instance, yay!" threads, they were moved into MMORPG - WoW.
....etc
As you mentioned, one thread PER BOSS for WotlK instances (Halls of Reflection and Violet hold I'll probably leave as one, because they are encounters as a whole, not really bosses).
Burning Crusade and Classis will get one thread per instance. All the old stuff (that is on topic) will be left there - but we're attempting to clean up forum and make it easy to find and discuss things. Cross-Boss posts (mixing threads) will be agressively purged. "lol I win" or "look at me" posts will also be purged.

What happen to the sticky that had links to tutorials on how to clear all the Wotlk 5mans instances? That was a good thread.
To quote myself in this very thread...

Could be wrong, but it looks like that's exactly what he did.Quote:

Funny.. I don't see any reported posts...
They're reported now :D And I stuck 1, and bumped the other.Quote:

Well, I reported them with the little button, then, since I'm not sure if he did it. I assumed him bringing it to your attention would suffice, but I guess if it needs to be official, we can make it official.
You'd have a bright future in a career as a Governmental Forms Clerk, Furs. haha. Serious business. :D
I spent 4.5 years in the USMC, does that count? (along with 6+ months of that as a US Postal worker)Quote:

....and thanks for finding and reporting those threads. :)
Yah! I think that counts. haha
n/p on the reporting.
That thread is one of the best PVE threads on the forums. I think all the links to each tutorial is broken because of the change over on the forums. Thanks for finding it and putting it back up. It's very helpful for the people grinding badges with the new random dungeon system. Hell, I may even reactivate my accounts to do the new 5 mans. I am fighting the addiction off with all my energy. I dont know how long my shield will hold.
I must point out the obvious flaw in your statement. Farming badges. if you are farming, you know WTF you are doing, and don't need a thread.Quote:

If you come across a boss you don't know how to handle, our new model would be much more beneficial than the old system of wade through 500 posts of shit.

I prefer the single thread to a boss method because I don't want to wade through pages and pages of posts that may or may not have info on the boss I'm on. I'd rather go find a single place (thread) that has all the relevant information I need to kick ass and lewt epix.
