Can we get some support maybe petition to get /follow back in wow Bg's??

leveled my 5 shamans 1-90 during av weekend i was about to commit to 5 more accts to step it up

And that is the issue ... people found ways to circumvent the normal 5 player limit that can queue up for BG's and turn an already very powerful 5m team into unstoppable 10m teams that have 1 button god mode. While that's definitely my personal subjective opinion, I've always found that 5 players are the limit of what can be called common sense in pvp. I actually warned way ahead of the /follow removal that those big groups would lead to some sort of action taken by Blizzard. And while I can't prove it I believe if there were no 5+ boxers around in pvp, /follow would still be enabled in bg's.

They could re-enable /follow for me if:
- the one that gets followed has to confirm that the other one can follow
- no more than 5 toons can be in a 'follow' group
If not then I'd rather not see it making a come back.

I feel the same way i think it was a big step in there choice on the table that night. They removed av pefoum saying they do not want players queuing up more then 5+ yet more and more boxers was going to ten boxing. computers got better more windows was getting easier.
Everyone said they nerver stop them because of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ well they did.

My POV

Still don't get why everyone is crying over this. It was removed to stop the easy (free) youtube bot. That to many was using. Bg's are fine without follow and am having a lot of fun in them! (btw the other way to stop that bot we would of hated even more.)


i can not see anything changing till warlords to be fair.

We can hope it be added in hc bg's they talked about just before blizzcon. (the prob is if bots are going to get there way in the games again.)

last time i got told they was toying with /follow on battle.net as bots would not really use it and it stop the 8+ boxers in av that is not fun for anyone.

All posting on the forums and stuff makes us look like 3 year old not getting candy even to us. We have a lot of hate as it is. We are unsupported.

Hell its like the old school dual-boxing using 5 pc's to box on using focus macros removing all the key maps out of wow's ui so the "clones" don't go running off. That made it when your "leader" dead you was more of less F**KED them days without /follow i understand. Now a days it just makes life a little easyer. its just retraining your self to play the "new" way.

Many talks with players that got banned last week from gm's for calling me names in /bg and then reporting me at the end of the game it was not me that got banned it was them for calling me every thing under the sun ya they only got a 2 day ban but still. (they came back and said sorry lol was a nice guy in the end.)
