Warcraft loses 1.3 million subscribers over the last 3 months.

If Blizz want to hit booting very hard - they just need to remove "clik to move" not just follow from the game

Removing CTM would not have an impact on the bots.

I believe its no coincidence that the follow change came quickly after Holinka(the new pvp dev) arrived at bliz. If you have read his tweets on the subject you would see that there is no love lost regarding boxing in bgs. Its easy for me to believe that it was sold to the other devs as a way to combat botting while also accomplishing whatever personal grievances he and probably a couple of others at blizzard had.

Even if they allow it, who would risk MBing the next Blizzard MMO, knowing they can pull the carpet out from under you at the drop of a hat!
Really staggeringly piss-poor customer service from Blizztard!

Did you miss the section in the rules where there's a no tolerance policy for attacking members of this community? Just because someone disagrees with you {or someone else} doesn't give you the right to attack them on a personal level.

I may have sounded a little harsh, without really meaning it, so I apologize. When you make analogies about people here, you are directly attacking them. Basically you're comparing us with people who stalk their exes and wish them dead. That's a much more disturbing attack on your part than what I said. My message still stands: stop judging people. Everyone has the right to feel as upset as they want about anything they want.

If this is true, then I'm concerned about the way Blizzard makes decisions. If even after the /follow removal botting is still strong in BGs, it means their decision was emotional like you said, not a real business decision.

I want to take a big fat poo on the CEOs chest. That's how i feel. 10s of thousands of dollars in this game.

I told you guys it was coming. You can only be a dick to people for so long before they quit, or blizzard has to step in and defend the other 92% of the population.

You can replace 'Blizzard' with any other MMO out there, and the statement would still make sense.

[Ualaa]

While it could be removed from any of them... Blizzard has set the precedent that they will pretend to like boxers by defending that style of play for years, and then without warning remove an essential tool for boxing.

So it could happen anywhere, but it has happened with Blizzard.
An unknown chance of what might happen with another company, against one who has already taken the action in Warcraft.

This would break the main bot program instantly with little to no chance of it returning.

I'm curious, does anyone here use click to move, for either your master toon or your slaves? I have never used it, I keyboard or middle mouse to go forward and right click to turn. I struggled with D3 for ages due to the click-to-move system.

If I am not mistaken, melee teams rely on CTM to stick with a moving target.

[Multibocks]

I think they meant for bots. That removing CTM would have an impact on the bot population, but most likely it won't. However CTM was put in for handicapped people and I doubt they would remove it now. Imagine the public bashing they would take.
